implementation of UDL focuses on integrating the three principles across four criticalinstructional elements: Clear Goals, Intentional Planning for Learner Variability, FlexibleMethods and Materials, and Timely Progress Monitoring [5]. These critical elements areimplemented using an instructional design model that includes five steps: (1) Establish ClearOutcomes, (2) Anticipate Learner Variability, (3) Establish Clear Assessment and MeasurementPlans, (4) Design the Instructional Experience, and (5) Reflect and Develop NewUnderstandings. UDL makes use of a variety of technology-enhanced, evidence-based, strategiesand instructional resources to enhance instruction for all students.Preliminary Outcomes of RET and Train the Trainer Model of SupportsEarly

situated. Forexample, researchers of DLI in history have found that historians engage in literacy practicessuch as contextualizing, sourcing, and corroborating [11], [12] when reading and evaluatingprimary source documents. We conceptualize engineering literacy practices in layers, where thediscipline-specific practices (e.g. genres) are on the bottom layer while the more generalengineering literacy practices (e.g. situated social activities) are on the top layer. Figure 1demonstrates this vision of layered literacy practices. We envision that engineers working in aspecific sub-discipline of engineering work with textual genres that closely reflect the work donein their discipline. These genres then inform the frameworks they use to analyze and

Or a teacher may provide different kinds of verbalsupport for students to engage with certain engineering practices based on their perceptions ofstudents’ abilities to engage in engineering practices in different classroom contexts (Lilly et al.,2020). Teachers’ beliefs can then affect the effectiveness of teachers’ implementation ofinterdisciplinary curricula and the opportunities that students have to engage in certaininterdisciplinary practices (Askew et al., 1997). In classroom practice, teachers draw upon their own privately-held PCK&S to make bothplanned and in-the-moment instructional moves. PCK&S is a kind of reflection in action (Schön,1983) where teachers monitor student

them the upper hand with industry recruiters.Competitions sanctioned by SAE International (formerly the Society of Automotive Engineers)generally occur at the end of the school year (May/June), thereby making the summer months acritical time for student teams to reflect on their previous designs and to start proposinginnovations for the subsequent season. The Formula SAE (FSAE) team at The Cooper Union inNew York City has used this time to immerse high school students in this real-world activity intheir college’s summer STEM program.This 6-week intensive summer program is separated into two main modules. The first modulefocuses on teaching students the fundamentals of engineering experimentation that culminate inoral presentations detailing

‘COSMOSEducational Toolkit’.Initially, several teachers stated that the lecture and lab phase (weeks 1-2) of the program couldhave been shorter, rather than full-day activities because there was a lot of material to absorb. Inaddition, teachers also noted that they especially enjoyed the lecture topics that coincided directlywith lab experiments, as this gave them a sense of how-to best design lessons for their own studentsby being able to actively take on a learner’s perspective. These comments were made immediatelyafter the first 2-weeks of the PD program. At the end of the PD program teachers reflected andstated that the rigorous lecture and lab phase supported their conceptualization of wirelesscommunications in order to best create lessons in the

PBL engages students in realinquiry [23] that begins with the students posing question, generating hypothesis, seekingresources to find answers, framing new questions, exploring and testing ideas, and formulatingconclusions [24]. Formalizing a process for feedback and revision [24] during a project makeslearning meaningful since it emphasizes that creating high-quality products [23] and performancesis an important purpose of the endeavor. Students answer questions and reflect on how to completethe project, next steps they need to take, and what they gain in terms of knowledge, skills, andpride. The role of a teacher is vital for the implementation of PBL in classroom environment. AsFigure 5(a

The sections, illustrated in Figure 2, reflected the various stages of the designprocess, as well as administrative/project management components of engineering design. Inaddition to assigning each section a point value, instructors can choose from a number of generalcomments or input custom comments. This wide range of scores allows instructors to track studentprogress in each section throughout the 3-course sequence, addressing the criteria of applicabilityacross a wide range of students. By widening the scale and broadening expectations as studentsprogress from course to course, many stages of development can be accounted for [10]. Hence, toreflect increasing expectations

, active/reflective, and sequential/global.Complementary teaching styles can be matched to each of the learning styles, and the traditional“chalk and talk” style can in no way encompass all of them. Several institutions found that amixed-mode approach which balances active learning and passive learning is best for teachingstudents, especially in early stages of development [4]. Thus, in order to teach STEM topics toall students, supplementary teaching tools should be utilized.There are some assignable causes linked to the lack of engagement and success in STEMclassrooms. Many times teachers themselves do not have adequate training to teach STEMtopics. This problem was illustrated in a study done in 2007 that revealed the United Statesranked 41 out
