Suggested Lesson Planning Prompts How does the inclusion of selected content area(s) assist students with understanding the connections between the disciplines? What real-world problem or design challenge explicitly connects to what students are learning? Example: Architectural Engineers use the exposed surface area (mathematics) of a building compared to its volume (mathematics) to help design energy-efficient buildings (context through a design challenge). A building's shape is important because heat is lost through the building's outer faces. Heat is transferred by conduction (science) through solids like walls, floors, and the roof. The larger the area of outer faces the more thermal energy (science) is lost. Engineering

The use of accreditation panels thus provides another example of the way in whichknowledge is preserved by those in power and there is a need to involve people with a varietyof perspectives and experiences within accreditation panels [56].LOs are typically enforced by the structures and systems present within HE, for example byorganization of knowledges into distinct modules timetabled in isolation from one another.This can be considered to result in compartmentalized of knowledge.

The detection of cracks, erosion, voids, and gaps in walls and structural supports is criticalin preventing structural failures. Microwave-based, non-invasive techniques such as Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) are preferred to detect structural anomalies since there is no impacton the integrity of the structure or material due to the penetration ability of microwaves intodielectric materials. Current NDT equipment have several limitations and drawbacks, such asbeing

In terms of critical pedagogy, few studies questioned how to empower students of color (e.g., concientização) or considered taking action and working alongside the students (e.g., praxis) to de-colonize and re-inhabit their spaces, including all of these different domains that students of color inhabit” (pp. 157-158).In a similar vein, Patrick et al.’s state-of-the-art review of papers claiming to use critical methodsin STEM education found that many articles mentioned using a critical theory at the beginningbut did not follow through by
Students and Developing Professional Support NetworksIntroduction The Purdue University Rising Scholars program was initially funded in 2016 by NSF S-STEM#1644143 Rising Scholars: Web of Support Used as an Indicator of Success in Engineering. Theterm ‘Rising Scholars’ has come to represent the strata of the population that are of low socio-economic status (SES) striving to complete a collegiate education (Kent State University, 2021;Stanford University, 2020). The current collegiate entrance metrics favored by many well-regarded state institutions for their STEM programs have certain gateway values, and in general,do not select equitably across many notable factors, including gender; race; ethnicity; first-time,full-time status; and low-SES

majordifferences between coping networks of students who are able to successfully manage stress versusthose who are not able to? To answer these questions, we surveyed graduate engineering studentsat a mid-sized Mid-Atlantic institution. The survey consists of three major sections: (1) thePerceived Stress Questionnaire (S. Levenstein, et al. J. Psychosom. Res., vol 37, no. 1, pp. 19-32,1993.), which is a validated instrument that assesses an individual's perceived stress level, (2) asection for respondents to identify and rank major sources of stress, and (3) a section forrespondents to identify and rank major coping strategies. The survey identified research, grades,and issues relating to mental health as major stressors for all groups, and people
applying a holistic-content narrative analysis [70] to each interview,focus group, or journal. Next, we employ open coding which gleans from elemental methods:descriptive, in vivo, and process coding and affective methods: emotion, values, and evaluationto identify emerging patterns in the data [73]. Then, we apply axial coding to identify subthemes[74] and thereafter, group themes and sub-themes across all interviews and focus groups,formulate meaning through the clustering of themes [69], which will ultimately lead to theemergence of key findings.Research FindingsPreliminary Findings with EngWINS ParticipantsQuantitative Findings:Descriptive statistics from the S-STEM Pre (n=15) and Post (n=11) Surveys were calculated, asdisplayed in Table 3 and

However, the results inCheers et al. are unable to answer this paper’s research question because the purpose of Cheers etal.’s work is to measure similarity robustness in isolation, and does not attempt to evaluatedetection correctness [15, Sec. 4.1]. The gap between the work of Cheers et al. and this paper’sresearch question is filled by the development of the sensitivity preservation metric that considersonly the similarity robustness that is a result of correctly detected plagiarism. Additionally,Cheers et al. note that “...the interpretation of the second comparative metric poses a threat to thevalidity of results in this work. As discussed, it is not a
