The findings demonstrated that the participants perceived the workshop asvaluable and enabled them to see how computing can be a medium to solve problems of humaninterest as well as a tool of self-expression. In particular, participants reported that the empatheticassistance given by the peer mentors made the learning process smoother, thus making itinspiring, engaging, and less intimidating. Going forward, more experiments and fine-tuning areneeded to continue to scale and improve the Guild. However, we hope the description of ourworkshop and findings from our investigation encourage other researchers and educators toconsider similar approaches to engage women and non-binary students in

Teamwork assessment tools like CATME (a web-based peer evaluation tool foundat catme.org) can help instructors identify teaming problems amongst students [11], [12].Challenges remain, however, for instructors of large courses who want to address such problemsin getting enough of the right kind of information to effectively intervene to help studentsimprove their teamwork skills, and then knowing how best to coach teams exhibiting evidence ofdysfunction.Researchers have established the outsized burden that minoritized teammates carry

The results of the study suggest that the redesigned sequencepositively impacted students' material mastery, communication, collaboration, andmetacognition. Although the sample size was small, and the results were not statisticallysignificant, it was found that students' view of math and perception of their preparedness mayplay a role in their participation and how they interact with the material, with peers, and with theinstructor and TAs.Keywords: engineering math, Calculus, active learning, redesignIntroductionCore curriculum for

This habit may have been created by the tools given to them, the smart phones and handheld devices. Given these text-only tools, students are less likely to choose a table or a graph, which can tell a better story. When graphics are done, they tend not to be professional in nature; rather they are the simple images with limited quality (e.g. like poorly take pictures that are fuzzy or shadows and backgrounds showed on non-scanned images). • Student reports need detailed peer review for grammar and structure.
