component to data science is extracting the data in various ways. A very common method of collecting this data is through web-scraping various web pages. This workshop introduced students to the concept of web scraping and writing python scripts to automate this collection method. • High Performance Computing Workshop: A mechanical engineering professor at WTAMU hosted a workshop about high performance computing and the utility it has in a variety of disciplines. The students who participated had the opportunity to actually SSH into the WTAMU HPC cluster and run various distributed systems scripts. Tentative 2- Day Hackathon schedule can be found in Figure 1.

usable low word errorrates, the generated text output is an incomplete representation of a multi-party conversation; Inshort, it solves the “what” but not the “who.” This creates barriers to our ideal of an inclusive andequitable learning community. Thus students who are deaf or hard of hearing are furthermarginalized and excluded from multi-party peer discussions with non-deaf participants becauseit is hard to visually follow who is speaking. To address these communication barriers, weutilized the Human Centered Engineering Design framework to identify a set of features thatovercomes the above barriers.

, and her storymay be similar to other students who do not make it through the gauntlet of engineering, andinstead find fulfillment outside of engineering.Additionally, an extensive body of research shows that students’ personal epistemologies–howthey think about the nature of knowledge and knowing – affect how they approach learning inscience, mathematics, and engineering [14-19]. A disconnect between how students perceiveknowledge and engineering pedagogy fosters a lack of belonging in engineering. For example, inone study, “Michael,” a student who valued sense-making over memorization, felt different andisolated from his peers and community [11]. His approach to solving engineering problemsresulted in a deeper understanding, more creative

In the subsequent weeks, to ensure that students build intuition about howcobots are used in manufacturing, two practical projects were formulated with strong relevance to real-world manufacturing processes: (1) automated part assembly and (2) machine tending. i) Automated part assembly: The manufacturing process of all sorts of items/equipment involves one ormore steps of part assembly. The use of robots enables the automation of this labor-intensive, repetitive,and oftentimes, dangerous process. In this project, students were tasked to develop a LEGO vehicle (truck)assembly station (see Fig. 1). With the

Research suggests that the disproportionately lowrates may result in students disengaging with STEM careers like engineering as they progressthrough middle school and high school. Therefore, to contribute to research exploring the gapbetween exposure and enrollment in engineering programs, this work in progress paper intendsto explore the relationship between middle school students’ perceptions of engineering, theirinterests, and self-efficacy to better understand how an out-of-school engineering interventionmay influence their engineering career aspirations.This paper uses a concurrent mixed-method, case-study approach, to analyze participants’ surveyand interview data to

professional expectations of engineering as a career and discipline [9], [10]. Someprograms also use these courses to foster engineering ethics, writing and communication skills,teamwork competencies, and to develop community and engineering identity within students toaid in retention of engineering students [11], [12]. In other words, first-year engineering designstudents are typically gaining other competencies beside academic objectives (the what part ofengineering) in addition to learning how competencies are enacted within the engineeringdiscipline.While all engineering programs may structure their first year and design experiences differently[11], engineering education and design literature concurs that the emphasis on authentic andexperiential

Basic technical skills covered include math,mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering technology. The rationale for this course is toexpose students to these subjects and topics before they enroll in core engineering technologycourses such as applied statics.Assessment of learning:While the author plans to conduct this

alsoeducated about careers that require this skill set and were introduced to a programminglanguage called “Processing”. We observed that students showed increased enthusiasmtowards CS. In addition, we noticed that the group activity component of the classesencouraged sociability and idea synthesis among peers. This CS community outreachprogram motivated us to extend the effort to teach science concepts using the Processinglanguage. This may potentially promote sociability, creativity, and empowerment inSTEM among middle school students. Specifically, we plan to use the Processingprogramming language to facilitate learning of biological and chemical concepts, sincesuch concepts can be difficult for students to visualize from a textbook.

well as the type of math coursestaken during the student’s first year. Chen [5] discovered that taking a lighter course load withless challenging math courses while having a poor performance in those courses lead to ahigh chance of switching out of STEM. Another noteworthy result from this study: All other factors being equal, bachelor’s degree STEM entrants who first attended public 4-year institutions had a higher probability of leaving STEM by switching majors than those who started at private nonprofit 4-year institutions. Bachelor’s degree STEM entrants who were male or who came from low-income backgrounds had a higher probability of leaving STEM by dropping out of college than their peers who were female or came from

Another soft scaffold was then given to reveal a hidden key concept for the problem: [Assuming smooth pulleys, the force in the left upper spring k1 is equal to the force in the right upper spring k2. This force equality is k1*(y1+y3) = k2*(y2-y3) and is the third needed equation.] Scaffold # 3 The instructor offered this final dose of scaffolding to help students write the
