We purposefully selected twofoundational second-year year EM courses (i.e., Engineering Statics and Ordinary DifferentialEquations) as the context for this study in order to deepen the knowledge base in this less studiedyear of undergraduate engineering education.2.2.Research QuestionsTwo research questions were constructed to guide this study: (1) How are undergraduate studentself-regulation of cognition (SRC

In addition to non-technical skills, like project
students, who were not able to continue their graduate studiesand quit their education, would add different perspectives and enrich the findings of this study.Future workDifferent research advisors are at different levels in their academic career paths. Graduateadvisors’ academic status and their years of experience in advising students will have an impacton their relations with their international students. Exploring the advisors’ varied academicstatus and their international students’ lived experiences in the newly joined research labs willprovide additional findings. A future work will involve different advisors and their internationalgraduate students’ lived experiences. References[1] C. A. George

points to a need for immediate change with respect to inclusion and equity in eachof our course, program, and institution. We expect that if students perceive that they are betterequipped and able to solve engineering problems that would inspire an enhanced sense ofengineering identity. This introductory design course is taken by students during early in theirundergraduate career and is their first exposure to engineering in the program. Given the timepoint at which this course is taken, it is possible that students only see themselves as engineers toa small degree or that as they learn more about engineering there could be a misalignmentbetween their prior conceptions of engineering and their newly acquired knowledge of the fieldthat could

Helping students effectively manage conflict and establish inclusiveteam environments are important skills that are essential for their ability to work on teams intheir future careers. However, the literature suggests that many engineering instructors havelimited training and confidence to facilitate learning experiences that help students developteamwork and conflict management skills [4], [5]. One way to help students develop and practiceconflict management skills in the classroom is through scenario-based learning. Conflictscenarios have been used in prior

, and we suspect that it generalizes to similarsituations of high volume grading.Influence on Student LearningThis type of grading, with an emphasis on two points, may have an effect on student learning. Inall the 20 used for the college algebra graders’ interviews, 6 of them did not have any pointsplotted, 5 of them had points plotted on both left and right sides, none of them had points plottedonly on the left side, and 9 of them had points plotted only on the right side. We can see thestudents had a tendency to only plot points on the right side of the graph. Although we cannotsay for certain that feedback from graders over the student's career may play a large role in this,there does appear to be a culture among both graders and students of
