our common learning time.RESEARCH METHOD6Cultivating “global competency” in a divided worldThe data used for this study was obtained from a classroom fieldwork that took place fromAugust 2022 to February 2023. The study utilized a variety of methods to gather data. First,the instructors were asked to write reflective notes about their teaching experiences, whichwere used as autoethnographic accounts for analysis. Second, a research assistant attendedweekly instructor meetings and in-person classes at NYCU to observe the classroomdynamics between the instructors and the students. We are thus able to track how this courseevolved during the semester. Third, the research assistant conducted qualitative interviewswith the students after the

Peer-reviewed research on thistopic can be summarized into categories of innovation and specialized project development -including industry involvement (Goldberg, Cariapa, Corliss, et. al., 2014); professionalpreparation, and attribute/competency development (Hotaling, Fasse, Bost, et. al., 2012); andcapstone best-practices, pedagogy and assessment approaches (Newell, Doty, & Klein, 1990;Behdinan, Pop-Iliev, & Foster, 2014).

Several themes were apparent in the evaluation including anappreciation for learning how grade-level science themes can provide meaningful context formathematics instruction and how peer-observation and mentoring opportunities are imperativefor teachers of all levels of experience. Participating teachers had significant gains in bothleadership assessments (total gain of 18.8%, p<0.05) and Algebra content post-tests (gain of13%, p<0.05) using the Diagnostic Mathematics Assessments for Middle School Teachers(DTAMS).

Page 26.1066.5importance of reflection in courses is demonstrated in Wong et al. who suggested that studentwriting can be used as evidence of reflective thinking and learning.14As previously stated, there are several ways to engage in critical reflection. Kavanagh listed endof course meta-learning, portfolio reflections, peer assisted learning sessions in their engineeringcourse,2 and as seen in O’Moore and Baldock,19 they discussed online reflections, and teamreflections. Each technique has strengths and weaknesses, but they provide a different approachto understanding of learning outcomes and experiences. Journal writing has also been seen in theliterature,13, 14, 17 and in these instances, reflection can occur in the journal entries and

Alexander Astin’s research found that the quality and the quantity of studentsinteractions with peers and faculty were important factors in developing student engagement inthe life of the institution3.Lenning and Ebbers4 (1999) wrote that Alexander Astin and Vincent Tinto models showed theimportance of “community” learning and involvement among students and faculty. The “involvement” model (Astin) and the “student departure” model (Tinto) provide theoretical and conceptual reasons why student learning communities should impact college students positively, and much research supports both models. The models suggest that learning

The Access Network is a collection of programs (sites) thatare situated in U.S. universities that work towards a more equitable, diverse, inclusive, andaccessible version of the STEM community (Quan 2019). Access prioritizes student leaders, bothat the network-level and in their local sites, by empowering them to take the lead on actions andby providing support for this work. Access sites engage in activities that build inclusive learningcommunities, provide guidance through peer mentorship, and support growth in students’leadership around social justice.One major function of the Access Network is to connect students across these
