opportunity between engineering and the arts through thedevelopment of a “Special Topics: Interactive Fiction” course was developed and subsequentlyapproved by the curriculum committees of both colleges for the 2022-2023 academic year. Whilethe remainder of this paper focuses on this Interactive Fiction course, the authors want toacknowledge the key roles played by the instructors involved in these preceding courses.2023 - Interactive Fiction: Goals and LogisticsThe two primary goals for the Interactive Fiction course were (1) for students to learn how to usea natural language software platform, such as Inform [30], to design an interactive game in a waythat reflects the diversity of cultures and experiences encountered during the era of

Boundaries of Engineering Education.AbstractGenerative artificial intelligence (GAI) has long been used across various fields; however, itsusage in engineering education has been limited. Some areas where GAI tools have beenimplemented in education include intelligent tutoring, assessment, predicting, curriculum design,and personalized student learning. The recent proliferation of CHATGPT and other GAI toolspresents limitless possibilities for transforming engineering pedagogy and assessment. At thesame time, there are challenges associated with implementation. Consequently, there is a need toconduct an empirical study to evaluate these tools' strengths, limitations, and challenges tohighlight potential opportunities for their application in

Intelligence (AI) applications have become an integral part of our lives, from socialapplications on smartphones to crewless vehicles. However, as they remain in the domain of“computer magic,” these new advancements of knowledge processing and reasoning using AI toolswill not be of a great benefit to humanity, unless a complementary education environment isprovided to help students and communities become involved in this scientific revolution early,ethically, and systematically. Introducing and exploring AI concepts and basics earlier in thestudents’ learning journey will help address the future AI job market needs as well as AI ethicsissues and will open the door for new innovative AI applications in all segments of life.

Although this paper focuses on a wheeledmobile robot, some of these characteristics would still stand. One-quarter of the respondents statedthat they taught their course with an articulated manipulator while another one-quarter usedground-based indoor mobile robots.2.3 Unified Robotics Curriculum Berry et al. [2] proposed that the benefits of robotics to all ages could be improved withthe creation of a unified curriculum that translates to multiple backgrounds. The authors concludethat having a standard framework for a robotics curriculum may provide a means to assess theeffectiveness and value of robotics

InitiativesInitiatives to address technical interview preparation for CS majors are expanding. Companiesand organizations alike are making resources available for students to prepare for technicalinterviews [1, 13, 26, 32]. In academic settings, institutions have also begun to expand theirresources and/or adjust their CS curriculums in an effort to foster student exposure to thetechnical interview process [8, 12, 35]. Moreover, academic scholars are now conducting casestudies and related interventions to tackle potential challenges that are associated with thetechnical interview process [7, 20, 23, 25].2.3.1.

moved from theory toreal-world applications, and the need for skilled engineers has grown. Therefore, many collegesand universities are strategizing ways to provide students with hands-on experiences to developthe needed practical skills in industry. One of the pillars of I4.0 is human-machine interactionwhich includes robotics and automation. Undergraduate degrees need to provide appliedknowledge of robots that use modern controllers and other integrated hardware rather than theclassic robotic design. The curriculum should provide the students with real-world experienceswith real hardware. This paper presents the steps of designing and constructing a reconfigurableand affordable industrial robotic arm platform that can be used to teach

In most of these topics, equity incomputing is still forming and not widely seen as an integral part of the discipline.N. Washington [31] discusses the glaring omission of non-technical issues from the CScurriculum that would allow CS students, and future professionals, to understand, analyze, andoffer solutions about the inequity and lack of representation that exists in computing. Dr.Washington argues that there is a need for all CS students to have a level of cultural competenceso that students can begin to understand, critically analyze and look for solutions that willimprove equity in our field.

In one initiative called “A’s for All (as time and interestallow)”, students are given the support to achieve the proficiency they want (not necessarily an A)as long as they are willing to put in the time and effort, thus providing students more control

equity, inclusion, andoverall representation in these areas need to be addressed more. In recent years, there has been arise of college-to-company pipeline initiatives with the purpose of increasing thedisproportionately under-representation of black women in tech. However, there has only been aslight increase in the representation of black women in tech from these initiatives, which stillindicate an insufficient level of their representation in tech.The objective of this research is to examine critical factors that impact the representation ofblack women in CS. To look at such factors directly, this article discusses a case-study consistingof a series of focus groups conducted on 24 black women, who were either current CS majors orrecent
