inquiry activity was done during lecture in ChE 3084, a junior-level chemical engineeringcourse. The course content is roughly 2 credit hours of separations, 1 credit hour of simulations,and 1 credit hour of mass transfer. The experiment was to measure a diffusivity, to compare it toliterature values, and to develop of list of weaknesses of the experiment.The diffusivity is a measure of how quickly a compound moves through another due to aconcentration gradient. Fickian diffusivities of alcohols in air are on the order of 1 x 10-5 m2/s atroom temperature [1]. Experimental data were analyzed with the concept of diffusion time, inwhich the time for a molecule to diffuse an average distance in one dimension is given byEquation 1 [2

Therefore, the formation of home-culture studygroups could be considered an oppositional behavior because many of the faculty do notencourage it.Another example of community conformism occurred through teaching assistants’ office hours.Students found that TAs were more approachable than professors because they were morewilling to help and were more like peers. At TA office hours, students not only received helpfrom TAs, but also found help and community among other students there who were working onthe same assignments. The final example of community conformism was Student 5’s effort torecruit more minority students to undergraduate research opportunities, thus helping them adapt.We observed one example of

these instructors as they had used the software for three years in a honorsengineering mechanics class. The goal of the game Civil-Build1 is to assist students in developing engineering intuitionof truss structure behavior when subjected to loads. The software tool is based on finite straintheory that enables the user to visualize material and geometric nonlinearities and dynamicmovement of failed/compromised structures. Users play the game by positioning bars and jointsto construct a truss structure that can support an external mass and the weight of the truss structureitself. The structure the player builds must consist of joints and bars, where the bars areconnected via the joints. Players are rewarded with nut(s) and points based on

If we were engineering professors in year 1960’s, we would include a class to teach the studentsusing a slider ruler to calculate the solutions of engineering problems. If we were engineeringprofessors in year 1980, we would ask the students solving engineering problems with Fortran on amainframe computer. If we were engineering professors in year 2000, we would ask the studentssolving engineering problems on a personal computer.We are now in year 2022, the main computing tool is still personal computer.

Sustaining program participation by URM graduate students in STEM can bechallenging due to the demands on the student’s time for coursework and research. The Covid-19 pandemic also raised the barriers to recruit students and sustain engagement. Many of ourGREATS graduate students are first generation in STEM or come from lower socioeconomicstatus with limited financial resources. Therefore, we originally built in several incentives to recruitstudents and help promote their participation through the duration of this grant. The first incentiveis the opportunity to participate in the program

: Diagnosed with ADHD I have ADHD I find that this help me focus. It is an alternative to leg bouncing. I like the spinning chair.Keeping this in mind, it makes this device’s implication in schools and offices more useful, as people withissues focusing can use their chairs as a way to help them. This produces more energy. It does notnecessarily affect our product as a whole, however we believe it is notable enough to include. Reflectingon the results of our final design, we conclude that it would be an advantageous way to produce renewableenergy.References [1] S. Tyaglov, A. Sheveleva, T.

Instructor 3’s original CBG methodology: • Most students enjoyed the flexibility of CBG where they could move at their own pace and had a chance to recover from failures. • Infinite resubmissions increased the instructor's burden because the instructor needed to grade many assignments and had to give feedback in all cases. • Flexible deadlines could hurt students who have poor time management and increase the instructor burden (grading and feedback).

a growing number of STEM roles.Marginalized populations are disproportionately absent from these fields, which NationalScience Foundation (NSF) has sought to address through the funding of programs aimed atimproving STEM students’ success [1]-[2]. Thus, Baylor University created the Engineering andComputer Science (ECS) Scholars Program—a NSF-funded program to support the success ofhigh achieving, low income (HALI) STEM students. Because student success literatureoverwhelmingly evidences the positive relationship between involvement and success [3]-[4],this study explored how HALI STEM students in the ECS Scholars Program perceive andexperience involvement and success as related to their most salient identities.Guiding Research Question(s

Later wewill focus on comparing the differences and common grounds between them in the practicalterm.Literature ReviewSystems The first term that we encounter in our discussion is the term system. Etymologically,the term derives from the Greek word s´ust¯ema and carries the meaning of “being put together”. Itcan be loosely considered as an organized collection of parts and, as an analytical term, suggeststhat a system does not exist in the sense of an individual physical object but rather the term couldbe regarded as artificially made up to establish order with its use (although such a
