contributed to the refinement ofthe observation protocol we had created. This protocol will play a key role in the larger NSF studydedicated to exploring the role of language in introductory engineering courses.Literature ReviewIn the social and behavioral sciences, direct observations are considered to be the base or root ofall research methods [1], [2]. Their main benefit of observations as a qualitative data collectionmethod is that they allow “for the researcher to see and record firsthand the activities in whichresearch participants are engaged in the context(s) in which these activities happen” [3, p. 160].Moreover, observations allow researchers to collect data about phenomena that the participantsmight not be aware of themselves and therefore

Their work indicated there wererelationships between the studied constructs – specifically, that reported feelings of stress,anxiety, and depression statistically decreased with increasing reports of inclusion [14].For this research we replicated the work of Jensen and Cross by deploying the same instrumentthey used in our project-based context. Using this instrument, we collected quantitative dataon: • Mental health: self-reported stress, anxiety, and depression • Professional identity: engineering identity and engineering career • Inclusion: department caring

Theycollected data from student populations at three large U. S. public universities. They hypothesizedthat levels of stress, anxiety, and depression would vary by social identities and that levels ofinclusion and engineering identity would vary by social identities and across socialidentities.To gather data Jensen and Cross relied upon a validated, quantitative survey that had oneopen-ended item. Their findings indicated that perceptions of inclusion and engineering identityare directly related to student mental health – measures of inclusion such as ”Department

The growth of computation and simulations began in the 1950’s and 60’s in technicalsectors of natural science research like physics and chemistry intending to perform large-scalepredictive computations [13]–[15]. Beyond the natural sciences, computational techniques movedinto economics to perform large scale calculations and provide large new data storage options[16].Many of these computational techniques are the precursors to how we use ABM today to approachproblems. ABM has, more recently, found success and been proven reliable in simulations fortransmission and event prediction in medicine [11] and immunology [10]. These studies haveproduced

Although the term co-curricular is used inthis definition, there is much greater emphasis on the structure of prerequisite and corequisiterelationships. Still, by examining these roadmaps for how students are expected to progressthrough their discipline’s plan of study, we can understand how different curricular

To me, GPT seemed to fabricate the stated connection between Omar’s experience in [Engineering Course ST] and his engineering identity (I don’t think Omar indicated that this experience made him feel more – or less – like an engineer). … As another example of where I think GPT may be giving an interpretation that the data does not support, it said, “Omar's teamwork experience in [Engineering Course ST] made him feel more like an engineer.” I don’t see Omar actually saying this.
