Thesurveys, designed and conducted by the students, aimed to explore how their peers respond topackaging, conduct research before purchasing, and are influenced by advertising and socialmedia. The students found that 27.3% of their peers often pay attention to packaging, 36.4%sometimes do, and 36.4% never do.

Furthermore, social integration experiences,such as participation in co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, residence programs,spending time with peers [19] as well as socio-academic experiences, such as working onprojects with peers, discussing grades and career plans with instructors, and being part oflearning communities [12] contributed to a greater sense of belonging.In summary, both engineering identity and belongness are linked with persistence as well asother positive psychological and emotional outcomes, thus promoting a sense of identity

Whatever the name may be, their purpose isto assist students by providing equations to them on a test, to reduce the burden of memorization.This is often an expected practice, as engineering features many different equations, tables ofdata, and constants that practicing engineers can easily look up, and it allows students

Self-efficacy has been related towomen’s plans to persist in engineering. Women who have higher self-efficacy, especiallyBlack, Latina/x, and Indigenous women, are more likely to persist in engineering careers [23].Conversely, research has demonstrated that women who have lower self-efficacy are more likelyto drop out of

In Plato’sdialogue, Timaeus, Timaeus is asked to provide an account of how the world came to be as it is.Timaeus argues that the emergence of the universe has followed the non-deterministic plan of theArcheteckton (Master Builder) or Demiurge (Public Worker). These expressions both suggest aMaster Craftsman, a Master Engineer. Timaeus demurs on the specific path taken, claiming thathe can only give a probable account. Clearly, there is freedom in the evolutionary path, but, headds, emphatically, that one thing is for certain, that the emergence of the universe always movesto the Good, moves from each current state to a more desirable future state.

The use of a learning management system (LMS) has been shown to mitigatechallenges associated with disruptions, prompting researchers to better understand the degree towhich LMS features are used and how they can be used more effectively. This study wasconducted to discover how instructors utilized a LMS before, during, and after a disruption.Findings from this study can be used by policy makers and educators to plan how best to useLMS features given
