engineering concepts such asthermodynamics and mechanics who had cited that their methods of delivery are based onexperience and the general situation of student's receptiveness in learning. 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. Non-STEM instructors were more open to AI’s role in

Engineering Education, 2025Challenges and strategies of STEM instructors in adopting active learning: Insights from aHand-search of International Journal of STEM EducationAbstractThe literature review was conducted to synthesize the challenges and strategies faced bySTEM instructors in adopting active learning, drawing on 42 empirical studies publishedbetween 2014 and 2024 in the International Journal of STEM Education. Active learningrefers to evidence‐based, student‐centered teaching methods that engage learners throughindividual or group activities, yet it remains underutilized in STEM higher education despitewell‐documented benefits. This conference paper presents the preliminary results of thisliterature review project, including the nature of

and assessment practices. This paper aims to systematically review how engineeringfaculty engage with AI tools and practices to support and transform engineering education. Bysynthesizing existing research, we provide insights that can inform educators, curriculumdesigners, and researchers on emerging trends, opportunities, and challenges in AI adoptionwithin the engineering context.While AI has existed for over six decades, recent exponential advancements in its capabilitieshave driven a significant shift in how it is perceived and utilized, especially in academiccontexts. AI is increasingly being integrated into pedagogy, shaping assessment practices andenabling new instructional approaches to enhance teaching and learning in educational

Practices Research into effective mentoring practices reveals that successful mentoring programsshare key components, including structured training for both faculty mentors and students alongwith adequate resources including funding and research space. 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
