. Preliminary results indicate that the addition of formative assessments havehelped students better communicate the problem and solution to a wider audience in their projectdeliverables. A revised instructional model is presented, along with future evaluation plans.IntroductionAs engineering students move into the workplace, their success depends on their technical skillsand ability to communicate. Studies have shown that based on their position within anorganization, engineers may spend up to fifty percent of their time writing [1]. While writing hasbeen presumed to be part of an engineer’s job, it has not always been considered a centralcomponent of the engineering profession [2], [3]. The role of writing in engineering has inspiredseveral studies

on Formative Assessments in anIntroduction Programming CourseAbstractFor some faculty, it is an ongoing challenge to design assignments and course policies thatmotivate students to focus on the learning that can come from overcoming challenges. For manystudents, when the stakes are too high or their time is too strained, productive activities arebypassed for strategies that more quickly get to an answer without necessarily exercising criticalthinking skills. A variety of approaches have been taken to encourage students to productivelystruggle on formative assessments and then reflect on their results to further enhance learning [1],[2], [3]. These strategies often come with a tradeoff.The purpose of this work is to share additional

Activities for developing students'sense of purpose may become relevant, especially in the context of recent advances inArtificial Intelligence (AI), which, some argue, may lead to a decreased sense of purpose. Inthis work-in-progress paper we describe ongoing research whose objective is to (1)understand how to develop a greater sense of purpose in students, exploring its relation toself-regulation and to (2) understand the relation between students' sense of purpose and theiracademic and personal motivations. Specifically we describe a multiple methods study thatwe carried out on an introductory AI course at a highly selective engineering school in LatinAmerica in which 144 students participated.

, 2024 WIP: Exploring the Impact of Partner Assignment on Students’ Decision Making in Collaborative Design ProjectsIntroductionTeam formation strategies are an important element of engineering task design for authentic,collaborative projects. Many engineering educators employ software such as CATME [1] toregulate team formation. These programs, which typically focus on demographics and skill levelswith the goal of creating productive teams, tend to work at the individual project level and maynot necessarily account for students’ participation in a series of multiple projects. Indeed,engaging a classroom community in a series of projects presents the opportunity to strategicallypair students such that their connections with

Theytraditionally take their programming course in the computer science department, a course thatgenerally delivers to a mixed audience of multiple majors and relies on generic problems for theapplication of coding skills.Research suggests that motivation plays a key role in student success in programming courses[4], [5]. Interest in the content and activities, and relevance or usefulness, i.e. the content isuseful for students’ short or long term goals, are among the factors that contribute to academicmotivation [6], [7].

Though‘neurodivergent’ is intentionally not a diagnostic term, diagnoses (whether formal or self-) canstill play an important role in neurodivergent individuals’ paths to finding neurodivergentcommunity [5], yet barriers to diagnosis (especially formal) are numerous (e.g. [31]).Undiagnosed neurodivergent people often experience social isolation without understanding why[4]. Even those with a diagnosis (or multiple) can still face isolation, as diagnoses are notroadmaps to the community, nor instructions on how to build one.

Drawing on currenteducation scholarship, creating engaging and supportive learning environments in which studentsfeel they belong, helps students’ transition, success, and well-being [1].

This risk may be intensified by a technology that so easily obfuscates thelabor involved in writing.1 While I refer to the concept of engineering “disciplines,” I am also aware of the contingent and dialogical nature ofthis intellectual space as one that is in flux through the dialogical relationships between its practitioners over time.See Prior and Hengst (2010) for a full discussion of disciplinarity as a dialogic and contingent activity that escapesneo-Platonic concepts of the ideal. Considering these tensions that constitute a discipline may well become salient asGenAI pushes the boundaries of convention in education and
