. Thisincluded the time spent preparing interactive activities. Although these quizzes could be reused infuture semesters, it still requires instructors to continuously update the quizzes to ensure that thequizzes align with each lecture.Another concern is that extra time is needed to implement gamified activities during classes.Gamification activities require pausing for quizzes and reviewing answers. In addition, managingstudent participation and ensuring smooth transitions between activities can add more time. Thiscould reduce the time available for other instructional activities. If the course has tight schedules,this challenge can require adjustments in lesson planning to accommodate gamifiedelements.Despite these challenges, all instructors who

effective problem-solving. This highlights the importance of design education in helpingstudents refine their planning and problem-solving skills. By incorporating mind mappinginto architectural education, students can improve their ability to recognize key elements ofa problem, generate solutions, and communicate their ideas more effectively. The process ofvisualizing solutions through mind maps not only supports cognitive development but alsoenhances the overall design process. Mind maps are a valuable tool in architecture education,enhancing learning by helping students organize complex ideas, link theory to practice, andintegrate creative and technical skills. They bridge the gap between studio and lecture-basedcourses, promoting a more

plan to expand the analysis with how caste blindness manifests acrosscaste-oppressed individuals who must navigate these dominant frameworks. We also aim torefine our analytical approach, exploring how to study caste-blindness not only through directstatements but also through silences, omissions, and implicit assumptions that shape how caste isdiscussed or avoided. 7. ConclusionIn this study, we used critical discourse analysis to explore how caste blindness operates in U.S.engineering and computing education. Our findings show that denying or ignoring caste andpromoting a supposedly neutral meritocracy might inadvertently uphold existing systems ofprivilege. By extending Bonilla-Silva’s color-blindness framework to include caste, we

The survey was launchedat U.S. East on October 24, which the team believes affected response rates at the sites as well (~5%). Thelaunch of the survey at U.S. Midwest was re-scheduled to the beginning of the Spring 2023 semester, andwas launched on January 23, 2023 with more satisfactory response rates (>10%). For Year 2 of our datacollection, we plan to maintain the different timing for data collection between institutions, but we willensure that for both data collection periods (Fall 2023 for U.S. East, and Spring 2024 for U.S. Midwest) weoffer the survey as early in the semester as possible to maximize response rates

Contextualizing problems was important for thinking about thebroader impact of designs on others and for finding more inclusive solutions [65, 66]. Oneparticularly creative approach to developing such skills, and thinking about the needs of others,was curricula established around “alien-centered design” [67].

strategies for implementing an equity mindset. One examplestrategy is for examiners to recognize that implicit bias is most active when we are rushing, andthus, should take a moment before each exam to consider their own mindset, as well challengeany assumptions they might be making during the exam (e.g. assuming that a student isstruggling to answer a question because they did not study). Each module in the asynchronoustraining concludes with self-assessment questions, which IAs were required to complete. Thedepth of the responses to the questions suggests that IAs developed foundational knowledge ofhow implicit biases may show up in oral exams, and that they were able to apply what theylearned by giving specific examples of how they planned to

No new material would be covered on these days, and the only plan was to reviewmaterial and answer questions relevant to the four “last chance” quizzes. This gave students thechance to catch up and successfully addressed their “pacing” concerns from the first semester.Specs grading courses (see references) take different positions on the number of re-takes astudent is allowed. Some instructors allow unlimited re-takes, while others allow only one. Inmy first semester I allowed four, with the fourth coming at the student’s convenience or no laterthan the final exam period.
