graduated from Calvin College in the Spring of 2015 with a B.S.E. concentrating in Mechanical Engineering. Experiences during his undergraduate years included a semester in Spain, taking classes at the Universidad de Oviedo and the Escuela Polit´ecnica de Ingenieria de Gij´on, as well as multiple internships in Manufacturing and Quality Engineering. His current work primarily investigates the effects of select emergent pedagogies upon student and instructor performance and experience at the collegiate level. Other interests include engineering ethics, engineering philosophy, and the intersecting concerns of engineering industry and higher academia.Nimit Patel, National Science Foundation Research Assistant, Discover

ofstudent responses and the ethical debate of how we, as researchers, were to react to theirresponses, we grouped individual reactions to stressors items into their factor components ofphysiological, emotional, and behavioral, transforming them into an individual item each. Wealso added questions centered on personal, family, peer, and institutional (university) supportbecause we posit that these types of support may mitigate negative affects due to stress.Gratitude (6 Items). The gratitude construct is a six-item single factor subscale adopted from theCollege Student Subjective Wellbeing Questionnaire (CSSWQ) [39]. We chose to only includethe gratitude subscale due to its relatively short length, validity evidence, and lack of overlapwith other

their ability to concretelyevaluate student growth ​[12], [13], [33]​. Direct assessments are complicated by three considerations: validity, reliability, andethical limitations on truly scientific study design. Validity asks: does the assessment measurewhat it is supposed to measure? Reliability asks: can writing be consistently and quantitativelyevaluated by different evaluators? Finally, ethics forbid writing centers from executing theclassic “treatment/no treatment” experimental design: true negative controls would requiredenial of writing center access to students who want it. Due to these three constraints, “thetypical evaluation of writing programs...usually fails to obtain statistically significant results” ​[34]​.For this reason

. While studies vary in how theydefine “broader context,” they consistently emphasize that engineers should look beyondtechnical functionality to consider political, environmental, and cultural contexts that couldimpact or be impacted by a project. For example, Mazzurco and Daniel [23] analyzed 26engineering students and 16 engineering practitioners’ responses to a design task. They foundthat students and practitioners were both able to provide high-quality considerations related totechnology, but students struggled with considerations related to stakeholders and local norms,laws and ethics, and other socio-material contexts. A “culture of disengagement” in engineeringeducation may also lead students to view broader context as irrelevant to

Her research centers on affect theory and its application to technical communication, specifically information design. Jill studies how to enhance the effectiveness of pedagogical documents by incorporating principles from affect theory. Through her work, she aims to empower students, fostering an environment where they actively shape their communication interactions, including teamwork and ethical discussions. By integrating these principles, she goes beyond traditional methods, ensuring that students not only learn but also take an active role in shaping their communication experiences.Dr. Christie Stewart, Georgia

This will support studentdesign decisions based upon the affect on a building’s lighting, heating, cooling performance,and the comfort of future occupants. In this setting, for example, the glazing of a façadebecomes less about referential stylistic applications and more about whether the window patternprovides the defined daylight illumination levels while avoiding thermal penalties. Aestheticsmust play a central role in creating vitality between people and the built environment, but in theproposed curriculum it will be founded upon an ethic that design must also be grounded inphysics and energy

The course included a good blend of traditional andmodern experiments and lecture topics on lab safety, writing skills, professionalism and ethics,and a token discussion of statistics and experimental design.
