, the instructor decided to pilot peer oral exams in the nextoffering of the course (Spring Quarter 2021).Several differences ought to be noted between peer review, as conventionally implemented, andpeer oral exams to further emphasize the motivation for the latter. Firstly, in peer review,students in reviewer roles typically evaluate or write a critique of the work of their peers beforemeeting with them, whereas during the meeting, they go through the work with them, givingtheir critique or explaining their evaluation and offer pointers for improvement [78], [19], [77].In peer oral exams, on the other hand, the objective of the peer examiner is to dynamically probethe peer examinee’s knowledge and understanding, or, technically speaking, to

Osborn and Nag claim that this approach aligns better with both Maslow's Hierarchy ofNeeds as well as Bloom's Taxonomy of Thinking, and though limited in their exploration ofthese approaches, they have seen promising preliminary successes.When specifically discussing first-year engineering courses, it is important to consider factorsbeyond teaching and learning styles, such as the ability of students to build relationships withtheir peers.

Our team received an NSF grant in the Fall of 2018 tobroaden participation in engineering by recruiting and retaining students who have beenhistorically marginalized in engineering. We focused our research on first-year students whoparticipated in pathway programs which provided peer and formal mentoring, success coaching,shared classes, and social activities, that would provide a sense of community and sharedengineering identity for participants

At a large private university, undergraduate teachingassistants play a key role in first-year student success and the mentorship of their cornerstonedesign project. As the first points of reference for students, they assist with content delivery,guide students through hands-on labs and projects, and deliver regular feedback on assignments.Effective teaching assistants are leaders, thus their training as educators is essential to our first-year students’ success.

It keeps them motivated during the early period of their undergraduate programsbecause they see immediate relevance to that which they are working on.

Referencing Gagne’s design guidance [11], it iscritical to get their attention with an engaging opening and then pair that with a connection totheir past learning.Engineering students are often directed to the major because they are proficient in math andscience, yet they may or may not also possess impactful professional skills (writing, speaking,audio/visual production) that are not typically applied in engineering course work.

Prior to forming groups and as part of the Handbook, students are asked to reflect ontheir identities, strengths, communication and conflict styles. As part of this, they complete aseries of self-assessments [12] and generate an asset map where they give thought to how theirlife experiences, not only educational experiences, will benefit a team. For an example of whatan asset map looks like, see examples in [4], [13]. Further, students read several articleshighlighting diversity and engineering and write a short

Nevertheless, this study argues that studentsconsider writing skills and collaborative work less important for their career development.Regarding those mentioned above, it has been widely documented that university studentsrequire a broad set of skills to be successful in their careers.

teaching is primarily in team-based engineering courses, and her research fo- cuses on equity in communication and collaboration as well as in group design decision making (judg- ment) under uncertainty. She is especially interested in how power relationships and rhetorical strate- gies affect group judgment in engineering design; one goal of this work is to to understand factors that inhibit full participation of students who identify with historically marginalized groups and investigate evidence-based strategies for mitigating these inequities. In addition, she is interested in technology and how specific affordances can change the ways we collaborate, learn, read, and write. Teaching engineer- ing communication
