forethought phase occurs before learners begin work on the task andinfluences how they engage in the task and their ability to succeed in it. In this phase, thelearners analyze the task, assess their motivational beliefs, and plan strategies to successfullyobtain their goals and complete the task. In the performance phase, the learners undertake thetask, using self-control to adhere to their planned strategies and self-observation to monitor theirprogress and evaluate their work. In the final phase, self-reflection, learners use self-judgmentand self-reaction to reflect on the effectiveness of the strategies they used during the performancephase and their need for future improvements. Causal attributions only affect self-feedbackpositively when
in the list correspond to hierarchically lower categories and provide a foundation to build upon to reach and achieve higher categories. In addition, the taxonomy has a dimension exploring four types of knowledge: factual, conceptual, procedural, and metacognitive. This taxonomy can greatly aid educators in clearly defining course goals to achieve desired learning outcomes, and it also helps align the expectations of students and educators for the learning experience in a course. Thus, Bloom’s taxonomy can also inform the assessment techniques that educators might use to evaluate whether students have truly grasped the planned learning goals. In fact, Bloom’s taxonomy has been applied in an ECE education context. Meda and

While on-site, the STEM students spent the day sharing their research,discussing the transition from high school to college, and mentoring their younger peers.Details of the grass-roots history of this initiative are included. How STEM on the Road waslaunched using internal funding sources will be explained along with how the initiative pivotedduring the global pandemic to offer a “STEM on the Net” version of itself. The current state ofthe initiative will also be discussed to show how it has evolved to support changes in theUniversity’s strategic plan for diversity.IntroductionRetention and recruitment (R&R) activities are a major focus of higher education institutions asthey struggle to maintain enrollments and expand programs focused on

The student projects were designedand evaluated based on the following learning outcomes of the VALUE rubrics: creative thinking,inquiry and analysis, integrative learning, and team collaboration.The following process were used to assess the aforementioned learning outcomes of VALUErubrics in each project. The assessment process for the projects’ learning outcomes was based onthe following, which are mapped in Figure 1. • If students developed a logical, consistent plan, recognized consequences of solutions and if they could articulate the reason for choosing

the wheelchair. Figure 1a: Screw hole Figure 1b: Sparkfun motor Figure 2: 3D drawing Next, we had to design the piece that would attach to the wheelchair’s frame and theSparkfun motor. For this, we used solid works, as we planned on 3D printing the piece. We wereworking with about 12 cm of length on the rod, and the diameter of the inside of the part had to bejust about 2.2 cm to fit on the rod. We tried to find the best balance of strength and freedom ofmobility, as we wanted the piece to be strong enough not to break, but needed to allow for the fullunrestricted rotation of the motor. With these things in mind, we decided on a thickness of 0.3 cm.The

This will be an areafor improvement and stronger focus in upcoming offerings. One way to mitigate this is to focuson these topics using a very small system and hand calculations before moving to a larger systemwhich requires a computer to perform the calculations.In the future, the authors plan to collect data from future offerings of the course to improve uponwhat has been done. This data could be used to answer the question of whether this method ofinstruction is proven to be more effective than simply giving students a simulator to use.In addition, the authors plan to release the course materials

Outcome 5 mentions leadership,collaboration, inclusivity, and several management tasks, such as setting goals, planning tasks,and meeting objectives, to clarify the meaning of effective team functioning. Because our programs have courses that require groups of students to work as a team, ourprograms generally meet Outcome 5. However, we would like to do better than merely meet theoutcome. Standing in our way are two challenges: As engineers with expertise in other topics,curating instructional materials (learning activities and assessments) related to teamworkeffectiveness is challenging. There are so many options for teaching students how to work betterin teams that it is overwhelming, making it challenging to select the most appropriate

Figure 1 presents the initial version ofthe VRI, as deployed with the Phase I (first) pilot.Figure 1.

who participated in the study experienced challenges related to planning andoperationalizing their lessons (e.g., knowing how to select content for their lessons), using thelearning management system, and navigating online classroom environments. Further, analyzingthe data through the lens of Schlossberg’s Transition Theory helped identify that the supportstructure used to cope with challenges was informal mentorship, i.e., participants sought supportfrom senior peers who had taught the same classes they were teaching and built their materialfrom existing resources. These findings provide a first step in creating specific professionaldevelopment activities for both new engineering faculty and new faculty generally to improvetheir experience

To close the loop of the study, adynamic response design is required to collect input and output spectral analysis data, which isthen defined by performance [5] [7]. The study also proposed an implementation design anddeployment plan for UAS flight characteristics.Implementation Design and Deployment of the UAS Flight CharacteristicsThis gap analysis review highlights the need to develop applications using mathematicalmodeling to support advanced configuration for the characterization, identification, and analysisof rotorcraft flight maneuvers, including simulated and flight data [6] [7].

that assessment was not inclusive enough for minoritygroups, despite recent curriculum changes to include more coursework. Literature supportsthe argument that very little has changed in terms of tried and tested assessment methods e.g.closed exams, and that student choice and universal design for assessment need to be betterprioritised going forward [17].As part of the planned updates, it is important that students take some ownership ofdiscussion and activity around EDI and that it resonates with them and their livedexperiences. Our findings suggest that a proportionally significant number of studentrespondents – 22 out of 56 (39.3% disagree at some level or neither agree/disagree) felt thattheir elected student representatives either failed

Firstly, a pre-course survey will be given to students with a set of questions. Thesequestions aim to gather information on the prior knowledge of students related to energyconversion, the specific topics they would like to cover in depth, the format of the course theyprefer, and their interest in

Further investigation is planned into causality of thesecorrelations, and into additional factors that may correlate with earnestness, including: studentstruggle (as measured by time spent and number of attempts required for correct completion) onassessment questions for which students do not have access to the correct answer; variations inlevel of difficulty of questions within a set (for the evaluation in this paper, the level of difficultyfor a question set was defined based on the hardest question in the set); the length of timerequired to perform the participation activities; the percentage of exercises

incrementally throughout the semester, students are notoverwhelmed by the volume of information and hardware options available to them. In this way,the course is also paced appropriately for students.Students taking this course often comment that they plan to rely on a single navigation technique,which is most often the positioning system, for their initial design plans. The structure of theactivities teaches the most robust navigation techniques first. So, by teaching the positioningsystem technique last, students are forced to learn all of the other techniques. As a consequence,many students decide to use the navigation systems they have already implemented and tested andbuild upon them throughout the semester, rather than picking one at the

Day 2 Update is submitted as an ~6-8-minute video PowerPointpresentation two days after the second lab day. The goal of this deliverable is for the student toprovide an oral preliminary report where the lab instructor can provide feedback on experimentalplans and preliminary results as well as insight on how to plan for the third and final lab day. Theuse of the video was to give students additional opportunities to improve their oral presentationskills while preventing any loss of lab time. The ~10-12 min oral presentation is given during thescheduled lab period and is graded by both the primary instructor and lab instructor. The writtenreport is due 24 hours after the oral presentation so that students can use the questions andfeedback

This technology can assist designers and clients by providing enhanced visualization and understanding of the space, allowing them to make more informed decisions. VR can also be used for visualization enabling architects to create realistic renderings and animations for the design presentation. Lastly, VR can be used in construction, warranting the builders to plan and visualize the construction process

The courses were Thermodynamics (foursections), Engineering Statistics (one section), and Dynamics (one section). These are coursestaken in the student’s Junior year. Engineering Statistics is a required course for all engineeringmajors. Thermodynamics is required for Mechanical and Chemical engineering. OnlyMechanical and Civil engineering students are required to take Dynamics. In Thermodynamicsand Engineering Statistics, students did their homework assignments on Blackboard, whilestudents used Mastering Engineering for
