plan tocontinue and make it an integral part of the exams in the future.MethodsThree courses taught by the instructors were selected for adding partial credit during exams inthe Blackboard-based automated grading system. The courses were Thermodynamics (foursections), Engineering Statistics (one section), and Dynamics (one section). These are coursestaken in the student’s Junior year. Engineering Statistics is a required course for all engineeringmajors. Thermodynamics is required for Mechanical and Chemical engineering. OnlyMechanical and Civil engineering students are required to take Dynamics. In Thermodynamicsand Engineering Statistics, students did their homework assignments on Blackboard, whilestudents used Mastering Engineering for

engineering students to work effectively in teams, writing that“because of the increasing complexity and scale of systems-based engineering problems, there isa growing need to pursue collaborations with multidisciplinary teams of experts across multiplefields” [1, pp. 34–35]. ABET has similarly dedicated one of its seven student outcomes toteamwork, wording it as: “An ability to function effectively on a team whose members togetherprovide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks,and meet objectives” [2]. Research studies have also repeatedly underlined the importance ofdeveloping engineering students’ abilities to work in teams to meet industry needs [3], [4].As a result, there has been an increased

The new lab was separated into three steps in a three-week period.During the first week, students were asked to plan the experiment, which included the purpose ofthe lab, the list of lab equipment, list of lab materials, detailed experiment procedures, the data tobe collected, and the goals to reach, in a group of three or four students.During the second week, the group worked on their designed experiments

This involves defining specific and measurablegoals that align with students’ perspectives. The project underscores collaboration, fosteringco-creation, and student- led leadership, diverging from other top-down methods by elevatingstudents’ voices and promoting student agency by positioning students as leaders, rather thanrecipients, of institutional change projects.Against this backdrop, this paper asks: how might storytelling methods, that shift the role ofstudents from research participant to research collaborator, provide insight into students.experiences?Storytelling stands at the

relatively brief peer comments, so weconsidered other models. In our search of frameworks and rubrics, we observed that a significantamount of the peer feedback literature is based in medical education because commonpedagogical practices in the field, such as clinical rotations, necessitate immediate feedback froman instructor. Still, their approaches can likely be applied to other group or team-based learningsettings. A well-known approach to evaluating teamwork behaviors includes the TeamUP rubric.The TeamUP rubric was developed in the form of a Likert-scale survey for midwifery studentsand includes five domains: planning, environment, facilitating the contributions of others,managing conflict, and contributing to the team project [20].

While making the CAM survey items more appropriate to Latinaengineering students, this approach would still leave the two research stages disjointed andunconnected since ethnic identity is a narrowly focused construct that fails to encompass allrelevant parameters. Greater coherence is achieved by incorporating aspects of the CCWMmodel in the first-stage survey instrument. Using Hiramori’s [20] quantitative implementation ofthe CCWM as a guide to modify CAM survey items related to racial identity [5], we willleverage the quantitative first stage results for planning the qualitative CCWM framework in thesecond stage of our study.

Without treatment, mental healthsymptoms can become more severe, frequent and/or resistant to treatment [3]. Failure to seek helpis also linked to adverse academic outcomes such as decreased college satisfaction and academicperformance [4-7]. In contrast, students who seek mental health treatment may receive medication,coping strategies, accommodations, treatment plans, and diagnoses, which can benefit studentstress levels, problem-solving skills, and overall mental health [8, 9].

These standards are dynamic and arenot defined by a single act but rather a set of small actions. As such, it is possible that teams holdstandards that they are not explicitly aware of or did not aim to set.

Accreditation of undergraduate degree programsin engineering, such as by ABET, currently requires programs to demonstrate students’ ability to“identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles ofengineering, science, and mathematics”[1]. Traditional assessment data can lack reliablegranularity [2] to measure problem-solving skills. Reliable granularity is the reliability (oragreement) of assessment across instructors while quantifying problem-solving processes withaccurate granularity. We propose a new method using

For the most part, this education inpractice consists of combining students into groups and letting them explore teamwork dynamicsthrough self-determination (i.e., figuring it out as they go). This sort of situational, experientialeducation mimics to some extent what happens in the engineering workplace, where individualswith unique skill sets are tasked with working together to achieve a common goal.
