women’s retention in engineering by shaping courses to increaseconfidence [13]. These factors may have had a positive influence on our sample population’sperceptions of expertise, where gender disparities were less apparent.Degrees of Expertise OwnershipOf the 10 participants, six expertise statements reflected both active and passive ownership ofexpertise. These statements often began with dismissal of expertise through a negative sentimenttowards a past expertise or a declaration of skills that they did not possess followed by what theyconsidered their current expertise to be. For example, one participant proclaimed, “I have less ofan expertise in some specific engineering and more of an expertise in engineering in conjunctionwith people

For example, students from bothmajors reported that they did not see the relevance and connection to their major(s) and futurecareer path. Additionally, many students reported that the course was more challenging thanother courses on end-of-course evaluations, and overall grades were often reflective of theseconcerns. DE is required for CST majors and is an elective for ET students. The ET and CSTprograms have different expected program outcomes; however, the DE course is expected toaddress the goals of each program. To accommodate

Thus, there have been many efforts to identify and understand skills andexperiences that are of value to BME recruiters. This work in progress study seeks to explorewhat recruiters in industry, healthcare, and academia are looking for in BME graduates. Thework is guided by the following research questions:What qualities, skills, and experiences are recruiters looking for in potential BME hires? Howcan they be represented on resumes of BME undergraduates?We will explore these questions by analyzing resumes designed to reflect the specific qualitiesdesired by BME

We use the D2L (Desire-to-Learn) course software for these journals, which aremade available to all the mentors and the other interns. In D2L, we have set up a discussionboard for interns and mentors, on which questions and comments can be posted.

The use of Zoom was more convenient for many of these busy professionals who didnot have to drive to campus and hence had more scheduling flexibility. It also allowed us toinvite speakers from out of state who might not have otherwise been able to meet with thestudents. While the level of student engagement and casual conversation with the industryspeakers was not the same in a virtual setting as it typically is in-person, the mere act of exposingstudents to a variety of role models and career paths is still critical, particularly when dealingwith first generation college students.

learning outcome of the students.DiscussionThe results from the undergraduate Statics and Dynamics course show that video assignmentscan facilitate peer discussion and enhance students’ understanding of a subject. In particular,video assignments in the form of group discussions allow students to explain the concepts totheir peers and receive feedback. The feedback probes their thought process and encouragesthem to rethink their reasoning and problem-solving approach. Moreover, listening to others andproviding feedback requires in-depth thinking and creates an opportunity for higher orderthinking and mastery of the material.

However, Kim [8] suggested that peer assessment provides anopportunity for learning by both the student conducting the assessment (assessor) and the studentreceiving the feedback (assessee). The act of peer assessment requires students to thinkreflectively and “use their knowledge and skills to review, clarify and correct others’ work” [8].Nicol et al. (2014) echoed this, noting that the value of peer assessment comes not only from thestudent reflecting on their own
