strategies. It is questionable, too, whether or not the adaption of such proactive strategies wouldcontinue to be effective under the conditions of the global COVID-19 pandemic, as they had notpreviously been assessed on students undergoing the unprecedented conditions of collectivetrauma. The relatively small subfield of trauma-informed pedagogy has risen to the fore over thepast year, and research in this area suggests that students who have experienced (or who may becurrently experiencing) trauma(s) will likely struggle not only with time management, but morebroadly with related executive-functions such as planning and problem-solving [10], [11]. It iscertainly possible that we are only learning about the long-term effects of the
aspects of the course, providing a framework for any future instructor.AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Wake Forest University’s Center for Advancement of Teaching(CAT) for financially supporting the summer course development as well as CAT’s Dr. KristiVerbeke and Dr. Anita McCauley for overseeing the course development activities and providingclassroom observations respectively.Survey QuestionsModule Reflection SurveyQuestion 1.

within each top tier or phase. However, the original survey was intended forteams of four to six members. Given a team of ten members, the time to complete each surveybecomes prohibitive. Initial responses establish that the required survey time is approximatelynine to ten minutes, or one minute per team member evaluated. This aligns with other peer-evaluation studies on capstone design teams [57]. The survey questions are included as Table 3.

We surmise that research on engineering ethics and social responsibility may neverresult in a single unifying theory due to the complexity of the questions being asked and of theparticipants being studied.ConclusionThis paper uses single-case analysis to understand one student’s experiences and perspectives,including when those perspectives (and the student’s corresponding description of them) follow apath that is difficult to characterize. In future work, we plan to expand this analysis to includeadditional cases. While we are not aiming for generalizable results (which the case study methodis not intended to provide), we hope that adding additional cases to our findings will allow us tocompare across cases and

A reward structureshould be thoughtfully planned, to encourage effective contribution to the design work, and alignactor interests such that a shared success would be rewarded.Each set of learning objectives may be further studied in the framework of threshold concepts[8], [9]: Which learning objects are difficult to achieve, yet critical for holistic thinking,interaction roles, and interest alignment? In what sequence should they be learned, and how cansuch skills be recognized and rewarded in the formal curriculum?Table 4.

proximal development [17].This study is also influenced by the work on the collaborative nature of the engineering designprocess. The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) [18] proposed three steps to theengineering design process (define, develop solutions, optimize) that promote learners’understanding of fundamental concepts and skills in engineering. This model was designed forfour different age groups: kindergarten to second grade, third to fifth grade, sixth to eighth grade,and nineth to twelfth grade. For elementary-aged children, the Engineering is Elementary (EiE)design process model further suggests five steps in the engineering process: ask, imagine, plan,create, and improve [19]. This model is popular because of its potential and
in creating student cohorts. These algorithms are relativelycomputationally inexpensive, and easily translate to student cohort creation with somemodifications.Data and ToolsOfficial student enrollment data are released to the research team by the University Registrar.The datasets have been fully anonymized by the Registrar, with the uniquely identifiable studentID removed, and replaced with an ID increasing sequentially from one. Other attributes of thereleased datasets include: • Enrolled academic program of the student • Primary academic plan of the student • Projected academic year • Term ID • Class number • Subject of the enrolled class • Catalog number of the enrolled class • Class section • Class start time

phase.Conclusions: In future work, the researchers aim to develop tools to assess technical skill development. Ifthere was a way to demonstrate growth or improvement in skill development during the undergraduateexperience, it would serve two purposes. First, it could serve as a method to evaluate the technical workthat occurs in the design classroom, more fairly and with clear transparency to the students. Second, itwould allow students to see how their skills have developed over the course of their education. In general,differences among gender, 1st-generation and students with low- and high- engineering self-efficacy allsuggest that a variety of these activities should be planned intentionally to promote exposure to anddevelopment of technical skillsets

The two display panels also react synchronicallyto interactions when parameters are changed. This is more helpful for students to understand the respective strengthsand weaknesses of these rendering techniques rather than solely relying on instructors in explaining the differences.P4: Modular and web-friendly.

The data from both sources suggested astrong connection with interests, career plans, and family influences for females.For females, in both the quantitative and qualitative data, the perceptions of other peopleincluding parents, friends, and teachers could be strong factors influencing their interest.Qualitatively speaking, regarding the males, teachers’ and parents’ perceptions did not make thetop 10. Instead, money and the ability to get good grades in STEM topics could be strongerinfluences.However, the qualitative data differs from the quantitative data when it comes to parents andfamily being strong influencers.

There are four major sources of self-efficacy [21]: (1)mastery experiences, (2) vicarious experiences, (3) social persuasions, and (4) physical andemotional states. Mastery experiences are the interpreted result of an individual’s pastperformances, such as how a woman evaluates her self-efficacy in a course based upon the gradesreceived for that class.Vicarious experiences are where individuals observe others performingtasks, such as a woman undergraduate student observing a fellow woman undergraduate

I mean, this is really her work anyway.” When Melissa demurs, Taffy contacts Jordan to talk about it, and they develop a plan together that prioritizes Jordan’s concerns.We suggest dialogue as a first step to developing enduring accomplice relationships becausedirect dialogue with BIPOC is perhaps the only way to begin to understand the situationalcomplexities and priorities of colleagues.

general has beenso helpful because it's enabled me to lay out my work as if I was in class and it links everything.One amazing thing is using Google Sheets, Google Docs and I can share it with my professors,with my classmates, I can share my calendar with my girlfriend if she wants to figure out whenI'm free. So, just scheduling and being organized is such an important part of my personality andmy academic success. So, that definitely helps my functioning and performance.” Self-disciplineplayed a critical role in maintaining good STEM performance. An RP stated, “I think that itreally taught me self-discipline and being able to plan…That definitely helped me stay on top ofit and not really slip behind that much.” RPs indicated that they had become

So my parents are elderly. My, well, I don't know if they think they're elderly, but like they're changing now. And my older brothers, they're like 10 and 12 years older than I, so they're kind of like living their own lives. And like I said, one of them has his own family. And so I feel like there's like a responsibility for

We also plan to survey wider, more diverse populations of learners beyond engineeringand art classes, to look for differences in self-efficacy. Expanding the target educational level topostsecondary and professional learners would provide additional validity evidence for the use ofthis DSEI across many learning settings. Future directions may expand the DSEI more generally toany researchers interested in measuring drawing self-efficacy, whether using digital drawing

It isexpected that the ethical development that may occur when students participate in extracurricularactivities is due to intuitive, incidental, or retrospective approaches. The logic in this study is thatthe on-the-job experiences of engineering alumni provide a ‘jolt’ that causes them to reflect anddraw upon the ethical reasoning that they may have developed during college extracurricularactivities.Research QuestionsTwo research questions were explored in this study: RQ1. To what extent do engineering alumni perceive that extracurricular activities during

Furthermore, it is necessary to briefly experiment with the system, as there aretwo inputs, two spherical orbs on pedestals, highlighted by the rectangle and oval, which bothaccept an electrical charge as input, although it is not immediately clear how they will affect thesystem. The square box with a lightning bolt also accepts an electrical charge and its use is likewisenot immediately obvious. With a little experimentation, the player will learn that the upperpedestal shifts the state of all gates simultaneously and can accept an electrical charge directly orhave a charge applied from the box with the lightning bolt.

a variety of definitions and dimensions within the literature [10]. For example,Fruchter defines teamwork, in the context of (building) design, as a process - rather than acompetency - of reaching a shared understanding of relevant knowledge domains, the object beingdesigned and built, the design process itself, and the commitments it engenders [26]. Hirsch andMcKenna consider a variety of elements as part of teamwork, like conflict management,communication, leadership, and project management [21]. Teamwork is among the ABET learningoutcomes for engineering programs and is defined as “an ability to function effectively on a teamwhose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment,establish goals, plan
investigation [7], [28]. As a result, some authors continue to view onlineinstruction with suspicion [5], [29]. The primary criticism of virtual instruction is that it lacks thelevel of instructor-student interaction that occurs in-person [5], [29]. As a result, these criticsargue that online instruction should be provided synchronously, imitating in-person education asmuch as possible [5], [29]. Burns, Cunningham, and Foran-Mulcahy [24] disagree, however,arguing that carefully designed asynchronous education has the potential to be as effective assynchronous or in-person education. While synchronous instruction may be better equipped tofacilitate in-person interactions, with adequate planning, design, and unique pedagogicalapproaches, asynchronous
things she needed to do to excel. As she states, “When I started my job at AOC, I was nervous about the engineering work. This was my first exposure to such work and I had always believed I wasn’t smart enough to be an engineer due to my difficulty in math and science. However, I faced my fear, participated on every project team to which I was assigned, and eventually learned to read blueprints and plans allowing me to perform the work for which I was hired. Some people even said I couldn’t do it, that I would quit the job because I didn’t have an engineering background. I proved them all wrong.”As this statement indicates, Marjory explains that even though women are so often doubted inengineering, it
