As a result, instilling the memory of past accidentsand their lessons learned in engineering students can be seen as serving the function of diversityin redundancy (where memory resides and who recalls and exercises it) to help to avoid a repeatof similar accidents. Teaching engineering students about accident causation and system safetycan serve to complement and reinforce institutionalized safety requirements, and it

The study also examined the factors of support within the institution, withan emphasis on understanding the effectiveness of various programs and policies (i.e. family-friendly policies, mentoring programs, faculty diversity initiatives) designed to support womenfaculty in engineering.Background on the Problem Compared to their male peers in academic engineering programs, the female faculty isless likely to reach full professorships (Easterly and Ricard, 2011; Touchton, 2008). Rather,women are concentrated at the lower ranks of academia as assistant professors, lecturers andadjunct faculty (Fox, 2010). In 2006, women accounted for 30.5% of non-tenure track instructors,  but only 11.9% of associate professors and 3.8% of full

students want from TAs in engineering education settings.Prior Use of NLP in EducationThe use of NLP in education has been significant, particularly in the assessment andclassification of student learning. Assessment involves determining the quality and level ofstudent learning, while classification aims to comprehend student learning without evaluating it.Automated assessment is an attractive solution for large student populations, and one of the mostcommon applications of NLP in education is the assessment of student writing in the Test ofEnglish as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) [3]. NLP is used to evaluate grammar, mechanics, wordusage, complexity, style, and organization of student essays. NLP-based assessments havedemonstrated remarkable

Itutilizes the approaches like active learning, collaborative learning, and project/problem-basedlearning, which require students to work in teams and extensively communicate with peers tocomplete assignments. While the extensive teamwork experience should create high proficiencyin student professional communication and collaboration skills, the primary focus of theassignments and the instructional support still remains on the core technical knowledge and skillsand often lacks direct instructor’s interventions with respect to the communication andcollaboration skills [14], [15].
