a pace thatkeeps them relevant in the marketplace.Freely available technical content placed online has additional implications for the future ofengineering education. Videos, articles, blog posts, and open educational resources (OER) areavailable on many platforms and with varying levels of both production value and (notnecessarily connected) accuracy. Particularly in the fast-changing technical core, how do weassure the credibility and accuracy of content? When faculty are using content as part of theircourses, it is reasonable to place the onus on the instructor. When students are doing independentstudy, are we helping them develop their own capacity for ensuring credibility of their sources?How do we help students build their own

included if empathy development was amajor component examined or considered in the research. Many that integrated empathy did notdirectly explore its growth or development, it was more of a component considered or as part ofthe curriculum rather than the goal of the research. For example, McDonald and Pan (2020)presented feedback from graduate students on ethical considerations for artificial intelligence[49]. While this work elicited insight into prompting consideration of bias and fairness, fosteringempathy was more of an indirect outcome than the phenomena of focus. Alternatively studiesconducted in other countries were excluded since the interpretation and assessment of empathymay vary by culture depending on the societal norms and preferences

IntroductionEducational research has widely documented the achievement gap between students fromdifferent socioeconomic statuses (SES). The seminal work by Coleman et al. in 1966 sparked amyriad of studies and initiatives addressing this phenomenon with different views regardingrelation, incident factors, or effects [1][2][3][4]. Despite more than fifty years of documentedefforts, the prevalence of the gap, studied at national and global levels, continues to highlight theneed for renovated approaches [5][6]. At the college level, this gap manifests among studentsfrom lower SES with a higher attrition level, longer times to graduate, and significantly

As engineering educators, we wanted to know if there are skillsspecific to the success of multidisciplinary teams, as differentiated from general teamwork skills,with the ultimate goal of incorporating the skills into our course learning objectives andactivities. Further, we were unable to find research focused specifically on the importance ofmultidisciplinary teamwork skills and their prevalence among newly graduated engineers fromthe perspective of

Courses requiring interactive, hands-on experiences may make learningcontent before engaging in course activities overwhelming for some students [20]. Theinvestment in time required for instructors to develop quality out-of-class materials and in-classactive learning experiences can be substantial [21].The active learning approach of problem-based learning (PBL) has consistently demonstrated tolead to positive learning outcomes such as self-directed learning habits, problem-solving skills,and deep disciplinary knowledge while engaging students in collaborative, authentic learningsituations [22].

The group exam seeksto increase cooperative learning among students and to reduce stress levels thattraditional exams cause [41].
