they often hire their former TAsas RAs. This, of course, assumes that you already have graduate students. So what do you dowhen you are just starting out?Xiangwu “Sean” Zhang, Samuel S. Walker Distinguished Professor of Textile Engineering andAssociate Dean for Research says that when he was new, he would contact his own professorsand friends and ask them to recommend their students. Joel DuCoste added that he makespresentations at meetings of student groups and “I attend conferences designed for studentengagement at the undergraduate level like National Society of Black Engineers AAASEmerging Research network conference.” Another tactic is to circulate opportunities toacademic advisors, or post them on a departmental web site or social media

the student evaluation is 83% and 27%,respectively. There are nine labs in ENGR 240; therefore, each lab takes 3% of the total grade.Out of the seven courses, CE376 and EGR 270 take more than 50% of the total grade from thelabs, and the others have around 30%. Individual labs weigh from 3% to 15% of students’ labcourse grades. Note that EE221 did not have any information about lab evaluation in the coursematerials.Table 4.

CoalitionThe opening of the workshop invited introductions and affirmations. Author 1’s affirmation drew onNigel Golden’s (2020) talk, “A Politic of Harm Reduction,” in which he began by disclosing his ownvalues and positionality in order to situate himself to his audience. Because Author 1 was an unknownentity entering into a complex situation, she adopted this approach, too, sharing a quote from Audre Lorde(1984) as well as a reference to Indigenous People’s Day since the presentation fell on IndigenousPeople’s day (see Figure 1) Figure 1.

Table 1 shows the elements of the three simulations, and the nature ofthe improvement rounds, and Figure 1 shows some of the physical elements handled in thesimulation.In the manufacturing simulation, four students create tails, wings, fuselage, and do finalassembly of a LEGO airplane. Their pace is controlled by sand timers to prevent a LEGO-building race. Two other students bring them the parts they need through an initially cumbersomesupply chain. Students overcome physical difficulties with 5-S, training, and standard work.They then redesign the

recommend continuing use of learningcommunities in the future. The method for forming communities depends on whether the courseis first or later in the department sequence, and may also vary for flipped versus lecture-basedcourses. We recommend using software like CATME [10] for first courses and flipped courses,while we recommend using seating preferences in later courses and lecture-based courses.Reforming communities mid-semester depends on the need for getting to know more peers andon the type of course: flipped or lecture-based.References[1] M.

Throughout the program, students received consistent messaging about the importance and value of collaboration and teamwork.

Students worked together with the faculty member to develop the class discussion process, and were encouraged to pose questions for dialogue (instead of just answers). (3) The

the major engineering curricula and there is some anecdotal support to grow more.As the demand for more engineers and more EC courses grows, cloning and scaling well-prepared and relevant EC courses are ways to meet the impending demand.This paper provides guidance for EC teaching priorities, learning activities, and industry-informed projects. Whether an engineering program opts to build a stand-alone course or embedengineering-focused communication content and skills in an existing course, instructors andprogram directors are well positioned to shift EC pedagogy, practice, and assessment towardcontent that matches future work styles, career trajectories, and agile work teams.References[1] V.
