These themeshighlighted the growth and development of preservice teachers' technological, pedagogical, andcontent knowledge (TPACK), reflective practices as future K-12 STEM teachers, and thepromotion of access and equity of educational technology in STEM education. We suggest thatmore longitudinal case studies with quantitative and qualitative analyses are needed to furtherexplore what aspects of STEM preservice teachers’ subsequent teaching practicum might beenhanced by the use of collaborative technologies during the micro

Computer Science (A Case Study)Abstract:As technology continues to evolve and spaces in the field of Computer Science (CS) areexpanding, the promotion of equity, inclusion, and representation for all need to reflect thisevolution and expansion. Even though efforts have been made to address such challenges forwomen and minorities in CS, more work needs to be done. This is especially the case for blackwomen, who account for less than 3% of the tech workforce. As Computer Scientists, blackwomen face regular affronts to their character and capabilities because of their race and gender.While the combination of racial and gender discrimination have spanned over decades for blackwomen in CS, the tech industry, and related spaces, efforts regarding their

At the same time, another work [9] that takes a multidisciplinary approach provides a retrospective view of theevolution of low-code platforms, elucidating their strategic integration with ERP systems. It reflects on thehistorical progression from model-driven development to the current state where low-code platforms are essentialin enhancing business processes, fostering agility, and enabling

Besides standard motions (translations and rotations), the virtual model can beused to study scaling (dilations), reflections and shears which are not possible with the physicalmodel. For example, a 2D reflection can be implemented by lifting a triangle up out of the 2Dplane into 3D space, flipping it over and putting it down again in the plane [9].

They may either be interested in Minecraft or have fond memories of it. Their positive experience with Minecraft could serve as a foundation for developing an interest in computer programming. 2) Minecraft allows us to create a virtual world that reflects reality: the identity of the players and the socio-cultural context. We want these students' identities to be represented to encourage engagement, particularly from underrepresented students. Minecraft allows us to create characters of different races, genders

Likewise, tech companies have begunworking closely with minority-serving institutions in efforts to provide insight on the type ofcomputational skills and programming proficiency a student (or prospective employee) mustpossess for success in these sectors [11, 22, 33].

Academic integrity research argues that meaningfulsupportive feedback empowers students, reducing their likelihood to cheat [15].

For instance, in the case of anotherelectronics course that utilizes different versions or manufacturers of instruments, developers caneasily extend the virtual lab to accommodate these new requirements with minimal changes. Thisprimarily involves updating the graphical model to reflect the different appearances of the newinstruments. Additionally, the physical model may be modified if there is a need to adjust thesimulation of the instruments’ physical behaviors, such as their interactions or movements withinthe virtual space. The functional model often remains unchanged, as the core functions of similarinstruments in electronics labs typically stay consistent. Figure 3 illustrates the three types

limitation is mostlikely due to the FPGA’s ability to connect two ALMs during the routing process, where a wirewith a width larger than 1120 cannot be connected between two ALMs. The data we report onlygoes up to a maximum bit-width of 1024, so this limitation is not reflected in our graphs. Also,the Goldschmidt divider has a smaller range than the other dividers because it was not able tosynthesize above a width of 244. This is due to the limited number of DSP blocks.4.1 AreaThe FPGA used in these tests is the 5CGXFC9E7F35C8 from the Cyclone V line. This FPGA ischosen due to its large amount of available ALMs and DSP blocks. The maximum ALMs that ourFPGA has in this study is 113,560.
