The central question driving this research is: How does instructors'pedagogical knowledge influence their pedagogical practices for first-year engineering courses?For this study, we chose the model of teacher professional knowledge and skill (TPK&S), whichincludes pedagogical content knowledge (PCK). A descriptive case study was utilized as amethodology for this work to delve into the phenomenon. The context of the study was a first-year introductory engineering course offered at a large public research institution.

The iAM Program is intended toovercome those barriers.The major goals of the project to be accomplished over six years are to: 1. Increase academic success, graduation, and career entry of STEM students broadly and local high school students in particular 2. Strengthen curricular pathways between CC and 4-year institutions 3. Evaluate adaptability, transferability, and institutionalization of the Program modelTo achieve these goals, we created a pathway for students from four local high schools, throughNCC and HU, culminating in a STEM BA/BS degree.

fields [4], [5], [6].In recent years, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have been gainingpopularity as a way to engage undergraduate students in authentic scientific inquiry on a largescale [7]. While CUREs have many similarities to traditional laboratory courses or courseresearch projects, the work students do as part of a CURE is framed in a fundamentally differentway. Research projects within CUREs ideally have direct and indirect impact on the broaderscientific community and offer students the opportunity to share study findings with externalstakeholders [8]. Consequently, CUREs represent an overlap between the triumvirate of studentlearning, stakeholder impact, and promotion of a faculty’s research program.In this work
