The United NationsHuman Refugee Agency estimates that over 1 million Iraqis are living in protracted situations andover 2 million remain internally displaced [2]. Yet, the nation has been on a steady path towardreclamation, reformation, and rebuilding of its historical, cultural, and social infrastructure [3].Education has an important role to play in supporting a country’s economic recovery after yearsof conflict and instability[4], a fact that is not lost to citizens of the republic [5]. Particularly, highereducation has a critical role in providing career development opportunities that translate intosuccessful integration in community development in both stable and

We did not ask respondents to describe where in the application package they wouldexpect to see information to inform their evaluation of these constructs; however, we expect theywould be evident to varying degrees in many common application documents, most notably theteaching statement and cover letter, and perhaps, in the curriculum vitae with evidence ofprofessional development in the area of inclusive teaching and/or awards received (e.g., teachingassistants who receive teaching awards).Quantitative data cleaning and statistical analysis were carried out using Jamovi (2021), an open-source

-progress paper, we describe our efforts to implement a coach and peer-to-peer mentoringmodel to provide structured faculty development in entrepreneurial mindset (EM) integration throughmakerspaces.As faculty members try to innovate and update their classes, a recent merger of the Maker movement andthe Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) movement has provided specific training and opportunities to revitalizethe engineering curriculum. Studies have suggested facilitating EM projects with the makerspace areexcellent opportunities to develop student skills in areas related to entrepreneurial mindset such asopportunity recognition, learning from failure, stakeholder engagement, and value creation [1, 2]. Whilemakerspaces are a proven conduit for EM, they are

During the lightning talk, we will share a comprehensive overview ofthe study's research findings as well as the importance of student-centered teaching practices inengineering education.Background and MotivationThe contemporary education of engineers remains a challenging domain, and a key area needingmore focus on identifying effective teaching practices, particularly in middle and upper-levelengineering classes. This lessons-learned paper, which emerged from an NSF-funded project(masked for review), explores

convictions regardingSTEM are more inclined to implement a variety of assessment methods, coupled withconstructive evaluation principles, to bolster student learning outcomes. Furthermore,the study reveals that the STEM literacy of rural teachers serves as an intermediarybetween their teaching beliefs and evaluation approaches. In addition, the academiccourse subject instructed by these educators acts as a moderator in the relationship,underscoring the integration of humanities with STEM disciplines to achieve abalanced and comprehensive education. Highlighting the urgency of refiningassessment practices and enhancing STEM literacy among rural educators, this studycalls for future scholarly inquiries into the incorporation of liberal arts with

While some may see the explicit inclusion of DEI as a radical revision of ABETcriteria, a historical perspective shows that the proposed new requirements are an incrementalreform stemming from a steady evolution of ABET’s integrating professional

This class consisted of 12 Latinx students. The primary goal was to incorporatescientific inquiry within the Latinx community. As part of the curriculum enhancement, TinyEarth, a program that inspires students to engage in scientific research, was introduced to addressanti-fungal resistance in crops. Each student experimented, and based on their findings, theywere offered an opportunity to join the science lab. To foster a sense of identity within the lab,Latinx students were informed about the significance of specific native

These narratives encompass their experiences, challenges, and successes in navigating U.S. academia as an international faculty. This process includes documenting instances of cultural adjustment, professional development and encounters with institutional barriers [16]. We presented each narrative based on themes like transitional experiences, our experiences as graduate students, then transitioning into our first professional roles (postdoc, junior faculty etc), and then finally moving towards post- tenure experiences. b.
