application displays which students had correct answers sothese students were chosen to explain why they did not choose the incorrect answers. These stu-dents were selected because the instructor did not wish to single out students who got the questionwrong.An addition to the peer instruction model being followed here is the requirement that studentswrite down the questions and their answers to them. The instructor emphasizes that writing downthe question and all the answers, correct or otherwise, is important to their learning [12]. At theend of each class sessions students must turn in a PDF document with their individual answers aswell as the answer arrived at after group discussion. Students were also instructed to write downwhy any of their

-ended questions about the Guild usingthematic analysis. The findings demonstrated that the participants perceived the workshop asvaluable and enabled them to see how computing can be a medium to solve problems of humaninterest as well as a tool of self-expression. In particular, participants reported that the empatheticassistance given by the peer mentors made the learning process smoother, thus making itinspiring, engaging, and less intimidating. Going forward, more experiments and fine-tuning areneeded to continue to scale and improve the Guild. However, we hope the description of ourworkshop and findings from our investigation encourage other researchers and educators toconsider similar approaches to engage women and non-binary students in

projects that they completed. The logs were graded by the instructors for completeness. The struggles portion of the log format was used to provide additional resources or supplements. The instructors provided samples of good learning logs to help students with the content and writing. The format for the learning log can be found in Appendix C. 3. Peer Assessment: Students worked in learning groups and met weekly to engage in learning activities and problem solving. These sessions were documented to reflect on the learning that took place within the group. Students came together to discuss the grading and comments provided by the instructor and to learn from each other. The learning groups worked

Theory uses a formalized network diagraming convention to model environmentalsettings [13]. The network diagram consists of a Subject, Mediating Artifacts, Object, andOutcome. The Subject uses external (LMS, computer devices) and internal (plans, strategies)tools to complete an Object (milestone) thereby achieving a desired Outcome. The tools, alsoknown as Mediating Artifacts, are imbued with cultural, historical, and social significance.Mediating Artifacts influence the behavior of the Subject using them, and in turn, the largersocial environment the Subject inhabits. A simple example is shown in Fig. 1. A Subject(Student) is tasked with writing a report on “Activity Theory” (Outcome). The Student (Subject)uses ChatGPT, Wikipedia, and Google

Introductoryprogramming courses such as database programming and design represent crucial milestones inIT education, as they reflect students' ability to solve problems and design appropriate solutions.But, for novice programmers learning SQL (Structured Query Language) programming andlogical database design concepts is a challenging task because while writing SQL programs,students not only have to apply

., classenvironment, course sequence) is vital to improve student learning and persistence in CS.B. CS Curriculum Design There have been great strides in determining potential areas of improvement among CScourses and programs [e.g., 26, 27, 28]. One area of literature focuses on college students nothaving the necessary skills and knowledge to work in the industry [29, 30, 31, 32]. In regard totheir soft skills, graduates tend to struggle with their verbal [31, 33] and writing [28, 30, 34]skills, in particular, clearly articulating their problems when they need help [29]. In regard totechnical skills, graduates often lack the ability to use a number of industry software tools, suchas configuration management and database tools [29, 32, 35]. Another
