In a scoping review of empathy in nursing students, simulationincreased empathy levels and confidence, and is deemed beneficial for enhancing empathyawareness, sensitivity, and decreasing negative emotions [31].Empathy is central to the nursing role, fostering and promoting the therapeutic nurse-patientrelationship. Empathetic nursing care requires self-reflection, mindfulness, giving of oneself, andviewing the patient as a whole. Empathy allows patients to feel validated, understood, andrespected. Collaboration and communication between nursing and engineering is

and in identifying formal evaluation criteria that robustlycapture whether skills have been acquired. Of interest is whether tools can be developed thatprovide more robust formative assessment of a modeling activity. This contrasts with summativeassessment approaches which largely benefits the assessor in reducing grading times byevaluating the result but can miss important tendencies in a student designer that might need tobe corrected. For this to be feasible better metrics that reflect how a modeling activity isprogressing not just with respect to realizing a final shape goal, but also in capturing designintent and meeting best practices is needed. In this paper some of the challenges of evaluating 3DCAD modeling efficacy are explored

However, Omar perceived his work as separate from efforts in diversity or equity, the“science side of things.” Later in the interview, Omar also mentioned that he did not have a lot ofinvolvement with the Center outside of his lab, lab work, and advisor.

After this, the instructor typicallypresents the true conclusion, which is always an entertaining time—especially if a team wascorrect but was not voted up to the next level.Students are asked to reflect on the experience together in a classroom-wide discussion. Themain takeaways typically regard:• The criticality of due process, the formality of investigations, and the correct handling/ interpretation of evidence.• The power of perception, and how remaining impartial is paramount when the stakes are so high.• The nuance and broadness of engineering as a profession and skillset. Equipment can be very sensitive to small elements, and a broad knowledge base is needed to not only understand the

This question was derived from previous work that quantitatively exploredundergraduate engineering identity and recognition beliefs [11] and specifically uses thephrasing “see you as an engineer” to keep questions in the participants’ language [37]. The open-ended nature of the focus groups allowed for follow-up questions and permitted researchers togather rich details about participants’ experiences to go beyond whether they do or do notbelieve others saw them as an engineer and to better explore the qualities of experiences that ledto these beliefs.

limitation is mostlikely due to the FPGA’s ability to connect two ALMs during the routing process, where a wirewith a width larger than 1120 cannot be connected between two ALMs. The data we report onlygoes up to a maximum bit-width of 1024, so this limitation is not reflected in our graphs. Also,the Goldschmidt divider has a smaller range than the other dividers because it was not able tosynthesize above a width of 244. This is due to the limited number of DSP blocks.4.1 AreaThe FPGA used in these tests is the 5CGXFC9E7F35C8 from the Cyclone V line.

Through thisexperiment, students gained practical skills in experimental design, data analysis,and interpretation, fostering a deeper understanding of biomaterials beyondtheoretical concepts. The inclusion of ethical considerations in the biomaterialcurriculum was addressed through a debate. This encouraged students to reflect onthe societal implications of biomaterials research, fostering a sense of responsibilityand ethical awareness among future practitioners.The study employed both qualitative and quantitative assessment methods,including pre- and post
