The need to understand how toproperly negotiate tenure and promotion given the interdisciplinarity of engineering education andthe culture and expectations of one’s broader institutional environment is a task that is made easierwhen connected to successes that have experience. Additionally, many researchers in the samplereported utilizing conferences as meeting grounds for ongoing projects or launchpads for newprojects.Although large conferences and workshops are an important asset of resource sharing

Achieving these goals requires “a broadeducation that incorporates a range of technical and social science and humanities knowledge,”“an appreciation for other cultures,” and “more ethical treatment of those who are different.”It is now becoming more widely acknowledged that engineering decisions require a sense ofsocial justice, fairness, and equality from a global perspective [18] [20] [21]. Responsible andwell-designed engineering projects, according to Baillie [20] are sensitive to the economic,social, and political factors at local and global levels.3.0 Machine-Based Assessment MethodsThe present paper considers machine methods for assessing changes

Rather, they are the maincomponents or ingredients that are required to solve problems. In most problems, many of theSeven C’s will play a role, though perhaps not all of them at once.In addition to providing a framework for organizing new knowledge and skills, the structure andvocabulary of the Seven C’s can be used to identify specific areas of learning strength andweakness.

Performance based assessment has been extensivelystudied, in particular, the use of formative assessment tools such as rubrics to provide feedbackon student work [21]. However, rubrics are more commonly used on writing assignments, oropen-ended projects, such as design reports. Courses that emphasize content (i.e. facts, and theapplication of physical and mathematical concepts) are common in engineering curricula. Inmany engineering courses students are asked to solve closed-ended problems to demonstratetheir mastery of the material in these types of “fact and principle

Optimaldistinctiveness theory (ODT) is the psychological theory that we initially deemed useful forunderstanding belonging and inclusion in groups [1], [2]. ODT posits that people feel satisfiedwhen the groups they identify with fulfill both their need for inclusion and their need fordifferentiation [1], [3].Based on faculty experiences supervising team projects, we hypothesized that some students whoare marginalized on the basis of race, gender, or other forms of identity often have unbalancedneed fulfilment due to excessive distinctiveness and minimal similarity [4], [5].
