University B, focuses on group work and project-based learning.Possible interventions in socio technical thinking for this course include: • Design two workshops focusing on sociotechnical thinking to help guide students through their course projects. • Challenge students throughout the semester with design constraints that foster sociotechnical thinking. • Require students to keep reflection logs that document their technical and social reasoning, including for final projects. • Structure grading to reflect the importance of sociotechnical thinking.Sociotechnical Survey DevelopmentThe primary focus of this paper is the development of our survey instrument, which is designedto measure students’ sociotechnical thinking

construction course, capstone design, and aprofessional issues course. Being introduced to leadership ideas early in the undergraduatecurriculum, which are reinforced in later courses, may be a good strategy to motivate studentsand encourage their interest around leadership topics. A number of students also identifiedinternships and other co-curricular activities as contributing to their leadership skills (e.g. ROTC,professional society president, sports activities). Instructors may want to consider the tenets ofEVT when integrating leadership education into the curriculum, explaining the utility value ofthese skills in the workforce and using metacognition to have students reflect on their ownleadership experiences so that they build self-efficacy

. This conflation of moments and rotationsmight reflect “inappropriate groupings” or overly simple causal narratives created by studentslike those described in [12]. Even Jasmine, who provided the correct definition of momentconsistently, struggled with its relationship to rotation. Further analysis of the full interviewsmay help provide clarification of the type of misconception as well as factors that influence itsdevelopment or reinforcement. For example, Kayla mentions that the terms are “usually in thesame sentence” when discussed in class, leading her to see them as the same. Thus, themisconception might be reinforced by analogies typically used in instruction. The effects of thismisconception on course performance might also be

this technology Provide any additional feedback you Free response haveIn this initial module deployment, collection of student feedback was somewhat limited in aneffort to keep the module similar in workload and structure to the other software options. Notwanting to deter interested students during the pilot test of this module, the feedback wasrestricted to a single online survey at the conclusion of the module. In future semesters,instructors plan to survey students both before and after completing the module (weeks 1 and 4)to investigate changes in perceived knowledge and attitudes about the technology. In addition,students will be asked to complete a short reflection about their experience during the module,whether they consulted

also adapted Ashford and Blacks [7] scales measuring proactive behaviors across six dimensions: (a) feedback seeking, (b) positive framing, (c) general socializing, (d) relationship building, (e) networking, and (f) information seeking [7]. Though these scales were developed to understand workplace socialization, we adapted them to reflect the context of engineering education. Then, to assess normative contexts, we developed a new five-question scale to explore students’ involvement in extra- and co-curricular activities. First, we ask students to list engineering-related organizations in which they participated. Second, and germane to the concept of socialization, we ask how students

?Three distinct phases of a woman’s journey were examined. First, a sample of women who havealready completed an undergraduate engineering degree from a public university was studied.Secondly, women in their upper division year of their undergraduate degree program were askedto reflect on their experiences over their undergraduate career. Both of these groups of womenwere asked questions from the same interview protocol. Finally, classes were observed anddiscourse was analyzed in gatekeeper courses to understand the interaction of women and theirprofessors as well as women with their peers, both male and female. The lens of Feminist PostStructuralism and of Sense-Making allowed the critical analysis to shine a light on theunderlying cultural

The whole learning process wasguided by a series of logically connected questions to strengthen students’ critical thinking and learningabilities. To raise student’s interest and keep students engaged throughout the class, videos anddemonstrations of real-world applications were used. Figure 7.

This is done by apprenticing students in interpreting, producing, andevaluating discipline-specific texts in ways that reflect practices utilized by experts in the field. Ithas been shown that teachers can use DLI to provide K-12 students with a framework forinterpreting, evaluating, and generating discipline-specific texts. Students who receive DLI andlearn to “read like” professional practitioners performed better on various outcome measurescompared to students that did not have DLI [5], cf. [6], [7], [15], [16]. The findings emergingfrom these studies suggests that DLI improves both women and minority student performance[16] in a variety of disciplines, and thus encourages research on DLI to improve

This was students’ first exposure to engineering in Physics, which is reflected intheir lower initial confidence regarding the engineering design process (mean = 1.67, σ = .16). Atthe end of the unit, their interest in science and engineering had grown marginally (mean = 3.10,σ = .21), while their confidence in both 21st century skills and the engineering design processgrew to means of 3.53 (σ = .22) and 2.12 (σ = .16) respectively.

This provided the students with theunique opportunity to highlight activities that reflected their degrees and helped ensure that theprojects chosen, accurately represented their field. In addition, this experience exposed theundergraduate students to other engineering fields and challenged them to develop contentoutside of their areas of study. To do this, the students formed interdisciplinary teams with otherstudents and faculty members that brainstormed ideas for content. They also as acted as testgroups for verifying the effectiveness of the content and presentations. Through this

To address this knowledge gap, focus group interviews and surveys wereconducted to gather reflections and input from upper-level students. Outcomes from thesubsequent analysis are intended to provide deeper insight into the value that students place ontheir initial experiences with engineering at the college level, allowing educators to betterinvolve first-year students in class while at the same time prepare them for their chosenprofessional pathways.

GamesAbstract:Students being engaged in lectures plays a big role in their learning process. Students come tolectures sometimes tired, bored, or just have lots of things going on in their mind, either personal,or course/program related, etc. As such it is important to set their mind clear to be ready to digestthe new material they are going to learn in the course. It is also important to excite them enoughto come to early morning classes and keep their attention to stay in the late afternoon classeswhile staying focused.This paper discusses the use of different methods to increase engagement, attention andattendance in class and the students’ reflection on these methods. Some of these engagementpieces are directly course related and some are just general
