A thematic analysis of the qualitative data was used to analyzethe reflective essays.This “work in progress” paper will summarize the main results of the study. Based on theanalysis, we propose interventions to assist these students in their transition from high school tocollege. This project is relevant to institutions seeking to improve the retention of students intheir engineering programs.Background:First generation college students are defined as students whose parents completed only a highschool diploma or equivalent. Some researchers include in this classification those studentswhose parents

The SSEF aims to foster innovative, human-centered, and sustainable urban designsolutions through interdisciplinary international collaboration. The SSEF reflects anunderstanding of the multifaceted nature of urban problems and seeks to bring together diverseperspectives and expertise to address these issues.The program was structured as a multi-week, multi-institutional pilot that brought together nineexceptional third-year

responded to an IRB-approved follow-up survey about their learningexperiences. Reflective student feedback from both multidisciplinary trips indicated thatengineering students deepened their understanding of chosen topics in consideration of global,cultural, and societal factors, and that the non-engineering students enjoyed the visits more thanthey expected and overcame initial fears about engineering-related coursework, discoveringengineering practices in many aspects of their social lives. Overall, the students gave positivefeedback about the multidisciplinary trips and demonstrated achievement of the learningoutcomes. In the future, the authors plan to continue collaborations to further integrate the coursemodules and regularly evaluate the

infiltrates many areas of engineering andscience. Yet within engineering programs, students often have few opportunities to developexpertise in data science or even to explore how data science is relevant to their degreespecializations. This paper reports on an NSF-funded study of a program that prepares STEMstudents to engage with data science in coursework and then mentors them as they secureinternships and complete a capstone that demonstrates their application of data science expertise.Drawing on a mixed-methods study, including student reflections, capstone project assessment,and survey reporting, this paper suggests not only that students make deep connections betweentheir existing majors and data science but also that students trained in our

The National Academy of Sciences has raised theconcern that the current educational model should better align existing engineering models withsuch emerging challenges, broadening the context through an increased number of thematic callsand engaging with a wider range of users. In addition, academic literature on Science,Technology, and Society has called for a move towards a heightened awareness of the contextand factors that influence engineering decision

The diverse nature of UREs leads to arange of skill development and interest among participants, adding complexity to the landscape ofundergraduate research experiences. Thus, the type of UREs could develop a varying degree of skills andinterests.Theoretical Framework In the development of this research, we have applied the theoretical framework of engineeringstudent identity [17] to develop our interview protocol for a large project. In this framework, there arethree key constructs that contribute to one’s identity as an engineering student. The first is engineeringstudent interest, which reflects curiosity and

Table 2 shows the strengths of eachtool. Excel, Google Forms, and Canvas are readily available to the university community. Whilethe spreadsheet-based methods are easy to use, they are tedious for the coordinator to compile.Spreadsheet tools and SearchLight require faculty to submit an outcome score for each student atthe conclusion of the course. While these scores are linked to signature assessment instruments,it is not clear how faculty aggregate performance and determine the scores. Canvas overcomesthis limitation by clearly linking the

the problem that has been proposed to them. In theMDC course, the instructors have the students spend 4 weeks at the beginning of the projectidentifying the problem and root causes before beginning work on possible solutions. Thisprocess was emphasized for students to reflect and modify their problem identification as theygain knowledge progressing through the design process. The instructors reinforced thisrelationship between their performance and knowledge gained through revisions to past writtenreports that were used to build on their project. Retrieval practice helps students to monitor their learning by encouraging them to retrieve priorknowledge [30 – 46]. The MDC instructional team implemented this practice by giving writtenfeedback to

differences could be driven by other factors, such as characteristics ofparticipants in these groups, different environments or context that they face, among other things.Tech companies have for decades favored A/B tests to understand adoption choices bycustomers. They also conduct experiments to determine the most effective approaches formanaging people and maintaining a productive environment. An example is Lazear (2000) whostudied the impact of piece rates on productivity. The study estimated a 44% overallimprovement in productivity due to piece rates by gradually implementing a new compensationscheme. Around 22% of this was due to greater effort (the incentive effect), and the remaining22% reflected sorting (better new hires) or potentially some

The greatest weight inexplaining performance is given by academic self-efficacy, thus the perceived confidence inthe ability to learn, demonstrate, and apply course content should be strengthened. The results lead to reflect that the academic environment should promote activities thatcan strengthen students' self-efficacy so that they can confidently enjoy the course and, thus,succeed in school and professionally. Important limitations of the study are highlighted, the main one being the sample, whichcame from a single institution and was not very diverse in terms of where the students camefrom age and engineering course.

capstone design; this requirement is reflected in Outcomes 11-13. In the multidisciplinarycapstone program at Georgia Tech, professors (as well as sponsors) can propose capstoneprojects. The student teams bid on the proposed projects and the course instructor matches teamsto projects based on their bids. Therefore, since Prof. Weitnauer clearly indicated in herproposals that the capstone projects would require built prototypes that would be used in theNovember exhibit, and she was the primary advisor, the Fall 2022 capstone students were eagerto not only produce a prototype, but do so early, so it could be included in the exhibit. It is notedthat for the next version of the exhibit, which will show in Spring or Fall 2024, Prof. Weitnaueris a
