-locatedmeetings among the researchers, categories were iteratively compared to identify themes relatedto the students’ perspectives, as suggested in [21]. The resulting themes were developed into acodebook [4].Quantitative Survey DevelopmentIn order to reach a broader population and gather more data, a survey was developed. Followingthe exploratory sequential study design, the qualitative findings were used to inform the contentof the survey. To first develop the survey, the authors of the paper worked independently andwrote several items pertaining to each theme in the codebook. The authors then worked togetherto edit the items and narrow it down to five items per theme, considering the best practices ofsurvey development: ensuring wording was clear

These diverse experiences and a growing passion for improving engineering edu- cation prompted Dr. Miskio˘glu to change her career path and become a scholar of engineering education. As an educator, she is committed to challenging her students to uncover new perspectives and dig deeper into the context of the societal problems engineering is intended to solve. As a scholar, she seeks to not only contribute original theoretical research to the field, but work to bridge the theory-to-practice gap in engineering education by serving as an ambassador for empirically driven

. For many, it is integral to the way theycommunicate with one another and document their activities. As such, their perceptions of theseconnections are possibly different than those of the authors, who might see social media as eithera distraction, or a potential “add-on,” to the learning and practice of engineering.Increasing our understanding of the students’ attitudes and dispositions towards social media,engineering and leadership can inform the development of engineering education and practice.Therefore, this study explores two related research questions: 1. How are social media, engineering and leadership related to one another from a student perspective? 2. How do student self-perceptions of their leadership skills change

Themes of resilience and perseverance are highlyindividualized and not necessarily correlated with liberatory action—they could even reflectstudent acceptance of and assimilation into the status quo.A stronger reflection of critical consciousness may be the way students describe the professionalwork they will do as being focused on making “impactful change,” “designing for everyone”(noting that this is distinct from historical practice), and increasing the inclusivity andaccessibility of engineering processes and products.

of measuring student knowledge gained,professional skills are not as easily assessed. Additionally, previous scholarship found thatprofessional skills are best acquired through experiential learning activities such as internships,research projects, leadership roles, and other co- and extra-curricular activities [3] - [8]. Thesefactors demonstrate the need to develop professional skills in students and create a mechanismthat assesses the skills. Thus, this certification framework aims to facilitate and track theacquisition of professional skills through an academic structure that encourages experientiallearning activities that will provide students with the skills required upon graduation.Therefore, to address the demand for well-rounded

Forexample, quantification of environmental impacts (e.g. using life cycle assessment) andpositive social impacts is now required, but it is late in the curriculum to introduce theseconcepts, which would be better shifted to the first year. The requirement for faculty todevelop appropriate material for each course is a significant barrier, which we hope thatSCOP can help overcome.In general, a community of practice is needed in order to keep the conversation movingforward, to normalize and support the thinking about how to teach these topics, and toprovide a forum for exchanging ideas and information.

Whilemany of the reviewed records proposed innovative solutions, such as educational games and signlanguage translation systems (Figure 3), these technologies often remained at the prototype stagewithout comprehensive testing in real-world environments. This raises concerns about thelong-term usability and impact of these technologies.
