Redman, Wiek, and Barth recommend identifying which reason whichtools should be used and how to connect learning outcomes with the tools used with apsychometric model. Tools vary from student self-assessment, reflective writing, case studies,focus group interviews, performance observation, conventional testing, and regular coursework[15]. These varying methodologies of tools can offer insights into how competent students are inthe realm of sustainability, so those selecting tools should be holistically assessing the topics ofsustainability. For example, one such tool, the Sustainability Matrix, aims to interpretcompetences in resource consumption, design

This difference in perception between colleges couldindicate that these perceptions disproportionately discourage women from pursuing engineeringrelated careers relative to men pursuing health and human services careers, which could explainthe relative low participation of women in engineering compared to other countries. Consideringthat these responses are only from students who are already pursuing degrees in these colleges, itis possible that these perspectives were developed while in the degree programs and may notaccurately reflect perspectives held by individuals at the time of selecting a major.Because differences exist between the proportion of Black/African American and/or

For instance, in the case of anotherelectronics course that utilizes different versions or manufacturers of instruments, developers caneasily extend the virtual lab to accommodate these new requirements with minimal changes. Thisprimarily involves updating the graphical model to reflect the different appearances of the newinstruments. Additionally, the physical model may be modified if there is a need to adjust thesimulation of the instruments’ physical behaviors, such as their interactions or movements withinthe virtual space. The functional model often remains unchanged, as the core functions of similarinstruments in electronics labs typically stay consistent. Figure 3 illustrates the three types

research.IntroductionDespite decades of efforts to broaden participation in science, technology, engineering andmath (STEM) fields, most professionals in these generally high-paying, high-statusoccupations continue to be white men. In the United States, the STEM job-growth rateoverall is more than twice the average rate for the total workforce [1, p. 201], with most jobopenings in computer science and engineering (CS&E) [2]. The limited representation ofwomen in these fields is apparent: Women comprise just 28 percent of workers in science andengineering fields overall, and even less in CS&E fields [3].These labor-force dynamics also reflect trends in U.S. higher education: Although women’spostsecondary attainment rates exceed men’s, women remain

The widthof the horizontal steps is determined by the number and distribution of graded activitiesthroughout the course, while the height reflects the weights of these assignments and activities.A student's struggle in a course can be visualized by the difference between their cumulativenormalized and possible score curves. This difference tends to increase over time, particularly forat-risk students, indicating a steeper decline in performance. Additionally, this data allows forcomparisons between the progress of an average at-risk student and an average passing student.Figure 1 (bottom) displays such progressions side by side, with averaging resulting in smoother,almost linear curves, while maintaining

One student suggested that providing freeinternet access or offering the ability to borrow or rent a university computer could ensure equalaccess for all. Another student mentioned that paying for internet services can be prohibitivelyexpensive, especially for those who do not live close to campus due to financial constraints.Therefore, remote lab developers should prioritize creating tools that are less dependent onresources that may be inaccessible to some students. This would help alleviate the digitalinequality barrier and promote more equitable access to remote lab
