Waisome Department of Engineering Education, University of Florida School of Human development and Organizational Studies in Education, University of FloridaPurpose: Self-awareness is an umbrella term that encompasses concepts including self-reflection, introspection, insight, self-regulation, and self-efficacy, among others. These termsare independent of each other but work together to contribute to the overall self-awareness of anindividual. For a graduate student researcher, their self-awareness level can influence how theyengage with their discipline and research

. Thisfull paper explores the impact of self-paced and online Portable intercultural modules (PIMs) onthe intercultural learning goals of the students enrolled in a junior-level system thinking course.The PIM used in the class aims to improve learners’ teamwork and communication skills. ThePIM contains five activities, including watching videos about cultural diversity and empathy,survey, quizzes, and exercise that applies learning towards intercultural collaboration. The studentsin the system thinking course were asked to complete the PIM and a reflection assignment. Theresearch questions that we intend to answer for this study are: RQ1: What domains of interculturalcompetence, as defined by the AAC&U IKC Value rubric, are represented through

However, little is known about howstudents' reflections, motivation and self-directed learning are related within engineering context.In this study, data from the students' responses to surveys were analyzed to determine theassociation among the variables of interest. The calculated Pearson correlation coefficient fromthe data shows that self-assessment components of self-reflection, positive perception of self-assessment, and intrinsic motivation have strong significant correlations. Both motivationvariables of task value and control belief have a medium to high correlation with the self-assessment

The framework also draws from Nicol and Macfarlane-Dick's [20] principles of good feedback practice, emphasizing the role of peer and self-assessment in feedback processes. In the context of Scrum, this dimension reflects the framework's collaborative nature, where feedback sources are not limited to the traditional instructor-student dynamic but include peers and self-reflection [22]. 2. Feedback Timing: Timeliness in feedback is highlighted by Hattie and Timperley's [19] model of effective feedback, which emphasizes the importance of immediate feedback in learning processes. This aspect is mirrored in the Scrum methodology, where regular sprint reviews and retrospectives [23] provide

As such, storytelling has been recognized as a tool forenabling learning as well as a tool for sharing experiences within a community of practice [1]. Inour work we extend this by partnering with undergraduates to share their stories more broadly.Storytelling enables the storyteller to adjust the narrative according to the situation, putting themin charge of what they want to say and how they want to say it.Beyond the professional community and body of knowledge in engineering education, students'experiences, and their reflections on their experiences can potentially transform

We conclude with a discussion of implications for instructional practice.IntroductionVariability—the phenomenon of non-identical values—is core to modern science. The movebeyond calculating averages to the study of real variation is one of the most important scientificdevelopments of the 19th century [1]. Ernst Mayr [2] positions variability as fundamental tounderstanding evolution through “population thinking.” Statistics as a discipline exists in largepart to develop techniques to study variability

Studentswho self-assess are better able to identify areas they need to improve upon, and to determine themost appropriate courses of action to achieve academic success. However, little is known aboutthe congruence in students’ perception of self-assessment and instructor's intent in requiring self-assessments.

By expandingthe capacity to study engineering practice through students serving as participant observers, wepropose that academia can learn more about the engineering workplace while students gain atruer understanding of engineering work. At the same time, reflectively engaging with practicemay help students develop new professional competencies, while potentially also identifyingmisalignments between their own identities and goals, on one hand, and current educational andworkplace realities, on the other.
