The new framework expands uponuniversal design principles and provides guidelines that are anchored in a strengths-basedapproach and centered around three core elements: a culture of inclusion, teaching and learning,and instructional design. The application of the standards across the three courses has commonelements (e.g., the ability to choose standard versus creativity-based assessments) anddifferences to reflect instructor style and course content (e.g., incorporation of design aspects inmore advanced courses). It is anticipated that the use of these standards will improve learningoutcomes and enhance the educational experience for neurodivergent students.MotivationNeurodiversity is a term that has

Such opportunities are fundamental to the development of students’ ways of thinkingand knowing that help them to prepare for the profession. The growth of problem and project basedlearning (PBL) and other active learning experiences speaks to broad acceptance that ill-structuredproblem solving experiences are valuable to

The goal of this work inprogress is to present how the e4usa team adapted teacher PD to establish community amongour teachers and between teachers and staff, use this connection to enhance ourresponsiveness in PD, and deliver the engaging content of the e4usa curriculum. Teachersengaging remotely in e4usa activities have led to productive adaptations based on theirchallenges. The lessons learned reflecting back upon the PD will inform the design, delivery,and content of future e4usa teacher PDs.

Many researchers have studied thecorrelation between the delivery method in classrooms and students’ learning preferences. Learningpreferences can include active, reflective, sensing, intuitive, visual, verbal, sequential and globalstyles. Researchers have studied engineering students’ learning styles to help instructors in theclassroom adjust the method of delivery and strategy to enhance student learning outcomes.However, few studies have related the personality of engineering students and their learningpreferences.

The Module's design objective was to have the possibility of bringing the value ofthe face-to-face experience -focused on active methods from the constructivist educationalparadigm- to the virtual world. Besides, we had to maintain the expected learning levels andmake them significant. To analyze the students' perception of the Module's success, weadministered an instrument already used before.

For this researchpaper, we focused on the beliefs of high school students as selection of a collegiate major is oftenchosen during high school and student beliefs about smartness have serious implications for whoconsiders themselves smart enough (or not) to pursue an engineering degree.

Most participants with low CSE described their lack of creativity in the arts. They alsodiscussed being “intimidated” by negative classroom experiences more than their peers with higher levels of CSE.Those with low CSE were also exposed to more engineering centered experiences in high school, and most had aparent who worked in the profession.

A partially affective rubric was used to score the students, and the final examwas only worth 10% of the final grade. The students had been individually assessed on all of theprior material on partial exams. At the end of the exam, students were asked to individuallyanswer some technical prompts (e.g., How would your approach change if you had more time?What additional information would you want? Which of the results are you least confident in andwhy?) and to reflect on the exercise itself. The experience and feedback were overwhelminglypositive

Approach to First-Year Ethics InstructionThrough both success and failure, many engineering projects have a profound impact on individuals and society.Thus, ensuring future engineers consider these impacts and reflect on the ethical implications of their future work isan extremely important topic. There are many pitfalls with the traditional ways in which ethics is taught toengineering students. Often it is taught by a non-engineer as an abstract philosophical topic, rather than an act ofpersonal decision making situated in complex real-world contexts. . It is usually included late in the undergraduatecurriculum, such as during a senior capstone project, and is a relatively short subtopic (module) within a larger
