Typically,these courses are chosen because about 30% of students earn a D, F, or W. In this study thesupport is Technology Assisted Supplemental Instruction (TASI) in Statics courses and itsimpact on Latinx students. Students’ sense of belonging and self-efficacy indicators weregathered and paired with final course grade as an academic marker of effectiveness of theintervention. This study is also notable, as it uses anti-deficit lens to understand not only theliterature but the effectiveness of the intervention.LITERATUREDespite being equally likely to pursue careers in STEM [1] and narrowing rates

Students can use job posting sites from both schools whenlooking for internships and jobs, giving them a broader view and a better chance of findingsomething that fits for them. Although there are many advantages to this dual degree program, there are still somedrawbacks as well. The major drawback is from an institutional side and is related to one of thestudent advantages. Students never see bills from the secondary university. Everything is sentthrough the business offices between the two schools. The communication between these officescan be difficult at times, and sometimes students will get lost in the shuffle. Those bills end upnot being paid and billed

The expectation of theSafeChE initiative is that these real-world case studies will show students howknowledge they are obtaining in their current class can be applied to safety within afuture career in industry. Also, since the CSB investigates incidents within the UnitedStates, some of our domestic students may study an incident that occurred “close tohome”.Another aspect

Nevertheless, the current scenario is that students inSTEM fields, with their increased demand for more specialized skills in fewer credit hourscombined with a lack of emphasis on writing from engineering faculty members, makeaddressing this need difficult. In addition, students in engineering fields often do not valuewriting skills and underestimate the amount of writing they will do in their careers. Hence, it isessential to understand and quantify the level of writing skills STEM students exhibit in theirtechnical courses so that mitigation efforts can be designed using commonly available resourcesto enhance this important skillset among the students

The latter group developed confidence and knowledge ofengineering areas that have traditionally been male dominated. However, the activities werenot sufficient to convince these young women that mathematics was a creative activity or that acareer in mathematics would be interesting.

Does the use of service-learning, development engineering experiences increase compassion in engineering students towards those for whom the design should benefit? 2. Does the use of these types of experiences increase professionalism and quality of effort in engineering students? 3. Do any potential gains in engineering student compassion and quality seem likely to continue into their careers?Previous work on compassion’s role in engineering service-learningThere have been many service-learning projects in engineering, as the discipline lends

solving opportunities versus traditional lecturing.For biomedical engineers (BME), the importance often holds greater weight given the nature ofthe field. As evidenced from the BME Council of Chairs meeting in 2019, academic surveyparticipants ranked statistics at the top of the list for importance to the career paths for BMEstudents [3]. Thus, it is critical for students to receive adequate statistics training and experiencein their undergraduate curriculum with focus on relevant applications. However, training inbiostatistics varies greatly from program to program. It can range from small elementsincorporated within multiple courses throughout a curriculum to full stand-alone statisticscourses or a combination. An evaluation of available degree

Many studies have been conducted to test the skill ofstudents with diverse educational backgrounds. Research conducted by [5] revealed that using astrategy known as a systematic way helps to increase the problem-solving and thinking capabilityof graduate students. This study also showed that after studying theoretical approaches and alsotheir possible implementation, students showed a considerable increase in systematic thinking aftera semester. To examine the impact of a simulation-based learning environment on elementarystudents, [6] proposed a system thinking
