canoe were not large enough to result in the failure of thecanoe. Based on FEA analysis the concrete canoe was successfully constructed. 1IntroductionConcrete is not a common material to construct a canoe. In the 1960’s, some civilengineering college students decided to build a canoe using reinforced concrete. Thishowever was not an innovative idea. In 1848, Joseph Louis Labot of France built the firstconcrete dingy. The first ocean-going concrete ship was an 84-foot long boat constructedin Norway and launched in 1917. Concrete boats were built during WWII and yachts arestill being manufactured from concrete in several countries. In 1970, ACI President

Finally, an associate professor in a different department alsoreported a strong amount of support from both male and female colleagues at ResearchUniversity I. Yet, she described a “systemic bias” during her graduate and postdoctoral careerthat caused some of her female peers to decide not to seek a faculty position. She recalled, “I hada lot of friends who wanted to be faculty and they just got tired. They got tired of constantlyfighting.” At Research University III, women faculty
of astudent’s perceived inclusiveness within an academic unit, provides empirical evidence of theunwelcoming culture of engineering graduate education. According to Gardner et al. [3],engineering graduate students reported a relatively lower sense of belonging within theiracademic department compared to students in other disciplines. O’Meara et al.’s [4] research onSTEM students’ sense of belonging echoed this claim, highlighting that there are fewerfacilitators (e.g., a critical mass of women, micro affirmations) for creating an inclusiveenvironment in STEM graduate programs compared to those in non-STEM disciplines. Theseauthors collectively emphasized the need for investigating engineering graduate studentexperience and integration

A second one-credit course is taken in the spring semester of the junior year when studentsdo a deeper dive into the relevant literature, develop a detailed plan for executing the projectduring their senior year, and prepare a poster on their project that is presented at a symposium.Two faculty members co-taught this course, with the symposium poster and written proposalcounting for 50 percent of their grade. This grade is given by the faculty advisor(s) who havesigned the MOU with students. In the senior year
problems can help tosupport students’ understanding of science, math, and engineering simultaneously. Even though mathematical modeling is included in K-12 mathematics educationalstandards (i.e., Common Core State Standards for Mathematics [19]), teachers struggle withintegrating mathematics content into engineering problems[14], [15]. As an example, the middleschool teachers in Lesseig et al.’s [15] multi-year university and school district partnership useda professional development model to create Science, Engineering, and Mathematics DesignChallenges. The mathematics and science teachers perceived the challenges aligned withmathematics problem-solving skills and specific engineering practice. The major problem themathematics teachers

the profession [11], ABET has included mandatoryevaluation through Criterion 3’s Outcome 6 [12]: ability to develop and conduct appropriateexperimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions. Outcome6 consists of four elements [13]: designing an experiment, conducting an experiment, analyzing data, andinterpreting data. According to Abdel-Magid [14], the last three elements can easily be addressed in atypical engineering laboratory course; however, the first element of “designing an experiment” is ratherdifficult to address in an undergraduate course. Some educators argue that it is better to have students runfewer but more open-ended experiments than many well-prescribed and guided experiments [13-15

The Planning dimension was applied to comments that indicatedgoal setting, actions planned to improve on their learning, and rationales for the selection ofaction(s) to achieve the goal. Within a dimension, levels were applied to indicated students'engagement in thinking, from a surface level (e.g., awareness) to a deep level (e.g., sense-making).Table 2.

Experiences in World War IIGiven that World War II ended only a few years before the Directory was compiled, it is notsurprising that many engineering library staff were veterans or had worked in positions thatsupported the war effort. Although men were more likely to serve in the armed forces, womenalso served in various roles.U.S. Army veterans included Harry C. Bauer, Director of Libraries at the University ofWashington from 1947-59. Bauer served from 1942-45 as a combat intelligence officer in theU.S. Army Air Forces and was awarded a Bronze Star, Purple Heart, and Air Medal. HowardHovelstad, Acting Director of Libraries at the University of Maryland, served from 1943-46.John S. Mehler, Librarian, University of Alaska served from 1941-46. Charles

I have always been interested in learning,teaching, and mentoring. I had the opportunity to engage with this process of becoming aprofessor in a much more structured, scaffolded, and safely strategic environment than iscommon for engineering faculty. I have a master's in chemical engineering; thus, I feel veryconfident in my engineering identity, ability to comprehend and communicate the material, andmy familiarity with both the difficulty of the learning process and the struggles of being a studentthrough an engineering program. I was co-teaching with my master’s advisor, who also
objectives that can be phrased as‘by the end of this course; students will be able to ….’ This will help simplify decisions for theentire semester, from what activities to do during class and what homework to assign to whatkind of questions you put on your assessments, leading to a much more impactful experience foryour students [12].Provide this list of objectives in an easily accessible place for your students (such as on thecourse management system). Clearly convey to your students at the start of the course andthroughout the semester that these objectives are driving all your course decisions. Highlight atthe start of each unit, each week, or even each class which objective(s) are to be supported by theactivities and homework problems. And
