As part of these questions, we inquiredabout the extent to which students were experiencing trauma during the time in graduate schooland the actions taken by the GPD when a student was experiencing trauma. The interview alsoincluded questions about the role of the department and institution in handling traumatic events.All the interview audio was transcribed by Rev.com for analysis purposes.Preliminary Data AnalysisLeveraging trauma-informed frameworks of care and systems analysis techniques, the dataanalysis has focused on the first two research questions noted in the Project Overview section.To this end, the initial data analysis process involved examining

Overall, the responsefrom the IAC members who participated was quite enthusiastic, and most have committed torepeating the process again.The technique is being repeated with the next set of students who started one term later. This setis a much smaller set of students, but again can help to refine the process.Going forward, the intent is to roll the assessment out to all senior design teams and then lookcloser at how this approach impacts the validity of the internal assessment. There is alsoconsideration of having students complete a follow-up reflection on the IAC feedback.References[1] M. El-Sayed and J. El-Sayed

The NGSS shifted science instruction to incorporate cross-cutting (utilizing common themes among STEM disciplines) engineering standards and expandon computational thinking skills [2]. However, as technology and computing have advanced, theNGSS do not reflect the modern skills needed for computing to

using worksheets and students were required to write theirwork into a bound notebook (3-ring binder, science notebook, or spiral bound). This handwrittenhomework approach was used to develop student’s ability to express their work clearly. Duringeach test, the notebooks were collected and scored. The instructor gave feedback on errors thatwere noticed and gave a score that reflected the student’s ability to communicate and execute thematerial. The scores did not impact the student’s course grade; however, if a student earned apassing score on all the notebook checks, then the final’s scaled percentage was able to replacethe lowest exam grade.Second Iteration (Winter 2022-2023)In the second quarter, two sections consisting of 62 students were

This approach is reflected in the selection of lab topics which are thenfollowed by applications, such as using a timer IC NE555 and linear voltage regulator LM317.While these applications may look intimidating at first glance, they require only a handful ofcomponents. The LM317 lab illustrates the application of voltage division and Kirchoff’s laws,and results in a useful circuit. Similarly, the application of NE555 illustrates a practical designthat utilizes R-C charging and voltage division

This dimension comprises five items that capturestudents’ confidence in their understanding of engineering in class and out of class, that they cando well on exams, that they understand concepts in engineering, and that others ask them forhelp.
