obstacles is the existence of unconscious and conscious biases in faculty searchprocedures, which put candidates from minoritized identities at a disadvantage (Roper, 2019;Sackett et al., 1991; Steinpreis et al., 1999; Wapman et al., 2022; Wenneras & Wold, 1997; Wu etal., 2023). Such biases may also exist when considering prospective faculty members’qualifications as to their day-to-day responsibilities – teaching, research, and service – which, inmost institutions, involves engaging with people from a wide range of identities in the classroom,in laboratories, and beyond. Thus, DEI-related qualifications such as the ability to employinclusive teaching practices is an important measure of merit for faculty members.Purpose and Research QuestionIt

As Alfred noted,“Teaching thermodynamics is about understanding core principles; AI doesn’t change that.”Others in the Sciences fields have stated that with technological progression, AI image analysingsoftware and tools have been integrated for practical laboratory sessions, providing students witha better visualisation of their analysis. As Edward remarked, “For practical lab sessions, AI helpsstudents visualize their analysis better,” illustrating AI’s role in enhancing experimental learningexperiences.

merits and rigor ofactive learning over passive learning as well as providing faculty with ongoing pedagogicaltraining will be necessary to realize the advantages of active learning in higher education.Experiment-centric pedagogy is an innovative active learning pedagogy that has transformedlearning and teaching experience in the classroom and laboratory. As described by Authors [10],experiment-centric pedagogy places students at the center of the learning process. Experiment-centric pedagogy (ECP) focuses on inexpensive and safe hands-on tools and activities to promotelearning in STEM subjects. As presented by Connor et al.

In this situation, while it is true that some educators conduct exemplaryexpository classes, delivering content with both depth and eloquence, engaging studentseffectively and promoting comprehension of the subject matter. There are also instances in whichthese classes integrate active strategies to invigorate the learning experience. In turn, active learning strategies play a pivotal role by positioning students as activeparticipants in the learning process.

In the current study, the process ofimplementing effective mentorship is broken down into planning and execution phases. During UR mentoring, faculty mentors are involved in a broad range of activities, as notedby Brace et al. [18]. These include setting project expectations and timelines, introducing studentsto laboratory settings, discussing career opportunities, managing resources, teaching scientificresearch methods, holding weekly progress meetings, guiding students to prepare
