different types of ADHDexperiences.8. Future Work and LimitationsA major limitation to this work was the small sample size used to generate an LDA model as anLDA model is more accurate with more data for training. While the ideal sample size for LDAmodeling can vary, previous literature suggest using a sample size of at least fifty withpreference for larger sample sizes for more accurate and stable results [73], [74]. We plan toaddress this limitation in our future work by using APIs to data mine social media platforms. Bydata mining social media posts, we will be able to gather large amounts of data to train our LDAmodel for more accuracy. Further, the LDA method alone analyzes words and does not considercontext or syntax of those words (e.g., the

As of the date of this study, two interviews in the series of planned interviews had beencompleted per student. The first interview occurred in the spring semester of students' firstcollege year (spring 2023) and was designed to understand students' perceptions of themselves asengineers, how they experienced the classroom and other spaces on campus, and theirattributions about their self-efficacy for student success. The second interview occurred in thefall semester of the second college year (fall 2023) and was designed to understand students'experiences as they transitioned into their majors, and made sense of

She also comments on how long ‘active learning’ hasbeen part of engineering education transformation, but questions how pervasive or wellimplemented such approaches are on a large scale. Students are not responsive to ‘old’methods. We must learn how to teach using the tools and methods we are challenging students tolearn. She uses the VLOOKUP function in Excel as an example.

Through several case studies, Ramirez traces the activismby various communities to then detail the development of environmental policies that have comeafter NEPA. Ultimately, the Vox article discusses the limits of NEPA as it does not addressdisparate harm to disadvantaged communities. Even if developers put together an environmentalimpact

For instance, they found that “for every one-unit increase instudents’ self-efficacy, they were over eight times more likely to plan to enroll in a master’sprogram and 13 times more likely to plan to enroll in a Ph.D. program relative to not attendinggraduate school” [8, p. 154].Therefore, the body of literature on women in graduate degrees in engineering remains extremelylimited, especially disaggregated on each graduate degree (MSc, MEng, or Ph.D.) or engineeringsubfields.

There were plans to have options for both python and spreadsheet plotting, but at highschool PD events teachers explained that they, as well as the students, need more practice andexperience in both software.

This recognition often occurred throughobserving their children’s frustration or failure and reflecting on their approach oracknowledgement of it. Children’s frustration was often readily perceived by parents andsubsequently understood or supported as a natural or even beneficial component to learning. Inacknowledging their children’s frustrations and moments when things did not go according tooriginal plans (i.e., failures), many parents chose to model tactics for working through it orsuggested ways that children might move beyond frustration.One

And he speaks with admiration of his adoptedsister and fiancée Elizabeth, who “veiled her grief” and “forgot even her own regret in herendeavours to make us forget” [5].

they become focused on anarrow set of possible solutions that does not lead to a workable outcome. A similar situationarises when teams do not put sufficient thought and effort into creating design representations(see below) which results in poor project organization and planning. Failing to reassign teammembers to the most pressing tasks and jumping too early into project implementation is anotherway teams become overly focused on unproductive pathways, which also can lead to stuckness.Stuckness has been a perennial issue in the capstone course described here, leading to non-optimal project outcomes in many cases. Stuckness not only affects projects, but individualstudents as well. Students’ mental health can be negatively affected by the
