], which introducessome active programming teaching methods. Portela employed four approaches to develop theinstructional plan, namely: BYOD, flipped classroom, gamification, and using the skills ofindividual students to solve posed problems. Tewolde presented a method for improving studentmotivation in a microcontroller-based embedded systems course to enhance students’ role inactive learning [10]. The method consists of three tools, namely: laboratory assignments forpractical hands-on activities, “peer teaching” techniques, and self-proposal, which enablesindividual creativity. For some complex and difficult to understand courses such as programmingalgorithms-related subjects, Garcia et al. [11] proposed a method in the form of

lost in differentlecture styles or written material. The college students being the coaches of each video comparesto peer-teaching which can enrich the learning experience by offering an additional layer ofsupport and engagement alongside the expertise of professors. These videos were intended not as replacements for the lecture materials but ascomplementary resources to reinforce newly acquired knowledge for a deeper understanding.Further, they would serve as valuable review tools not only for students currently enrolled butalso for upperclassmen seeking to refresh their programming skills. This enhances conceptretention and increases student engagement, potentially leading to improved attendance,participation, and grades in computer

resources they need for general well- being or success in specific metrics” [11,p. 4]. In this definition they connect “fair conditions” with “individuals and groups” and thesuccess in whatever endeavor being evaluated (e.g., “specific metrics”), but clearly at the outcomeof the endeavor.A report calling for technology design to be more inclusive provides another take on thechallenges we face trying to understand equity and equality. In [12], equality is defined aseveryone having “the same opportunity” even if it affords some in the group “an existing (andoften unconscious) unfair advantage.” In contrast, equity means everyone getting an opportunitythat levels the “playing field with their peers” thus increasing the “fairness to compete.”In summary

Academic Integrity ViolationsThe vast majority of actionable academic integrity reports can be grouped into two categories; (1)using a cell phone or smartwatch during an exam or (2) bringing course material into the lab eitherin the form of a cheat sheet or written on their body. However, we have also seen other studentbehaviors develop which have required us to institute new exam policies. Restrictions regardingwhen students could begin writing on their scratch paper is a good example of a policy changethat occurred in response to student behavior. Until recently, students were allowed to write ontheir scratch paper as soon as they were seated in the lab, a policy based on the assumption thatonce in the lab any information that was written on the
