elements of teamwork include understanding team stages, recognizingmembers' strengths and weaknesses, fostering mutual trust, and managing roles and expectationsthrough tools like team charters. To address the gap in teamwork skill development, theUNdergraduates Improving TEamwork Skills (UNITES) project was launched to integrate verticallyaligned lecture modules into the engineering curriculum. The foundational module initially consistedof slide-based content focused on characteristics of successful teams, team dynamics, andexpectation management. However, instructor feedback revealed challenges such as unfamiliaritywith concepts, lack of student engagement, and excessive time required to cover materials duringlectures. The module was improved to

multidisciplinary approach aligns well with STEM problem solving. Despite its advantages, implementing education, where hands-on learning is a critical PBL poses challenges. Resource demands, assessment component in fostering engagement and improving complexities, and the need for faculty training can hinder retention [4]. An illustrative example comes from a its adoption. Successful integration requires institutional dynamics course where students struggled with pulley commitment, collaboration with industry, and robust systems. Initially, the concept remained abstract despite evaluation models. Blended learning and online resources have shown promise in expanding PBL’s reach

I'm using air quotes, information and knowledge [you] are supposed to have coming into these spaces that the vast majority of people don't. But if they learn it through mentors and champions in their role, people that take a liking to them and share the secret handbook with them as they go, right? And so for me, that was dumb. And so part of what became sort of like my North Star is if there's ever an opportunity for me to take the veil off of the system or share the handbook.

While the influence of language on educationalexperiences has been the subject of several scholarly papers, no research have looked explicitlyat language use patterns in the field of engineering education or the possible negative effects ofbiased language.In light of this, the present study integrates two conceptual frameworks: implicit bias theory andacademic literacy theory. This approach allows for a detailed investigation into biased languageuse trends within engineering education research, as well as an understanding of how thesetrends diverge from the field’s goals of diversity and inclusion.

The reform was driven by professional satisfaction, andwillingness to take risks and these factors empowered these teachers to pursue and sustain theefforts of reforms (Balgopal, 2020). However, the extent to which this influence appears varies because of the demographiccharacteristics of study participants and the structure of the education sector in the country.

Instructors are concerned with online testing due to the tendency that students cheat3or maybe tempted to cheat where possible, and when they are comfortable to do so4. Chegg5, AI6,Course Hero7 or any other sources could be hubs where students may refuge to during an onlineexamination, despite the remote proctoring software used. Apart from grade inflation, cheating canalso jeopardize the examination integrity, and the Engineering program of the educationinstitution8. Another challenge that instructors face is in preparing large pools of questions withthe right difficulty levels distributed equally for each student in each test8. The
