developing feedback literacy. The framework also draws from Nicol and Macfarlane-Dick's [20] principles of good feedback practice, emphasizing the role of peer and self-assessment in feedback processes. In the context of Scrum, this dimension reflects the framework's collaborative nature, where feedback sources are not limited to the traditional instructor-student dynamic but include peers and self-reflection [22]. 2. Feedback Timing: Timeliness in feedback is highlighted by Hattie and Timperley's [19] model of effective feedback, which emphasizes the importance of immediate feedback in learning processes. This aspect is mirrored in the Scrum methodology, where regular sprint reviews and retrospectives [23] provide

Toward Awareness and Self-Reflection – It is important for faculty to recognize that the journey toward equity and inclusion in classrooms is not instantaneous. It requires that we be aware of any constraints that limit our ability to practice these inclusive principles and to reflect on how we can improve the overall learning experience for ALL students. a. Seed 1: Ground yourself by engaging with Project Implicit to better understand your own potential implicit biases b. Seed 2: Throughout the semester, reflect on strategies to improve equity and inclusion in the classroom c. Seed 3: Take time to reflect on potential triggers you may encounter in the classroom and

Newly enrolled doctoral candidates were asked to explain ‘why a PhD’ usingLEGO® pieces to help them express beyond words, with constructions, through similes andmetaphors. The use of LEGO® was intentional for two reasons: it gave them a visual andkinesthetic outlet for enhancing and deepening their reflections and message; and it put themat ease, in ‘play mode’, which allowed them to access aspects of their psyche not typicallyexploited in technical conversations. They constructed stories, created characters, andproduced metaphors to channel and express what their motivations, drives and purpose were.The most common types of metaphors used were visual, ontological and spatially related.Their

Additionally, one graduate student,not responsible for an example video, also performed an assessment of the videos. Finally, thestudents were required to provide guided self-reflections on their communication skills after theyhad completed their videos and performed and received peer reviews. It has been wellestablished that having students reflect on their own learning can enhance the learning process[6]. Self-reflection questions were chosen to encourage students to be critically reflective of theirown performance and consider how to improve their performance for future video submissions.Here are the

Undergraduate engineering students complete fiveco-op rotations between their sophomore and senior years, accumulating close to 20 months ofprofessional work experience in their field of study. Although instructors often relate conceptspresented in the classroom to students’ cooperative education, there is a need for teachingmethodologies to better integrate every student’s own real-world experience into engineeringclassrooms. Our hypothesis is that reflecting on and disseminating knowledge and experiencethat students gain through professional practice, in the context of a specific course in thecurriculum, can be a valuable resource for classroom instruction.

This is relevant to our subsequent and current studies since successful intentionalchanges were entirely dependent upon the students’ learning and demonstrating increasingcontrol over their behaviors, and selecting desirable and achievable goals. Selecting such goalsand identifying desirable behaviors, according to Baltes,17 reduces the possibility of unsuccessfulresults and increases the likelihood of developing methods that lead to desired outcomes.According to Brandtstädter,12 reflective thought and
