nationally with an award for excellence in promoting professionalism, ethics, and licensure in the curriculum; • Our program leading to the Bachelor of Arts in Engineering Studies has, since 1970, prepared its graduates to be “technological integrators;” many work as engineers, and many others work in public policy, business, education, medicine, and law. Required coursework includes some fundamental engineering courses, some translational courses in engineering economics and engineering policy, and a sequence of courses in engineering studies – typically seminar-style, discussion- and writing-intensive courses that ask students to consider the history of technology, interrogate the

Their studentshave opportunities for campus-wide scavenger hunts as well as in-building College ofEngineering scavenger hunts. The latter provide an opportunity for new students to feel part oftheir new environment, overcome isolation, and begin interacting with peers and faculty.Grey et al [2] describe the development and implementation of a scavenger hunt for First YearEngineering Orientation.

During the second week of classes, the students took a tour of the Engineering Design Building, including the Maker Space. Students talked with the maker space supervisor to discuss how they could use the maker space to build their projects. • A module on the engineering design process. Before the students were given their project definition, students spent two classes learning about the engineering design process (research, ideation, design selection, prototyping, testing, iteration) to understand how they should approach the design project. • A module on technical writing

widespread uptake of this intervention effort with faculty to promoteinstitutional transformation.Despite decades of explicit effort by institutions and faculty to provide Black, Latinx, andIndigenous (BLI) students in STEM with equitable access to educational opportunities andsuccess, considerable gaps in achievement remain [2], [3]. Black and Latinx students have beenshown to have higher interest than their White peers in STEM majors, including in engineering[4]–[6], yet despite this strong interest, they are less likely than their White peers to enroll or persistin the degree path. One factor that has been shown to help lessen this gap in student representationis positive interaction with faculty [7]–[10]. Positive faculty interaction promotes

Team formation is a complex task that has been extensivelystudied in psychology [4], management [5], and related fields [6]. In these studies, severalcharacteristics including prior knowledge, student’s skills, motivation, competence, homophily[4], diversity, familiarity with other students, personality, and scheduling, have been suggested tosignificantly influence the effectiveness of the team

Returning to Greeno and Collins’ work, they write that a preponderance of studies ineducational psychology show that students’ ability to solve problems and learn new conceptsdepended heavily on what students already knew.

At the same time, they are also curious about theworld around them and need time to explore safely. Another salient feature of the middle schoollearner is their sense of wonder about the changes they see in themselves and in their peer group.They depend on important adults in their lives and good role models to emulate.
