estimates indicating that the average age of surveyors isbetween 55 and 60 years old. In our previous work we examined surveying students tounderstand how they found out about surveying and what got them interested in this major.While this provided us with some important insights, it only reflected the opinion of studentswho already selected surveying. In Fall of 2022, we expanded our sample by surveying first-yearstudents at six Penn State campuses in order to understand their perceptions about surveying.The online survey helped students to understand the main characteristics of surveyingengineering and helped them update their self-beliefs about surveying.

that of the Elders. These are people in the community“who have acquired wisdom through life experiences, education (a process of gaining skills, knowledge, andunderstanding), and reflection (Archibald, 2008 p 37). Age is not a factor when it comes to being an Elder. The maincriteria are that an individual is respected by others in the community and has important cultural knowledge that isshared (Archibald, 2008). When conducting culturally responsive research, particularly with Indigenouscommunities, a very important beginning step is receiving permission from the community members(Masta, 2018). As such, I framed my starting conversations around the purpose of receiving permission orblessing for my research as well as engaging and building a

However, the university started believing "there is no front to an active classroom" and removed whiteboards and replaced them with glass boards in these active-learning classrooms. These boards were hard to write on and reflected the classroom lights. The boards also had limited writing space, even for short lectures. The first author moved the class to a "regular" auditorium with many more seats than students, for example, having 80 students in an auditorium that seats 140. The effectiveness of active learning did not suffer much. Leaving every other row vacant allowed the instructor and the teaching assistants to move around fully © American Society for

8-week intervention period. The survey collected their perceptions regardingan innovative teaching method used for the laboratory course. The pre-and-post comparisonallows for contrasting student opinions in three main areas: type of instruction, teachingstrategies, and student response to the instruction. The study presents some of the laboratoryactivities' outcomes and limitations. One specific activity, the capacitor discharge experiment,will be thoroughly discussed to compare the traditional physical setup with the technology-basedversion. Findings highlight the pros and cons of the teaching method used and reflect on what hasbeen learned. It also suggests potential next steps for further improvement.Keywords: Physics laboratory course

The codes offercommunity members a common way of communicating about their experiences and observationsor for examining or reflecting on their experiences [20]. In the engineering department, a codeshift was made possible through the introduction of specific language that framed neurodiversityas an asset; this change in language usage was in stark contrast to previous use of language thatreflected a framing of neurological variations as cognitive disorders.The most important example of the code used

Some of these similarities are:● Both are iterative, adaptive, and collaborative processes that help solve ill-defined and open-ended problems that are not amenable to being routinized or solved algorithmically (aka “puzzles”). The iterative and nonlinear nature of both design methodologies is reflected in the existent feedback loops. This iterative nature can also be viewed as coevolution of the problem space with the solution space. That is, as designers search for

We hypothesized that the reason was aerodynamicdrag, and then confirmed this by operating the system with a flywheel of similar mass propertiesbut a streamlined shape. Upon reflection, we realized that a key educational goal was for to elicita similar level of curiosity and for them to engage in inquisitive discovery. In winter 2023 weidentified curiosity as an explicit educational objective of the class and structured the coursematerial accordingly.

ensuring communicative effectiveness of our end product.Theoretical Framework: Figured Worlds and Narrative AgencyIn their seminal work, Holland and colleagues (1998) conceptualized the complex interactionsbetween social systems and individuals as agency and identity formation in figured worlds. Theydefine this concept as the realized capacity for an individual to purposefully and reflectively act(i.e., agency) on contexts containing “socially-produced, culturally-constructed activities” (i.e.,figured worlds, Holland et al., 1998, p. 40-41). As individuals iteratively interact with and withinthese figured worlds, they make meaning of themselves and form their identities.

Before making our own, we want to learn from previous projects what doesand does not work in existing assessment tools with a critical lens. Often, the tests currently usedin literature and the subsequent course or curriculum appear to result in score gains of studentsafter the intervention [3]. We are questioning whether this could be a result of the test notaccurately capturing the spatial visualization skills initially, whether this reflects ceiling/flooreffect in statistical data analyses, or if gains

Thus, somefamilies and parents must be made aware of STEM career opportunities. With this knowledge,parents can guide their children to enter a specific field, particularly in technology-related areas(Scheitle & Ecklund, 2017; Yerdelen et al., 2016). Also, religion and spirituality can influence anindividual’s likelihood of entering a STEM field. Religious people are more likely to bediscouraged from entering STEM careers, particularly physics- and biology-related fields(Scheitel & Ecklund, 2017).

. Since then, there have beennumerous adapted definitions proposed and used by various researchers and educators [1]. Thedefinition used in this paper was proposed by Bringle, et al. in 2006: Service learning is a credit-bearing educational experience in which students (a) participate in an organized service activity that meets identified community needs and (b) reflect on the service activity in such a way as to gain further understanding of course content, a broader appreciation of the discipline, and an enhanced sense of personal values and civic responsibilityThis definition of service learning works well for engineering classes because it explicitlydescribes the goal of students both identifying and working
