All course materials areavailable through the Canvas learning management system (LMS) at no cost.During the Summer of 2020, members in the CIT-E CoP began exploring the question “whatimpact has CIT-E had?” Intentional evaluation at our workshops had demonstrated that theworkshops were effective in meeting their outcomes, including building a sense of communityand helping attendees learn new skills. Another important and far-reaching impact was thecreation and use of the model introductory infrastructure course materials. And we could point topowerful anecdotes as an indicator of our impact, such as a colleague who has organized twonational infrastructure conferences in Ghana attributing his activity to the

National and Institutional Responses to the Bologna Process: The Significance ofthe Danish CaseThe Bologna Process was initiated through a 1999 ministerial meeting involving the educationministers of 29 European countries. While expectations of professional labor mobilityaccompanied the Treaty of Maastricht, given the financial and monetary-policy orientation of theearly conversations about European integration, an explicit focus on higher education andworkforce development was absent from these conversations. The main concern behind Bolognawas that European universities, despite their reputation, were not producing the quantity orquality of graduates necessary for Europe to “succeed” in the global economy.2Following the general logic of economic

AbstractIn this research paper, we explore student responses to Utility Value Interventions in staticscourses. Introductory engineering mechanics courses (e.g., statics, dynamics) are critical pointswithin a curriculum, and student performance in these courses can have a strong influence onfuture success. And while these courses are often thought of as “weed out” courses, the ubiquityof these courses for engineers is what makes them an important place for students to develop themotivation to persist through their engineering education. One particularly promising tool for thisdevelopment has been Utility Value Interventions (UVIs) in which students are given opportunitiesto reflect on how their coursework aligns with their lives through short writing

It is expected that upongraduation, most students would seek opportunities in industry [1]. Laboratories offer therequired real-world experience that is reported to significantly impact students’ learningexperience when integrated into the engineering curriculum [2].However, the use of physical laboratories comes with high monetary implications forinstitutions in terms of equipment acquisition, equipment maintenance, and staffingrequirements, especially in a rapidly evolving field like BME.

significant number of students fail to maintain crucial mathematical skills,impacting their success in physics. Notably, concerns have arisen from engineering majors whoexpress displeasure in being required to take math classes as part of the engineering curriculum.While math and engineering professors may find this objectionable, it is a reasonable concern,given that mathematics is often taught as an abstract discipline, and students need to grasp itsrelevance to their future roles as engineers.To address this issue, we have initiated the development of an Integrated Curriculum, startingwith two pairs of courses: MATH 140 (Calculus with Analytic Geometry I) paired with PHYS211 (General Physics: Mechanics), and PHYS 212 (General Physics: Electricity

Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech, focuses on advancing written, visual, and verbal communication skills. Her research centers on affect theory and its application to technical communication, specifically information design. Jill studies how to enhance the effectiveness of pedagogical documents by incorporating principles from affect theory. Through her work, she aims to empower students, fostering an environment where they actively shape their communication interactions, including teamwork and ethical discussions. By integrating these principles, she goes beyond traditional methods, ensuring that students not only learn but also take an active role in shaping their communication experiences.Christian Sims, Georgia

Cooperative class environments are also perceived as“warmer” by students, which contributes to positive outcomes in a host of learning outcomes (likepersistence in STEM after graduation), especially for female engineers [35, 39]. Finally, reflectivelearning can be an important contributor to leadership development as it leads to interdependencewith others [39, 42]; connecting leadership experiences to coursework can deliberately engagestudent in reflective learning on their experiences.The curriculum is only one of two aspects of students’ college experience that influence theirdevleopment.

profession. The challenge for many engineering education programs ishow to include this global dimension in the curriculum. The most common and traditionalapproach is study abroad programs, however, a limited number of students can afford themdue to financial and other reasons. Thus, universities try to find other opportunities for the so-called ‘internationalization at home’3 e.g. cross-cultural communication trainings2. Acomparative analysis of the engineering curricula at the US and Russian leading researchuniversities shows that only few of them succeed in developing a global mindset of theirgraduates.

courses'competitive nature.Engagement is one of the main factors that can be used to predict academic success. An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great
