She wishes for her contributions to enhance course interaction and ensure student perseverance in asynchronous engineering education for peers who rely on online learning options. In summer 2023, Youla was awarded a fellowship by The Office of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity (UReCA) at the University of Oklahoma. This fellowship enabled her to complete a Systematic Literature Review on asynchronous online engineering education under the title ”Teaching Online Engineering: A Systematic Literature Review”. Her research has contributed to identifying emerging themes in six finalist scholarly papers on asynchronous online engineering education and has offered
material through lectures and readings, and then they are evaluatedindividually [5]. The traditional approach has been especially difficult to sustain in engineeringeducation, as students frequently struggle with complex concepts that require deepcomprehension [5]. Furthermore, conventional lectures may not sufficiently prepare students toeffectively utilize their knowledge and skills in practical situations [5]. The constraints of thisapproach have sparked a significant increase in enthusiasm for collaborative learning strategiesin engineering education, in part aiming to tackle these difficulties and shortcomings [6][7].Collaborative learning represents a pedagogical shift that encourages students to actively engagewith their peers, working

ChatGPT has a significant ability to produce high-quality text that seamlessly mirrorshuman writing. Its proficiency extends to extracting knowledge and addressing challengingacademic queries. This inherent capability enables it to tackle examination questions that mayprove elusive through conventional web searches, delivering responses that are not only accuratebut also dependable [5].

For example, the topic of Additive Manufacturing, whichconstituted only two percent of the retrieved manufacturing-related activities has beenpopular among K-12 educators for at least a decade, at the emergence of three-dimensional (3D) printing era [10]. Such printers became a necessity in makerspaces andas one of the first I4.0-related activities in K-12 settings. Some authors are now trying tolink makerspaces to the advancement of manufacturing in I4.0 settings [12].Another discovery is the discipline orientation of the authors who write about both STEMeducation

of a scientist. Scientists aim to observe, infer,classify, predict, and hypothesize [14], [15]. In this sense the scientific method is based uponconsidering all of the different factors and data to form a conclusion. Another important aspect ofscience is that the “Scientific method does not insure the satisfactory solution of the problem...anymore than it insures the construction of an adequate hypothesis for the research problem” (p. 238)[16]. This statement suggests that a scientist’s mindset is primarily focused on the problemdefinition stage of problem solving.The problem-solving mindset is also evidenced in an expansive range of disciplines through theiracademic writing. It is apparent in social sciences, such as psychology, through

As Anzaldúa explored her ownupbringing and lived reality, she deconstructed those spaces she inhabited where she faceddiscrimination and ambiguity to imagine and (re)shape a third space where new realitiescould exist [16]. Through a process of self-reflexivity, Anzaldúa explains, Nepantla becomesa (re)imagined space rather than a dichotomy of worlds [16]. Anzaldúa claims that Nepantlasoften emerge through writing – the writing that comes from deep and critical reflection thateventually leads to a process that catalyzes transformation.Nepantla is also a way to explore the world through lived experience and engage indecolonial

The purpose of the SLR is toanalyze as many databases as possible, to enhance the search done in the previous work. Thesummary of the review protocol is shown in Figure 3. Knowing the platforms to be used, and the search phrase, the missing step from the firstphase comprised calculating the capture rate for the platforms selected (Figure 3), using thescoping set. The capture rate is a percentage that represents the ability to retrieve publicationsthat actually exist on the platforms, using the search terms19 (Figure 3) That is, it provides onemeasure of the quality of

If possible,multiple trips per school year (perhaps one fall, one spring) would help bring in more students. Itis difficult to comment on benefiting underrepresented students, as Duke (as are most colleges) isexpensive. Some students were attending simply to see what college life was like, while othersmay be specifically thinking about Duke as their post-secondary education. I believe those thatidentified as underrepresented students still found enjoyment and a ‘place’ with Duke, but morecommentary on
