design project in only one senior design course; two of these programs had earlier courses in the senior design sequence that contained valuable information necessary for students’ professional success (see Table 1). Therefore, to enhance the usability of the course for all majors, the specific sequence of course substitution was added into the course description for the GEEN courses, as well as reflected on the college-wide form required for students to participate in the GEEN courses. This level of specificity was required to insure buy-in from all departments.Once the senior design faculty members were satisfied with respect to the intended content andstructure of the course, the proposal moved to a series

such as collaborationand reflection. At the end, students demonstrate knowledge and are judged by how much theyhave learnt and how well they communicate it. Throughout this process, the teacher’s role is toguide and advise rather than to direct and manage student work [7]. In project based learning, theprojects will have varying complexity but all will relate in some way to the fundamental theoriesand techniques of an engineer’s discipline specialization. Successful completion of projects inpractice requires the integration of all areas of an engineer’s undergraduate training. Project workis more directed to the application of knowledge, management of time and resources by thestudents as well as task and role differentiation is very important

The current approaches may be good enough if we have sufficient time,staffing and solid faculty-librarian relationships. However, in reality, adoption of the current approachesmay be difficult for liaison librarians who serve a large number of faculty members and have many otherjob duties.As the University of Iowa College of Engineering has experienced significant growth in research, we twoengineering librarians see the necessity of

Cultivating several functioning weak ties assumes unwritten network requirementsthat are problematic due to their gender-neutral structure, an informal unwritten practice ofnetworks. With men usually in the highest positions of power (seen also in engineering fieldstoday), network structures are related to gender composition of the network and leadership withinthe network; therefore, making women tokenized members (Kanter, 1977).

Recent work by Barzilai and Zohar [2, 9] conceptualize epistemicthinking as the combination of epistemic cognition and epistemic metacognition, reflecting thestructure of non-epistemic thinking. Within the epistemic thinking framework, epistemiccognition is conceptualized using situation and context-specific models and epistemicmetacognition includes the dimensions from metacognition reframed to be specific to epistemicmatters.

The United States populationis 13% Black, but this representation is not reflected in the technology workforce. In fact, fewerthan 5% of tech company employees identify as Black. These factors lead many Blackemployees to leave, costing companies billions of dollars to fill their positions–not to mentiontheir perspectives and expertise. The lack of diversity can also affect worker wellbeing,productivity, and innovation. To interrogate this issue, our study examines the experiences ofBlack engineers through their own narratives.

It is crucial for engineers to be able to communicate their ideas toprofessionals outside of the technical realm such as humanitarians, politicians, and financialadvisers. The humanitarian education of engineering students is useless without the ability tocommunicate their globally conscious ideas and environmental concerns. To combat this, oral andwritten communication skills are incorporated into the curriculum using technical reports, oral-presentations, and reflective essays. After each experiment, it is suggested that a written report iscompleted as well as periodic reflective essays that ensure students are making a connectionbetween the technical experiments and their humanitarian aspects.3.4 Curriculum

application of LIWC is whether the pre-defineddictionaries that LIWC draws on are appropriate for the texts that are being analyzed. The essaysthat students compose in specific courses, for instance, may more strongly reflect concepts (assignaled by the words they use) in that course, and those concepts may not have been adequatelyanticipated in the development of LIWC.An emerging supervised method for text analysis uses naïve Bayesian computations. The methodis based on an extension of Bayes theorem and is used to create classifiers that identify predictorsthat are able to classify old and new instances. For instance, after training on a set of newspapereditorials written from reactionary and liberal perspectives, a Bayesian classifier can be used

Though individuals may hold egalitarian views, they can stillact in ways that reflect an implicit bias that is incongruent with their greater beliefs and/orintentions.
