graduating out of the major did not have necessaryexperience or knowledge in robotics. Using best practices in engineering education, the course transitioned from a lecturemodel to a project-based learning model that includes three blocks over a forty-lesson semester:block 1, introductory topics; block 2, robotics design and implementation; and block 3, mazecompetition. Each laboratory includes a brief fifteen-minute introduction to a fundamentalelectrical and computer engineering concept and 3.5-hours of hands-on application. For example,after learning how the average power of a system can be controlled via pulse-width modulation,students integrate motors into the robot and connect each motor to a modern measurement tool toobserve the

approach to research on first-generation students, reflecting a focus on what thesestudents can add to engineering rather than focusing on what they lack [10]. We pose thefollowing research question: How do two first-generation students, one a first-year and one a fourth-year, describe their journeys through engineering?By comparing the perspectives of a first-year and fourth-year student, we can identifyopportunities for better supporting our first-year, first-generation students. Identifying thespecific challenges endured by both students in their first years, and the stories of how thosechallenges were navigated, allows educators to adjust existing practices to be more supportiveand inclusive of first-generation students.MethodsIn

parallel, there is a “dissatisfaction with the rate ofimplementation, adoption, and scale-up of research-based instructional strategies (RBIS)” [2, p. 221] thatis apparent in thought leaders and funding agencies. The lack of impact from RBIS driven change effortscreates a nearly circular effect - low impact suggests the need for more programs that have limited impact,which suggests the need for more programs. However, we know little about how faculty experience thesecalls for change or put them into practice. What we do know about the results of change efforts isillustrative. First, some faculty see coordinated efforts as disempowering when historically informalacademic systems are formalized [10]. Second, many, if not most, teaching changes are

Naturally, research on engineeringwriting has explored ways to provide course-level writing support for engineering students,especially for undergraduates [4].

[1], some teaching activities in the online environmenthave “the potentials to cultivate deeper learning experiences, but they can fail to do so ifactivities are not designed and implemented properly.” The rapid switch to online instruction inMarch 2020 did not allow faculty members to train, plan and reflect upon the best teachingmodes for online instruction, unless they had previously taught an online class. Therefore, aswith many other researchers, we consider the Spring semester to be an example of remotelearning rather than planned online learning [3].In October 2020, the Chronicle of Higher Education conducted a survey among faculty membersin US institutions to gain

Evaluation of Interactive Multidisciplinary Curricula in a Residential Summer ProgramAbstract Previous studies have indicated that women account for about 18% of the engineeringdegrees awarded in the United States. Consistently low populations of women in engineering areoften attributed to discrimination, the perception that engineering is a masculine domain, and alack of understanding about the roles and responsibilities of an engineer. In order to increaseparticipation of women in engineering, universities develop outreach programs designed to bettereducate students (and the public) about engineering.
