In implementing the comic, effort has occasionally been necessary to overcome some instructors’perception of comics as being ‘childish’, as directly quoted from another instructor; these instructorsmost commonly share traits of being older and already having taught throughout a long career. Whensharing the potential use of the comics at conferences and with some faculty directly, a few olderinstructors have directly challenged the potential of comics as a teaching tool, specifically citing theirage and experience and thus reluctance to trying something that was markedly different.

Through a series of ideation exercises anddiscussions, the group examined the challenges student veterans traditionally face, on-goingsupport initiatives at their home institutions, and recommended actions for ASEE to pursue in theyears ahead. The topics discussed during the panel are related to previous research about thechallenges faced by veteran students beyond ETETE career paths.

Due to its importance, 32 states have made it a requirement for high schoolgraduation 1 ; the remaining states define the amount of math credits required to graduate, but donot specify which courses must be taken. Despite its importance and requirement by most states,students are not excelling in this area.

InDesign Thinking, one key feature is the emphasis on user engagement and developing a deepunderstanding of a user’s needs, environment, and assets [7]. Educators, as educational designers, shouldfirst seek to understand the unique characteristics of the students in their programs. This process ofdeveloping a deeper understanding of one’s students can result in educational experiences that supportstudent learning by meeting students where they are [8] and connecting to themes, ideas, and topics thatare relevant to the student and their desired career trajectory [9].While the

For example, crafting anew exam during most weeks requires the instructor to invest a significant amount of time andenergy throughout the semester.
