2023-2024 accreditation cycle[1]. ASEE has created the Diversity Recognition Program (ADRP) which recognizesengineering schools implementing DEI initiatives [2]. Hofstra’s Engineering school underwentreaccreditation for six programs in the 2023-2024 cycle and participated in the pilot of the DEIcomponents of Criteria 5 and 6. In addition, the university was accorded renewal of Bronzestatus under the ASEE ADRP. The present paper discusses the plans and assessments utilized toreach these goals.The need to address DEI in the region where the university resides is critical in the attraction andretention of students to engineering. The region is a diverse metropolitan area in which thestudent body reflects the diversity. In addition, the

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

elementaryschools to understand the conceptualization of STEAM education. This case recognizes thatSTEAM instruction is subjective, suggesting that the implementation of STEAM does not haveto be uniform but can (and should) be individualized to reflect the specific classroom ofinstruction [24]. A similar finding was identified in STEAM-focused schools with a highrepresentation of minority students [25]. Specifically, the authors describe the necessity forSTEAM curriculum to center “the cultural lives of minoritized students,” referencing a methodtermed Black Futurity STEAM [25]. As research on STEAM-certified schools is limited, futurestudies should explore new developments in the space, providing additional context on theimpact STEAM certification has on

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

Additionally, it allowsinstructors to address higher levels of Bloom’s taxonomy, testing application and understandingof content instead of just memory. One

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

Instructors alsoreported more time teaching and responses that suggest a decrease in work-life satisfaction.

A random selection of alumni who had notbeen invited to participate in the most recent prior alumni study were invited to respond to thesurvey. The resulting pool of 2,336 respondents reflect a convenience sample from which weenrolled all 210 alumni who had participated in the first year experience, due to this being themost limited high-impact practice in this study’s setting.

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

] synthesized a set of characteristics and teaching/learningpractices from the literature. First, constructivism assumes that we all have unique perspectives;thus, there are multiple perspectives and representations of different concepts or learning topics.Further, activities should encourage individuals to participate in learning processes of self-analysis and self-reflection. One of the best ways to facilitate this process is to foster learningenvironments that emphasize the “real world” through relevant and authentic practices. Littleton[35] highlights the relevance of Murphy’s principles within museum settings as an ideal place tofoster constructivist learning.Stemming from constructivist theory, active learning is a pedagogical approach that

The clustering of majors in departments can be extendedto programs jointly offered by multiple departments. A degree jointly offered by twodepartments would be similar to other majors offered by the two sponsoring departments, even ifthe majors from the sponsoring departments differed from each other. For example, GeorgiaTech’s degree in Computational Media is jointly offered by the College of Computing and theSchool of Literature, Media, and Communication.

Emily reflected on this, stating, “So if you were to describeyourself as an interdisciplinary scholar, then you would be comfortable working with otherdisciplines”.

It focused on PBL, aneducational approach that fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration throughcomplex and challenging projects that reflect the ambiguity of real-life scenarios.

For the project-based assignments in the course, we usethe RRBot model, which stands for “Revolute-Revolute Manipulator Robot”. The RRBot model iscommonly used as a starting point for more complex robot models, as it provides a relatively simplebut realistic example of a robot with joint
