Another study interviewed OB/Gyn medicalstudents and residents to assess their interest in participating in a global health program foradditional training in low- and middle-income countries; some common barriers by surveyparticipants were cited including scheduling conflicts and time constraints, concerns about costsand funding, a lack of contact with mentors or other contact points for the

Post-orientation, teachers continued to polish and learn new specializedfoundational concepts progressively within their hosting research groups as needed. They alsoparticipated in optional additional training on more advanced topics that were decided upon bythe teachers, on demand. This included Deep Learning.The faculty member heading up each research project served as the teacher’s formal supervisor,and along with designated graduate student mentors, they

Indigenous knowledge fills the ethical and knowledge gaps in Eurocentric education, research, and scholarship (p. 5).This excerpt from Battiste provides a better understanding of how Indigenous knowledge is notonly complementary to the Western conceptualization of science, but it is also a way of life.Indigenous knowledge does not separate the individual from the history, culture, andsurroundings (e.g., the context). Western science and knowledge, on the other side, try toseparate the object (science) from the subject (the scientist). Thus, Western science rhetoric hascreated a false perception of objectivity and neutrality while perpetuating the idea that science,and

work ethic and team commitment played a stronger role in overallsuccess. Moreover, several studies [7, 10, 11] found students in teams with a performance goalorientation (cf. learning goal orientation [12]) tended to divide tasks along gender-correlatedlines in ways that undermine individuals’ learning goals and reinforce minority status. In sum,students’ self-perceptions, their mental models of success in engineering, and how theyformulate their identities are critical to their persistence and success in engineering [13, 14].Women and under-represented minorities (URM, def. non-white, non-Asian) are often therecipients of subtle messages of non-belonging, thus creating an inhospitable environment whichinhibits the formation of professional

Small numbers ofstudents can be viewed as “anomalies” not representative of the whole and dismissed.Additionally, statistical power to detect differences or understand students at multiple intersectionsis impossible to obtain in smaller datasets. Finally, these small numbers of students can bedisaggregated from the larger dataset in ways that re-identify participants and make their responsesnon-anonymous, which have ethical implications [8].Qualitative research often focuses on rich and thick descriptions of students’ individualexperiences that can be used as powerful examples [8].

We also need to understand the extent towhich negative associations with reflection may result from unintended consequences ofreflection activities in higher education. Knowing more about students’ perspectives onreflection can help us be effective educators and also more responsible, ethical educators.In this work we sought to understand undergraduate students’ perspectives on reflection,specifically the types of engagements they have had with reflection. In our analysis we identifymeanings in motion, varied practices, felt engagements and a school-life divide as important forunderstanding students’ perspectives.Related workReflection can be understood as a form of thinking

One of the definingcharacteristics of design is that there is rarely a single correct answer to an engineering problembut, rather, an optimal or acceptable solution leading to a final design, presented as the bestpossible balance between technical as well as non-technical constraints. These non-technicalconstraints, typically involve: economics, politics, social and environmental issues, ethics, etc.And, while professional practitioners generally accept this understanding of design, students, byenlarge, tend to interpret the engineering design process as an unambiguous and clearly definedprocess supported by rigidly applied principles and processes of “the scientific method.”Students’ vision

Professional identity development (PID) in students is adynamic process as a novice student compares new inputs from training and professionalassociations with previous views; and upon, various levels of internalizations, the professionalidentity may be accepted or rejected [7][8]). PID in students involve students’ beliefs of theirown performance / competence, interests in the profession, and feelings of recognition bysignificant others. It is the
