The course rating improved significantly, achieving a rating of 4.9 outof 5.0, the highest in the last twenty years. Comparing student performance between murdermysteries and traditional teaching in an exam shows a statistically significant result. Students inthe murder mystery-style class performed nearly two standard deviations better than those in thelecture-based teaching course.1.

The coursewas taught face-to-face during both semesters. The data was collected for 30 topics calledobjectives, each of which had individual lessons called nodes. The data was collected under threecategories, namely activity type, participation type, and performance type.1) Activity Type: These activities are related to ALP interactions for instruction, practice, andreview.

Many AE graduates areconfronted with these fragmentation problems in real-world construction projects, such as poorcommunication and lack of cooperative consciousness or experience [2]. Compounding this, the problemof fragmentation also exists in the education field that leads to certain consequences and a cyclic educationdeficit problem. Studies from researchers illustrate that most engineering students were taught technicalknowledge via isolated and, thus domain-specific courses with limited to no teaching of integratedapproaches. This limited educational focus causes a lack of knowledge and experience in collaboration forstudents entering the workforce [3]. Moreover, the education model of the AEC

The cohortstructure allows for close relationships to form, combatting the social isolation that historicallymarginalized students may feel in CS classes. Peer mentoring benefits students by offeringfurther academic, social, and professional development support within the program. Project-based learning provides strong ties to students’ major area(s) of study (primarily biology andbiochemistry) and supports students’ future success in fields that are becoming increasingly data-driven.1 Finally, the minor program courses focus

While many frameworks and systems exist tosupport engineering faculty as they (re)design their courses, design thinking has emerged as oneviable framework due to its human-centered, creative, diverse, and adaptive nature [1-5]. Still,studies show that certain mindsets and approaches essential to design thinking may bechallenging for faculty, especially those in engineering [6]. Thus, if engineering educators hopeto leverage design thinking for course design, how might it be accomplished? This study seeks

Past studies investigating students’ motivation for learning to use coding andprogramming tools have demonstrated significant variability in students’ motivational factors[1]. Earlier studies with students in introductory programming courses demonstrated thatstudents in less computationally intense degree programs often demonstrate a lower sense of selfefficacy and are likely to believe that coding is unlikely to be a key part of their education orcareer [2] [3] [4] [5].
