Research indicates that those with ADHD, dyslexia,autism, etc., often possess strengths like visualization, spatial thinking, and hands-on activities[15] - [17]. Guided by Universal Design Learning (UDL) [11], additional teaching strategieswere added to enhance the distinct talents of neurodivergent students. The revised course focuseson three key areas: accessibility, flexibility, and a strength-based approach.In Spring 2023, the Mechanics of Materials course enrolled 130 students and took place in anactive learning classroom. The course was co-taught by two instructors. This section discussesthe course components, policy and class features which supported neuroinclusive

Results from the Senior Growth Survey indicate significant development in senior's growth as professionals [4, 5].5. Industry Connection: The program used various means to connect with the industry, including hiring a resident industry advisor, strengthening faculty’s connection with the industry through summer immersion experiences, and infusing industry practices in IDP and senior design courses [2]-[5].6.

decisions, reflecting a view that engineering designactivities provide a context for students to learn and apply scientific ideas [92], [95], [96].However, of the articles that investigated design-based science lessons, only 17% evaluated thelearning of science. Instead, research articles predominantly measured the impact of developingdesign practices (42%), followed by attitudes towards engineering (19%) and habits of mind(19%). If the goal of design activities is science learning, research is needed to understand theextent to which engineering education can meet this goal, as well as effective integrationstrategies. In addition, increased efforts are needed to overcome teachers' limited pedagogicaland content knowledge of engineering-based

, EA runs directly against most cases for “Engineering as an altruistic STEM career” [1].EA doesn’t pose a higher good of civic involvement or service against the temptation tomaximize elevated personal earnings. Most surprisingly, EA advocates often treat empathy, acentral focus of much current engineering education research, as a mere shortcoming in decision-making, misdirecting altruistic impulses to causes that are emotionally engaging but logicallysubordinate to causes with more proven need or measurable benefit to be discovered by “runningthe numbers.” This paper looks at the prominence of effective altruism among STEMprofessionals, considers its tensions with practices in empathic and socially engaged engineeringeducation, and treats

Criterion 3 Student Outcome 5 [4]). Passow [5]surveyed ~2000 engineering graduates in 11 engineering fields at 2 years, 6 years, and 10 yearsafter graduation and asked them to rank the ABET competencies (a-k in 2012 [6]) in order ofimportance for engineering practice. Practicing engineers ranked teamwork, data analysis,problem solving, and communication skills as the most important competencies in theirprofessional experience. These skills were ranked significantly above the other ABETcompetencies surveyed (math, science, and engineering skills, experimental design, processdesign, ethics, impact, life-long learning, engineering tools, and contemporary issues). Morerecent studies similarly emphasize the importance of teamwork skills [7] as well as a

How best to make use of this technology in the academywill be an important and evolving process that may significantly impact our paradigms on curriculardelivery and student assessment.Notwithstanding real concerns over abuse, the proverbial genie will not return to the bottle. The issuefor students who will practice engineering leadership is how to apply it effectively and in a way thatdoes not promote abuse. Similarly, the issue for faculty is how to welcome this technology in teachingwhile upholding high ethical standards.Leadership is fundamentally an intervention
