students' experience with the activities.4.5. Overall Insights of AWPThe benefits respondents listed from participating in the AWP focused on having a betterunderstanding of POGIL and more confidence in their ability to write and implement POGILin their classroom. They also appreciated getting feedback on their work and collaborating withothers in the same discipline. Specific comments included: I feel like I have a MUCH better understanding of what POGIL activities should look like and how to go about writing them. It was also great to have one fully completed POGIL activity and one that`s almost ready to be submitted. Collaborating with colleagues that are interested in the same discipline, and at times in the same
institution.Faculty participating in our study were asked to develop projects and course integrations that aim todevelop some aspect(s) of students EM. The final deliverable, at the conclusion of the 2-year period, isthe submission of an Engineering Unleashed Card [8]. These cards function as a combination of blog andresource-sharing website all in one page, documenting the course plans/activities with sufficient detailthat other faculty could then take the plan/activity and modify it to fit and deploy it in their own courses.Research on mentoring models for faculty developmentThere has been a growing body of research on the effectiveness of peer mentoring programs rooted insocial cognitive theories and research on influence [9].

The future inclusion of empiricaldata from observations and artifacts will give us a broader perspective to approach these questionsand arrive at conclusions on the long-term impact of our faculty development program.References[1] R.

In somecases, steps three and four are skipped, and only one round of interviews is completed. The faculty hiring process is fraught with bias, including racial bias [1], gender bias inletters of recommendation [2], and search committee members seeking to hire people whoseresearch areas are most similar to their own [3]. Hiring people similar to oneself extends beyondresearch areas. Many search committees look for candidates who would be a good “fit”(generally, scientifically, programmatically) [4, 5]. However, “fit” is highly subjective and opento the evaluator’s personal biases

Leveraging Faculty Externship to Develop New Concentrations and Specializations in Construction Management CurriculaAbstractThis "Work in Progress" paper provides insight into a viable strategy for enhancing ConstructionManagement (CM) curricula through the integration of concentration(s) and specialization(s)within program degree paths via formalized engagement of a faculty member industry residency.Ultimately, a faculty member's industry residency aims to gain familiarity and hands-onexperience utilizing cutting-edge industry trends and best practices. It requires embedding a full-time faculty member within an industry environment during a typical summer academicsemester, reducing available faculty resources for the related degree
circumstances, such as poor acoustics, room size, temperature, or aglaring blackboard, that could interfere with teaching and learning, are noted. The classobservation is completed before the end of the tenth week of the semester.Post Observation: This meeting is essential to share the observation outcomes. A post-observation form with guiding questions ensures that peer-observers follow a standardizedprocess. Faculty members also ask their own questions to the peer-observer(s). The discussioninvolves sharing notes and comments with the instructor, highlighting the positive aspects of theinstructions, and providing suggestions to further improve the quality of teaching. Either thecommittee member or the instructor may bring up any issue that needs

choices and functionalities of all the available options.Having a one-on-one consultation appointment, in which a CTL advisor walks through ashortened list of alternatives could make the process more palatable to faculty.Considering participant P46’s experiences, another proposed avenue for combatting resource-related barriers to EBIP implementation is training at a graduate level. It is not uncommon inPhD or Master’s programs for students to take on graduate teaching assistant positions. Thisexperience is often considered as preparation for holding an academic position in highereducation. Therefore, it is reasonable at this stage for graduate students to be exposed to EBIPsthrough some form of training. This type of coaching may prepare
