thesetechnologies with hands-on exercises.2.4.3 Service LayerThe service layer of the IoT stack can be categorized as using a cloud service to store, compute, for-ward, or visualize data. In this course, students were introduced to essential software engineeringconcepts related to system design. Although the class projects would not need to scale to service100,000 users, the knowledge of how engineers plan for and accommodate applications at scalehelps promote good engineering practices. Oftentimes, IoT classes focus on the cloud to store,forward, or display data only. In future sections of this paper, we mention assignments leveragingthe Arduino cloud for an alarm system (Figure 4), a self-hosted NodeJS server interacting withFirebase for a real-time

In the context of studyabroad programs, this can help students to actively plan their cultural engagements, monitor theirinteractions and emotional responses [25], and evaluate the effectiveness of their new interactionin navigating cultural challenges and adjusting as needed in the host country.The interplay between metacognitive knowledge and regulation is crucial. As Veenman et al.[26] argue, effective learning requires both the awareness of one’s cognitive processes(knowledge) and the ability to control and adjust these processes (regulation). Therefore,combining metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive regulation forms an effective frameworkfor understanding how students develop intercultural competence. Metacognitive

Moreover, the lack of visible female role modelsexacerbates this issue; without relatable figures, many students struggle to envision asuccessful future in the field. For example, a study commissioned by McLaren Automotiveand Plan International found that 61% of schoolgirls desire more female role models inengineering to inspire their pursuit of STEM careers [17]. Additionally, research indicatesthat women engineers and engineers of color continue to face pervasive biases in hiring, pay,promotions, and evaluations [18]. Enhancing female

Initially wary of regulationsimposed and enforced by the State, students quickly learned from the mothers that the State ismostly absent from their lives, how they had to secure, treat, and reuse water, all on their ownaccord, and where and how engineering could make the processes easier.
