These benefits are measured by the amount oftransparency students perceive in the course, their self-ratings of academic confidence, sense ofbelonging, and improved mastery of skills that employers value, and direct assessment of thestudents’ work.The most conclusive experimental evidence to date on the benefits of transparent assignmentscomes from a large-scale pilot study of seven minority-serving institutions, including 1,180students, 35 faculty members, and 61 courses, of which most were introductory-level courses and12 were intermediate-level [2].

The DLCs will be anopportunity for beginning and future faculty to engage in learning about and critiquingdiscipline-based education research through formal workshops facilitated by faculty in thediscipline. The framework will provide curricular resources to help faculty facilitate theseprograms, thus, lowering barriers to
strong science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) workforce is essential and critical in advancing the economy and society of the future. But the U.S continues to trail the world in math and science. And also the number of U.S students pursuing a STEM career or educating is decreasing as mentioned in [1] – [3]. A change in the way math is taught and presented in the classroom is urgently needed. Instructors need to be able to engage the students in learning by communicating that the study of mathematics and its objective is not to study math for math sake but to be able to apply it as a tool to solve the world’s complex and essential problems. The topic of sustainable energy is no longer a topic reserved for scientists and

science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines are interested inmaking their instructional materials more representative of their students’ identities. However,they often lack guidance and time for finding these materials. Utilizing our specialized skills infinding resources as librarians, we developed the Representation in STEM (RIS) course toprovide resources and guidance on finding and using more representative materials across STEMdisciplines. The course is comprised of pages that can be adopted as micro-lessons indisciplinary courses, lowering the barrier for faculty to participate in more inclusive instruction.To ensure RIS is as useful as possible for faculty and students, pages from the disciplines andspecial topics

More than 25% of distance engineeringstudents are active military or veterans, compared to about 12% of all engineering students.Ibrahim and Morsi2 presented one of the earliest comprehensive reviews of distance Electricaland Computer Engineering programs. In a survey of over 120 programs across the UnitedStates, the authors found that most distance programs in both engineering and technology wereassociate degrees. At the time of the survey, a single responding institution offeredbaccalaureate engineering degrees at a distance
