Using a pre- and post-projectsurvey from two cohorts of students, we determined the effectiveness of the assignment andgauged the extent to which students believed that their demographics influenced their motivation.Demographic-based influences are defined here as whether students believe that they are moremotivated to be successful in their major based on their race, gender, community, etc. Our datademonstrate that EML scores, which is

This consistent commitment to weeklymeetings not only fostered team building among the grant team members but also contributed tothe long-term sustainability of the program.Scholar SupportEach year, in addition to financial assistance, the scholars receive strategically curated academicsupport and professional development resources. The level of support and resources evolve withthe changing needs of the students. Since the program's inception in the Fall of 2022, only onecohort has completed a full year of study, and the second has begun their first year

I was given the grant proposal to go over to find outif I would be interested. The proposal also provided an idea of what would be expected from me,and what the research goals were. I accepted the offer since I felt that it would be beneficial tome, especially since I intend to further my studies after graduation.

The possible responses were “very much,” “considerably,” “somewhat,” “hardly,” and “not.”• How important is this ethical issue to society? The possible responses were “very much,” “considerably,” “somewhat,” “hardly,” and “not.”The ethical issues can be described as macroethics in the sense that these problems demand thecollective actions of engineers and society, as opposed to microethics that typically involves onlyindividuals. Undeniably, the study of macroethics is significantly different from topics thatmight emerge in a more conventional engineering ethics course and requires new content

The questions were chosen by the professor and planned ahead oflecture to uncover how to approach problems and derive insights. Two discussions varying inlength from five to ten minutes were planned for each class meeting. When asked onself-assessments, students found this learning approach unsettling because they were put on thespot and felt embarrassed if they could not give what they believed was a correct answer.Nevertheless, students found value in practicing verbal skills and in being guided. Thediscussions gave the professor an opportunity to quickly change the pace and mode of learning inthe classroom, to personally interact

similar sense, promotion can be very important in the generation of external funds fromalumni and industrial professionals. At Cal Poly, emphasis is placed on laboratory- and field-based instruction. A program with such an emphasis can become expensive. Thus, a promotionplan was developed with the specific goal of raising the funds necessary to run the program.Finally, besides money, program support can come in other forms. Some examples include:field trip ideas, guest speakers for courses, class design projects, senior project ideas, serviceproject ideas, and equipment donations. All of these benefits have been recognized at Cal Poly,even though the faculty have spent only a relatively small amount of time developing apromotion plan.3.4 Acquire

SEEM TO MATTERABSTRACTIn this paper we explore engineering student gains in confidence in professional andinterpersonal skills and intrinsic psychological motivation to study engineering. These twofactors were selected because they have been shown in other work from the Academic PathwaysStudy (APS) sponsored by the Center for the Advancement of Engineering Education (CAEE) tobe directly related to post-graduation plans and to several dimensions of the undergraduateexperience. We focus on students with positive confidence and/or motivation gains during theirfirst two years of college, and show that these students are distinct from those with negative orno gains in terms of persistence in the engineering profession, confidence in math and

We need to know how to direct ourmentors to activate learning, team formation, and team performance.Our research question then is: “What roles and practices can mentors take to activate team formation, team performance, and individual learning?”Effective mentor roles were surfaced using a qualitative method case study. The case involved aclass of 44 students and six mentors. Each week the mentors conducted the lab, recorded theirinsights of effective mentoring practices, distilled “best practices,” and incorporate these into thenext week’s lab plan.

I spent two years as an assistant professor at a 75% appointment, whichwould stop the tenure clock temporarily, giving me the option of returning, which I chose not todo. I am now on the third year of a three-year appointment as a lecturer, currently beingevaluated for renewal, which I am expected to easily receive.

The portfolio for engineering assessment has been described by Williams.2 Inrecent years, a number of authors have identified various uses3 of the portfolio for thepurposes of engineering education; this paper focuses on our experience of portfolio usefor multi-year projects, in a progressive development

We make sure it remains part of ourfocus for our students to be empowered to keep that first job, move up in that job, find better-suited jobs in the future, and serve humanity as ethical multifaceted engineers and civic-mindedjustice-oriented informed citizens.Consequently, our plan to sustain this effort has two pillars.
