Mechanics Project across the three constituent courses was doneover a period of three years, as illustrated in Fig. 3. By accident of history, we implementedDynamics first. In one semester, we put in place all four of the major changes of (1) moving tothe flipped recitation using UGTAs and one lecture per module, (2) creating course materials—notes and examples—that allowed (3) the implementation of mastery-based grading, and (4) theintroduction of computing projects as a major component of the course. A year later we hoistedup Statics, and a year after that Deformable Solids.While not part of an intentional plan, there was some advantage to working through Dynamicsbefore Statics. For example, many of the notational decisions were made to support

We had a contingencyplan in place in case some teams were not delivering the appropriate quality, this plan includedextra monitoring from the faculty members and the PhD students that were teaching assistants inthe course but this was not required as every team performed accordingly. Furthermore, with thissetting the students were able to develop a project that was not only real, but more complex thatthe projects used in the past.The guidance from the engineering education researchers and instructors helped the teammembers to use several strategies to overcome the challenges.

It got me thinking aboutmy own narrative of how I came to be an engineer, and how tortured I felt to deliver a quick,understandable explanation for why I belonged in engineering. I remember trimming parts of thestory that did not go well in my conversations with others, eliminating the parts that didn’t fitwell, were confusing, or left doubts about my qualifications. I was curious to what extent I mightrecognize these efforts in the narratives of other women.I was also surprised when my opening question did not work as planned, when participants didnot seem to understand it as an

And I will ask other classmates questions I don't understand after class and watch some relevant videos sometimes. After I need to finish the log, I will use the options on the log to plan what I will do in class or after class. For journaling reasons, I tried something I hadn't done before. Because of the participation log, I began to take notes in class and communicate with my classmates about the question that I have. I become more engaged especially out-of-class because I should pay more efforts and time to the course to earn the points for participation log.

Woolley, Chabris, Pentland, Hashmi, & Malone (2010) investigated the linkbetween collective intelligence factor of a group and their corresponding performance on variousteamwork tasks (e.g., brainstorming, planning events). They showed how collective intelligencewas more a function of social sensitivity of the members than the sum of individual intelligenceof each member. Notably, these factors were positively correlated with female participation andnegatively correlated with the number of speaking turns took during execution of tasks.
