. Teamwork skills areshown at the very top as the most common attribute. However, it is a frequent observation byprofessors that students usually limit the teamwork strategy to an initial distribution of tasks(generally predetermined by the structure of the projects) and occasional meetings to assemblethe contributions in reports or presentations (“divide and conquer” strategy). Experiences withsenior students have proved that they rarely rely on effective planning, revisions, and updates ofa general plan. Team identity is taken for granted as defined exclusively by the expectation ofgetting a good grade. Techniques learned in the short first-year training, like the team contract,are hardly followed. No records of progressive work are taken

that assessment was not inclusive enough for minoritygroups, despite recent curriculum changes to include more coursework. Literature supportsthe argument that very little has changed in terms of tried and tested assessment methods e.g.closed exams, and that student choice and universal design for assessment need to be betterprioritised going forward [17].As part of the planned updates, it is important that students take some ownership ofdiscussion and activity around EDI and that it resonates with them and their livedexperiences.

The goal of this deliverable is for the student toprovide an oral preliminary report where the lab instructor can provide feedback on experimentalplans and preliminary results as well as insight on how to plan for the third and final lab day. Theuse of the video was to give students additional opportunities to improve their oral presentationskills while preventing any loss of lab time. The ~10-12 min oral presentation is given during thescheduled lab period and is graded by both the primary instructor and lab instructor. The writtenreport is due 24 hours after the oral presentation so that students can use the questions andfeedback

flipped model I had been using forthese lessons.So, what was I to do with the class time? Another idea that I had gleaned from conversationswith students was that they didn’t remember much from their computer science Introduction toComputing courses because it seemed impractical. “Hello, world” and other programs they hadbeen asked to write were not related to what they saw as their future career. My goal, therefore,was to demonstrate relevance to my students. Thus, each problem they were asked to solveneeded to relate to chemical engineering. This was made more challenging by the fact that thestudents had very limited knowledge of what chemical engineering was at the time they weretaking this course. My plan was to demonstrate a variety of

Troubleshooting is afundamental skill that instructors would like their students to gain from experience in alaboratory course, but assessing this skill can be challenging.In this study, we tested a method to holistically test students’ ability to troubleshoot a chemicalengineering problem in a laboratory course.

As detailed in an editorial, this change was prompted by LisaBenson’s comments at an ASEE presentation about how journals can play a role in DEI [14].Using the values, attitudes, beliefs approach to analysis, we can characterize a developmentaltrajectory suggested by this requirement. Specifically, while many authors might holdsituationally ascribed values that DEI is important, many may not take this value up as anenduring attitude or a belief that guides their actions as they plan studies, develop learningexperiences, conduct analysis or evaluation, and communicate their results. By adding the DEIrequirement, CEE inserted a “rule for acting” that

The data are summarized for eachsemester as the count of assessments that are either above or below the designated criteria of 3.0,per each SO and by either I, R, or A assessment type. A principal result indicated in thissummary format is the fact that 50% or more of assessments are below 3.0 for SOs 1, 2 and in afew cases, for SOs 6 and 7. A possible cause may be the relatively wide range of engineeringstudent performance our program experiences, since it is not a Tier 1 school where GPArequirements for graduation are typically more stringent.
