formatted as GoogleColaboratory notebooks that are publicly available on GitHub (Python training for instructors;Biology modules; Statistics modules). APEX biology modules include case studies on sickle cellanemia and breast cancer and three shorter data analysis modules. Eighteen APEX statisticsmodules span topics ranging from data and measurement to sampling and hypothesis testing. Aswe refine and expand our materials, we are also assessing the program’s efficacy by surveyingboth instructors and students. The aim of this work-in-progress paper is to conduct a preliminaryexamination of whether and how student perceptions of interdisciplinary computing change as aresult of engaging with APEX biology and statistics modules.MethodsFaculty who planned

The findings and discussions presented here mayoffer insights for educators, policymakers, and AI developers.Methodology and findings The Fundamental Competence Exam (FCE) is a prerequisite to obtain a Bachelor ofEngineering degree and its objective is to assess students' fundamental engineeringcompetences. To give the test students need to first pass a list of courses that are part of acommon access plan that all the engineering undergraduate students take in the first two yearsof studies. This is because these courses are then assessed in the FCE. The subjects that FCE aims to assess range from

(Appendix, Table A3). The Case Study Worksheet asked themto complete tasks such as “Define the problem” and “Determine the criteria for a successfulsolution,” and to answer, “What AI was used in this case study?”. The Independent ResearchWorksheet helped the group identify what they needed to learn about the problem in the casestudy and develop a plan for acquiring that knowledge. The students were assessed in thefollowing ways: pre- and post-test on content knowledge, group presentation, case study report,concept map, and teamwork assessment. The group presentation was a way to test theirknowledge without having them use AI to write a paper. The purpose of the case study reportwas to provide the student a way to summarize the process they used to

This pioneering program is a collaborative effort between the Fulton Schools ofEngineering (FSE) and the College of Health Solutions (CHS), aimed at providing tailoredsupport in the form of peer mentoring, social engagement, and career readiness. Whenengineering students enroll in the EASE program and begin their college education at ASU, theyare paired with two peer mentors, one from FSE and one from CHS. The mentors first focus onthe transition to college by helping their mentees find relevant resources.

Following collective brainstorming, we engaged faculty in acascading agreement multi-voting activity to prioritize which aims they felt were most importantto address as a department [5]. Facilitating this collaborative strategic planning techniqueallowed us to ensure that all faculty had a chance to express their opinions in small groupswithout feeling that any one departmental leader was influencing the activity too heavily.After the cascading agreement activity, we were left with a prioritized list of five aims.

Work in Progress: Development of a Medical Devices Course for Sophomore Biomedical Engineering Undergraduate StudentsIntroductionThe biomedical engineering (BME) workforce requires competency in professional and technicalskills. BMEs often use knowledge in design, administration and management, and customerneeds assessment [1]. Typical work activities of a BME include analyzing data or information,organizing and planning work, determining compliance with standards, building teams, anddrafting and specifying technical device parts [1]. The undergraduate BME capstone designcourse is often used as a “catchall” to develop these critical professional skills; however, to buildcompetency, it is recommended that these skills be practiced

We formed eight designgroups; each group included three students from architecture and three students from civil engineering.These competing design groups brainstormed ideas and submitted eight different schematic designs. Of theeight designs, students, faculty, and industry mentors voted on the best design and floor plan. The studentssubmitted names for the final house design and chose “Roots” by popular vote.

These findings can be utilized todevelop curricular improvements by adding exercises to outline limitations and societal impact tothe senior design classes.As a result of this feedback from industry evaluators, we plan to make improvements to thesenior design curriculum. For example, industry professionals cited that students were not able toclearly explain the limitations of their work. To teach students that it is important to understandand be able to acknowledge the limitations of their work, we plan to ask the students to surveyexternal industry professionals before BE-Day about their project to help them

For instance, students mightbe able to transfer credit, but for elective courses rather than for courses in their desired degreeprogram if the articulation agreement is not developed enough [7,8]. This has negativeconsequences for transfer students as they have to spend more time and financial resources tocomplete their education.In addition, articulation agreements are often difficult to understand and navigate for communitycollege students [9].

While 2019 – 20 AY graduates are the first group ofstudents that did not take the FEDT test that ME and CIVE programs used to offer,there might be many external factors affecting this decrease such as fluctuations inoverall (national) pass rates, motivation, and the like (7, 8). Bringing FEDT back as aLMS module should improve both preparation and motivation of the students; henceimprove the FE results in the upcoming years. Moreover, CIVE and ME programs arealso planning to use FEDT as an assessment tool.

This has proved to be a valid premise. Since thecourse has been offered more cadets have expressed the desire to pursue professionalregistration. It is challenging for cadets that plan to commission in the armed forces at the timeof graduation to realize the importance of preparing for, taking, and passing the FE exam. Manyhave expressed the attitude in the past that they plan to be an officer in the armed service, and donot see the need to pursue professional registration even though many promotions in the militaryrequire a PE license [4].
