Figure 1 - Illustration of a doodle exchange in Round 1. Presented to explain the rules.We instrumented the game as follows to track the prevalence of each doodle across time: 1. Each “datasheet” is marked with a unique identifier number (ID). Additionally, the sheets have numbered spaces for recording IDs as described in step 4. 2. When students create their initial doodle, they copy this ID into the corner of the sticky. Henceforth, this ID uniquely identifies that particular doodle and is considered an integral part of the doodle itself. 3. During

However, this promising frameworkfaces challenges in being fully implemented in a formal academic setting. For example, our earlyresults showed the lack of tools that instructors can use to measure the effectiveness of CoP in anacademic setting (Díaz et al., 2022b, Díaz et al., 2023b). CoP-based surveys that were developedin other contexts, like the Community Assessment Toolkit (CAT: Verburg & Andriessen, 2006),were not appropriate to use in graduate engineering students, while other methodologies relyheavily or exclusively on time-consuming qualitative
backgrounds to successfully transfer to and persist in theengineering program at UCI. The designed program targets the population of students who havethe ambition to pursue engineering degrees, but often lack the resources or exposure toengineering opportunities. The program was developed to help combat low persistence rates andlong times to completion within the transfer student population. The goal of the project is toincrease the number of community college students who successfully transfer to an engineeringmajor at a 4-year institution and to improve the transfer student experience in engineering byproviding co-curriculum cohort activities to prepare for STEM careers or graduate studies. Co-curricular activities include a mentoring program as

rhetorical knowledge, critical thinking, and reading for first-year compositioncourses, composing, writing processes, and knowledge of conventions. The first-year 1composition curriculum emphasizes the rhetorical situation (writer, audience, purpose, andcontext), rhetorical appeals (logical, ethical, and emotional), and genre awareness in the writingprocess [1]. Most first-year composition courses are taught and/or administrated by English orCommunication departments.Although engineering undergraduates learn academic writing in first-year composition or othergeneral education writing courses, they often struggle to transfer the writing knowledge fromthose courses to engineering courses [2].

Hess, Purdue University at West Lafayette (COE) Dr. Justin L Hess is an assistant professor in the School of Engineering Education at Purdue University. Dr. Hess’s research focuses on empathic and ethical formation in engineering education.

He is the editorial board chair for the Online Ethics
courses for many years. However, only a relatively small number of faculty at mosttraditional universities had received formal distance learning training and were actually teachingin an online platform. Oftentimes these courses were in one way or another a “specialty” courseoffering and were often taught in disciplines outside of STEM. For those courses that hadsuccessfully integrated digital platforms, online learning provided a carefully designed learningecosystem [1]. One of the objectives of these learning ecosystems was to increase access tolearning opportunities through the incorporation of synchronous, asynchronous, flippedclassroom and independent study activities designed to simulate the active learning environment,even in remote

Educational systems are ripe forinnovation through a systems perspective.Research suggests that using a systems perspective in teacher preparation can facilitate theformation of a teacher identity and improve TC capacity for developing solutions to problemsthat arise in the context of their own practice [4]. Other studies demonstrate effective strategiesfor enhancing TCs' capacity for systems thinking in environmental science [5], engineeringeducation [6], and biology [7].Although efforts have been made to integrate the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS),meaningful implementation has not yet become widespread since many teachers have

To determine the impact of the program, this paperexamines the following research questions: RQ1. Does participation in SEEK improve students’ academic self-efficacy? How does impact compare across gender? RQ2. How well does academic self-efficacy predict students’ aspirations of becoming an engineer? For boys? For girls?BackgroundNSBE created the
highestbarrier in the questionnaire results. After lack of time, access to materials was cited as the secondbiggest barrier during the interview.The factors lack of knowledge, inability to figure out books and problems, and difficulty in NElesson planning were described as major concerns after the top three barriers. From the interviewresponses, it is apparent that figuring out books and problems is just one aspect of knowledgewhen it comes to integrating NE into curriculum. Being knowledgeable about which direction tofollow, what lessons to cover, and finding age appropriate materials were some of the otherproblems identified by teachers.2. Effects of PDIn order to determine whether there might be any relationship between participants
learners across globalcontexts, further work is needed to explore the implementation and adaptation of AL acrossglobal contexts (Mtika and Gates), particularly from the firsthand perspective of educatorsleading curricular transformation.To contribute to this gap in literature, our purpose is to describe the curricular design andimplementation of a bidirectional faculty development workshop, designed to support Malawianfaculty in integrating AL approaches into engineering courses. The faculty developmentworkshop was collaboratively led by Malawi-trained engineering faculty and United States-trained engineering faculty, providing an example of bidirectional knowledge-sharing on theimplementation of AL approaches across global contexts. Specifically
efforts, outcomes, and student responses received by introducing ML tofirst-year engineering students in ENES100.PilotDuring the spring 2023 semester, a machine learning curriculum was piloted to three sections,totaling 120 students in ENES100. The goal was to determine the most effective way toimplement ML in ENES100. The team decided that the integration of hands-on, interactivemachine learning projects would be the most beneficial approach. Huang used a project basedlearning (PBL) paradigm when designing a machine learning module for first-year students atLoyola Marymount University because PBL has been shown to positively impact studentengagement, motivation, and self-efficacy [2]. Since ENES100 already follows a project basedapproach
promotion track, which limits the possibility of being able to drawconclusions from the analysis. In addition, the “other” category did not have enough samples toobserve patterns properly. However, it is essential to note that the “other” category includedgraduate students and post-doctoral researchers, showing that younger educators are engagingwith the community. This engagement means that these students and researchers are preparingfor teaching in their future careers. An additional and exciting note is that all faculty rankspossessed a type of administrative role (e.g., program directors, chairs, or program coordinators).This shows how the Share and Learn events can impact participants and add value to programsand curriculums through potential

]), supporttransferable skill development [7], and increase engagement [8]. Results in the physiology coursedescribed here support these outcomes. Individual test scores were not different across multiplesemesters including the Control and Intervention groups, and team scores in the Interventiongroups were increased by an average of 18% relative to the individual scores. Notably, each testcontained questions that were categorized as either “retention and recall” or as “comprehension”[12]. Comprehension questions assess students’ abilities to apply and integrate concepts in waysthat are useful for engineering problem-solving approaches, consistent with the idea oftransferable skill development.

integrated into every civil engineering curriculum and first-year studentsare introduced to the CEBOK3, the duty of responsible charge, and the “roadmap” that willprepare them for future practice, as part of their undergraduate education. The CEBOK3 can bealigned with course syllabi to reinforce how the courses being taken help fulfill theundergraduate education outcomes in the CEBOK3. Since these outcomes are closely alignedwith ABET criteria for civil engineering programs, this should not prove difficult to do.Throughout the four years of instruction, academia should continue to build understanding ofwhat is ahead for their students once they graduate. Students should have a clear understandingthat their education has only begun and that they will
