I hope all is going well there and I definitely intent on keeping in touch.” The student’s message shows that the students find the projects to be extremely beneficialin pursuing a job. It gives them confidence. Since the class projects have been such a success,and since these projects are the best artifacts to present students’ expertise and capabilities, it isnatural to consider them as first choice for an ePortfolio showcase. This is where the idea started,to provide students with a tool to better market themselves in front of potential employers,providing a way to display their projects and industrial expertise.

According to the same report, the number of peopleconnected to isolated mini electrical grids (called microgrids) doubled between 2010 and 2019, goingfrom 5 to 11 million people.

students navigated their first yearon campus during different stages of the pandemic. We use a sociological lens in order toinvestigate how history and biography intersect for first-year engineering students navigatingtheir transition to college from 2019-2022 [35]. We share quantitative data at the college level tocompare outcomes related to retention and GPA among the three cohorts and assess differencesfor students involved in these programs compared to students who did not have the samesupports. We find evidence to support that despite adaptations student success programsdelivered online/remotely were able to build social capital among participants in ways that mayhave helped to buffer some of the social isolation and negative mental health
Transfer course. In this study, 28 seniorundergraduate engineering students were presented with a quantitative problem related to thelength of a pipe in a water heater and given context for the problem that created additional designconsiderations. Students wrote memos to present their final solutions and describe additionalconsiderations for solar water heating. Classroom observations and student memos demonstratedthat students were able to consider contexts to their heat transfer content that went beyondtraditional, technical considerations; however, most of the considerations that studentsbrainstormed were environmental, rather than economic or social [30].Similarly, in 2019, Lord et al.
