Students wishing to enroll in the EngineeringFundamentals course must have successfully passed one of the following courses: CollegeMathematics for Managerial, Social, and Life Sciences (MATH 1630), Pre-calculus (MATH1730), or Calculus I (MATH 1910). These prerequisite courses are typically taken by first-yearstudents, depending on their

For example, while attending a conference, a student may be encouraged to reflect on a recent classroom learning experience. • Abstract conceptualization: In this stage, the learner forms new ideas or modifies existing ideas based on reflection. For example, after reflecting on the research problem, the learner may adjust their initial perception (learned during lectures) of how best to solve it. • Active experimentation: In this stage, learning is transferred to other settings around the learner.

Although students value in-person interactions over technology-based interactions, technology is a good ally to fostercommunity and aid the learning process.IntroductionEngaging students in the classroom is always challenging for instructors, but research suggeststhat motivation can be sparked by appealing to students’ desire to make a positive impact on theworld [1], [2]. Keshwani and Curtis [2] found that sophomore students in biological engineeringare motivated by the opportunity to make this world a better place, help others solve problems,and improve other people's lives.

Butthat conception is limited because it only focuses on one aspect of human behaviour.Underlying all human action is a set of values that help us to say yes or no to the actions thatjoin us one to another interpersonal or through object design. Thus in the model oftechnology presented in exhibit 1 the basis of technological design, for that matter all design,is the value system of the designer(s).

While natural processes act without political/social intent, people practice science within a social context that is immersed in cultures infused with political and social power differentials. The questions asked, priorities assigned, interpretation of data, and presentation of results are all deeply subjective. Conversely, SE respects and values varied ways of knowing and, therefore, the sharing of power over what and how engineers should research, design, and implement. ● Meritocratic: Meritocracy is the false assumption that the system as it currently exists is fair and just.

Similarly, the survey results showed that the average rating for instructor supportand guidance was 2.5 out of 5.

IntroductionThe design and operation of energy systems have direct impacts on the environment and society.Generating electricity by burning fossil fuels leads to greenhouse gas emissions and is one of themain culprits for the changing climate. Even renewable energy resources such as wind, solar, orhydro can have negative impacts on material usage, local environment, and/or microclimate.Moreover, the way electricity is produced, transmitted, and distributed to consumers canpotentially bring up many energy (in)justice issues.

While NC grades may be considered a negative impact on retention and graduation, they are less detrimental to a student’s success than Fs.
