” demonstrates that the REU site experience was beneficialin promoting the inclusion of these students in engineering, regardless of its perceived impact ontheir academic performance. Because the REU site was heavily focused on research, it is importantto understand what specific aspects of conducting research the participants preferred, to understandhow to implement these factors in future programs and in the existing engineering curriculum.Therefore, participants were asked to indicate how much they agreed or disagreed with a series ofstatements following the prompt “One of the best things about doing engineering research is beingable to…” (Table 3).

, thebenefits of inquiry-based learning were highlighted. The students generally took this assignmentseriously and developed test programs that would serve as a strong basis for Masters Thesis. Theprojects were not as formal or extensive as graduate level research, however the students gainedan appreciation for design of experiments. Several of the groups conducted extensive fieldexperiments including field demonstration of wave erosion protection using geotextiles (pullouttests conducted at a local beach) and investigation of water infiltration rates to different surficialsoil types around San Luis Obispo County. More often than not, the scope of the experimentaltest program had to be edited (based on recommendations from the instructor) from

: Using Workshops to Scaffold InterdisciplinaryResearch, Collaboration, and Community BuildingAbstractCo-creation in academe can take multiple forms. In this research, the co-creation focus is oncollaboration between faculty and graduate students to develop educational modules. Thisactivity is designed to improve graduate education and prepare students for conducting graduateresearch. In previous work presented at ASEE 2022, we discussed benefits and challenges ofparticipating in the co-creation process. This current paper focuses on how we took lessons fromour first year and transformed them into a structure to better support interdisciplinary research,collaboration, and community building.We will discuss how we supported the process of co

A multi-level mentoring experience was created by pairing the RET participants with theREU students, faculty mentors and graduate students. RET participants joined 4 weeks before the end ofthe program. RET welcoming events were added to foster inclusion into the research environment. Onesuch event, REU science chalk talks, enabled both groups to ask and answer questions, creating a uniquebond.

The overall goal is to develop dis- ciplinary communities of practice across the college of engineering. The approach is being promoted through semester-long faculty workshops and then through a semester of supported implementation of faculty classroom innovations. Changes in faculty beliefs and classroom practice should positively im- pact student performance and retention. He was a coauthor for the best paper award at the FIE convention in 2009 and the

Teaching, lacking such metrics, does not have the same broad recognition ofscholarship (and effort towards training) that research does. When teaching is recognized, it isoften a local award—such as a departmental or college honor—than something that istransferrable between institutions. In fact, many stories exist (and have existed) for decadesabout teaching awards being viewed in a negative light by the tenure and review processes asthey indicate time that might have been spent on technical pursuits (that next paper, that nextexperiment, or that next grant proposal) which are
