Several participants expressed the value that CEE was auseful source of ideas for lessons, courses, and programs that faculty members can use ininstruction and share with colleagues. They also expressed the belief that the journal, as a peer-reviewed resource for content that is specific to the discipline, is used in practice, citing that, “itserves a really important role as both a research and a practice journal.” In addition, they

However, in the collaborative problem-solving paradigm, there is ageneral understanding that students can contribute to projects in a way that is more tailored totheir skills and interests. By promoting this approach, a culture of collaboration, innovation andinclusion in engineering education and the profession is fostered. This shift in focus should alsoinclude flexible teaching and evaluation methods that recognize that different students learndifferently [14].A Theory of Change for an Engineering DepartmentThe NSF

I felt as though I started early enough but towards the end, I started to become rushed which is unpleasant when you want to do your best in the creation of this design. I would change the amount of work and the kind of work I will do in the session I work. At first, I was just doing the fun stuff like coming up with ideas and working on rough prototypes which left all the harder report writing for the end. In the future I would like to more evenly balance these two aspects of many projects.”4.2 Flexing the creativity muscleFor reasons such as the open-ended nature of this project as well as sufficiently structured stepsinvolved in the

This adoption and emulation of attitudes, behaviors and practices – in allforms of linguistic and symbolic units – serve the purpose of being recognized as engineeringeducators by peers, mentors, professors, and those who are part of the world of engineering [38,39]. Thus, we posit that current discourses and practices of doctoral engineering students in theclassroom, as they engage in teaching, are a representation of the current culture of engineering.That is, doctoral engineering students enact overt and subtle behaviors learned and adopted inengineering spaces throughout their undergraduate and doctoral programs such as a sense ofsuperiority in their ability to solve

reference lists can be another way to discover other researchers from diverse backgrounds.AuditingAuditing citations at several points in the research process is important, especially as citationsoften change in the editing and peer review process. The UMD research guide to citation justicelinks to a basic spreadsheet template that can be used for in depth auditing [23]. Keeping trackof citation composition using a spreadsheet allows the audit to be in-depth and thorough,although it can be time consuming. Codes have also been developed to analyze the gender andethnic makeup of a bibliography and can provide an overview audit in a fraction of the time. It isimportant to keep in mind, however, that these codes are far from precise and are based

Students must redesign the part while preserving functionality to be suitable for both mass-production CNC machining and another manufacturing method dictated by the instructor (such as casting). It must be tested for failure at a specified load via finite element analysis and then simulated for safe, error-free production in Fusion 360 with a limit on maximum total machining time. Afterward, the student will write a short report including a cost analysis of before and after the redesign.This example would integrate CAD, CAE, and CAM into a single project. As a result, thestudent would need to consider multiple objectives during design: purpose, external loading, andmanufacturing

She is especially interested in how power relationships and rhetorical strate- gies affect group judgment in engineering design; one goal of this work is to to understand factors that inhibit full participation of students who identify with historically marginalized groups and investigate evidence-based strategies for mitigating these inequities. In addition, she is interested in technology and how specific affordances can change the ways we collaborate, learn, read, and write. Teaching engineer- ing communication

and breaking down professional silos and isolation in healthcare communitieshas led to the use of virtual communities of practice among other professions, such as ineducation and scientific research.Similar to healthcare professionals, education professionals have also experienced barriersassociated with professional silos and isolation. In particular, faculty at research-intensiveuniversities can hold alternative titles and roles within the institution, which can lead to differentperceptions among their faculty peers and students [7]. For instance, faculty on the tenure trackwith a higher research and lower teaching focused role will have the title “Professor”, whereasthose who have a more teaching focused role can be given the title

One common interview type is the cognitive interview which isused to elicit data on participants’ responses and interpretations of specific stimuli or situations[14]. One recent work-in-progress study is using cognitive interviews to assess peer reviewingamong EER mentored groups [35].

Weextend the current understanding of interest to move beyond the “strength” of an overallengineering interest to include a more nuanced, disciplinary approach. Primary interest refers tothe initial engineering major that engineering students declared when they started their program.When considering how interests change, this establishes a starting focus for participants.Additional disciplinary interest is used to delineate interests that are beyond students

By Spring 2023 (as of the writing of this work-in-progress paper), all capstone design projects in the department of EE have been converted tofit the TRUE project model, which means all capstone projects are real-world projects withindustry/community sponsors/partnerships.

This is often attributed to student-centered, deficit-based factors suchas a lack of access to K-12 computing courses, culturally relevant role models and curricula, andsense of belonging. However, research notes how racial “othering” in university courses,departments, and cultures from peers, faculty, and staff negatively impact them [2]–[4].Shifting national conversations around race, racism, and anti

Engineering identity also strongly contributes tostudents’ desires to stay in the field [31-33]. Students who are more interested in and motivatedby the social impact of engineering do not always identify as engineers [25] because of theemphasis on technical engineering work [13]. This is especially concerning in light of recentevidence suggesting that female-identified students place more importance on the sociotechnicaldimensions of engineering than their male-identified peers [23, 34].

CS Curriculum Design There have been great strides in determining potential areas of improvement among CScourses and programs [e.g., 26, 27, 28]. One area of literature focuses on college students nothaving the necessary skills and knowledge to work in the industry [29, 30, 31, 32]. In regard totheir soft skills, graduates tend to struggle with their verbal [31, 33] and writing [28, 30, 34]skills, in particular, clearly articulating their problems when they need help [29]. In regard totechnical skills, graduates often lack the ability to use a number of industry software tools, suchas configuration management and database tools [29, 32, 35]. Another
