, Steven described a desire to “travel more as itis my main goal in life on top of pursuing a career in engineering.”Concluding Discussion Although literature suggests that experiential global learning programs positively impactstudent outcomes, not all student groups are equally represented in global programs. As we havediscussed, some student groups remain systematically excluded from global programs inengineering, including prospective transfer students and students from low SES or first-generation backgrounds. Experiences of these students are underexplored largely because of theminimal representation of these groups in global programs. Thus, this paper illuminated theexperiences of prospective transfer students from low SES backgrounds

However, the transition from the freshmanto sophomore year is a critical formational period and yet often neglected in student successinitiatives [1-3]. The sophomore year is a defining moment in the college career, and also a timethat is filled with uncertainty and a sense of losing support students had in their freshmen year [2,4-6]. We recognized the need for students to strengthen their motivation, resolve, and capabilityto persevere through the challenges that tend to hit them particularly hard when they reach theirfirst engineering courses, typically in their sophomore year. We hypothesized that servicelearning projects during the students’ freshman

The cyberlearning environment or tool that was developed with funding from the NSF was considered to be useful and user friendly by students who used the tool. 2. Gamification was considered by students to be motivating. 3. Students suggested that the tool should be used as an integral part of the course rather than as an add-on.1 IntroductionEmployment outlook for students with computer science degrees is very good.
