Reflecting on these two episodes and their implications formy instructional practice led to the following research questions: 1. In what ways does confusion manifest in an interactive classroom environment? 2.

these twovariables relate.Related workThe project involves measuring two desired outcomes of laboratory courses: self-efficacy andtroubleshooting ability. This section reviews previous literature on these two outcomes.The concept of self-efficacy states that a person with high self-efficacy, i.e., a strong belief intheir ability to succeed at a task, is more likely to succeed at that task than someone with lowerself-efficacy, even if the two people have the same underlying ability [2]. Increasing self-efficacy is thus a common goal of courses. Kolil et al. [3] studied students in chemistrylaboratories and identified four barriers to developing ESE: 1. Lack of conceptual understanding (CU) of the underlying phenomena, 2. Fear of

formalcooperative learning groups are set up as a structured team with members depending on teammembers for success on the assigned project. The Johnson and Johnson model on socialinterdependence theory [5] incorporates 5 essential elements of co-operative learning: positiveinterdependence, individual accountability, promotive interaction, appropriate use of socialskills, and team evaluation. It is generally found that more well-defined cooperative learninggroups with strong positive interdependence work the best for student engagement and learning[9]. Collaborative learning refers to an active learning environment in which studentscollaborate in small groups towards a common goal [1], but groups are generally less structuredthan in co-operative learning

-making opportunities.Our approach to promote student engagement and belonging in engineering is to investigate therole of consequential agency in laboratory experiments. To determine the effect agency has onstudents, we explore how different aspects of laboratory experiments contribute to students’development through a survey used to measure consequential agency as well as engineeringidentity, relevance, and persistence intentions.The goal of the project is to extend theory about agency in learning and the development ofprofessional identity in upper division chemical engineering laboratory courses. Specifically, weinvestigate how agency in four domains—(1) experimental design prior to doing the laboratoryexperiment; (2) data collection and

considered on their own, many of the changes seen here match expectations of the course faculty. (1) Teamwork is a large portion of the first-year engineering sequence with required team projects in both semesters. This is less emphasized in CBE 20255; therefore, it is unsurprising for that to be less emphasized in student response post-course. (2) Resilience rises in mentions in the study group while falling in the control group. In the study group, resilience and persistence were common themes of class lectures and office hours. This was a deliberate inclusion when students struggled, especially around large assessments. Therefore, class instruction can be linked to this

The goal of the concept map was to provide students with an alternative form fororganizing their thoughts and recognizing what gaps remained in their understanding of, researchon, or argument for their topic. The assignment included a brief reflection asking the students toshare what new connections the map allowed them to see and what “unfinished business” itsurfaced. Students

While results from this study provide valuable insight, it is important to recognizethat our findings are not representative of the broader population of industry professionals due to thesmall sample size. These trends also may have emerged due to the shared mindset of those holding similarjob roles, or due to company policy or culture of the participants working for the same company.
