While thisremained an important objective during our HyFlex semester, adding some assignment structureallowed this to easily transition to an asynchronous lab activity. Student parings were created inthe learning management system, Canvas, and they used a Google Sheets spreadsheet to self-assign the regulation they would like to research. Instead of in-class exploration, students weregiven one week to work with their partner(s) to create their slides (again, in a collaborative classGoogle document) and submit a recorded video of their brief presentation. Videos weresubmitted to a class discussion board, created in Canvas. The second part of the Policies andRegulations activity allowed students

Hahn Chemical Engineering Department Texas A&M University AbstractBiotechnology concepts will be a key skill set for future chemical engineers. However, whenbiological concepts are conveyed to chemical engineering students in a traditional manner, thestudents often end up lacking the ability to translate these ideas to engineering applications. Thisdiscrepancy arises in part from the different way in which engineering

for Engineering Education, 2021Seeing the invisible: The year this white woman spent learning at an HSIIntroductionI have spent over 40 years in engineering. When I first attended the university to learnengineering, I was full of the messages of the 1970’s: Women can do anything men can do(better), I can have it all, the doors to access professional success are wide open. However, littledid I know that while this may be true, the cost to anyone not a tall white male from a privilegedbackground was great. It took me years to interpret what I experienced through the lens of thewhite patriarchy, but for the last 20 years, I have studied and reflected on how we in Engineeringand Education have participated in the inequities we see all around us

For example, student 11’s final six measurements were clicking back andforth between the two breadboard rows on either side of the loose feedback wire. This makes sense,since from the picture presented, the circuit is wired correctly, and the voltage difference betweenthese points is surprising. Many feedback measurements strongly indicate that the student noticedsomething was wrong in this region, but it is not sufficient to indicate that they understood the rootcause of the issue: 5 students measured the feedback loop at least 4 times without writing thecorrect cause in the follow-up questions.

Would children learn?What can we do to mitigate not only the fear of failure but also lack of success? In Florida, Blackstudents were not returning to school.
