This is similar to thefindings from Antink-Meyer et al.’s study wherein science curiosity and change in confidencewas not observed. Reflection on content and the development of content knowledge was notdirect. In addition to examining journaling strategies that sustain connectedness to inquiry andengineering design experiences, future studies are needed that examine whether disciplinarydomains imbue associations between types of curiosity and types of epistemic engagement.RQ2 What is the nature of the engineering curiosity expressed
increasing access to like-minded peers through astructured cohort-based community of practice. Participating in this program allows engineeringfaculty to add value to the promotion and tenure portfolio that goes beyond curriculumdevelopment to disseminating best teaching practices. Given that today engineering facultymembers are even more accountable for the effectiveness of their teaching and learningactivities, this is an ideal program to incentivize engineering faculty in a way that enhances theirpromotion and publishing opportunities.To learn more, visit www.PurduePD.com.6.

However, five of node 29’s direct connections (a totalof 21 other nodes) were made and maintained through workshops alone, and so node 29’snetwork is still decreased when workshop connections are no longer considered.Also of note are the two relatively large nodes who did not use workshops in developing theirEM: 11 and 3. When connections made through workshops were removed from the network, thebetweenness of node 3 dropped a small amount from 0.08 to 0.06.

a team decided they’d like to obtain help from a Consultant, they could choose one to“hire” from a list of all the Consultants in the program. The team reached out to them to schedule amutually agreeable time and were asked to give advance notice on the topic(s) with which they want toreceive help. The Project Consultants were trained such that their interaction was much more aligned withfocused instruction that enabled a team to solve their own problem, as opposed to directly solving theproblem for the team. In this way, working with a Project Consultant served to both advance the progressof the team’s project and reinforce the broader course outcome of increased engineering self-efficacy.

are a few limitations of the potential study. As an exploratory research study, thestatistical significance of the analysis has limitations compared to the ones from theexplanatory research study. Another limitation is that it needs to be further tested in differentsettings such as large, commercial, educational applications, or across different institutions tomake the results more generalizable. Furthermore, the study doesn’t account for differentconfounding variables such as ethnicity, academic performance, or race. Moreover, this studycould be enhanced by including the process data such as classroom observations for students’engagement [28] , or other students analytics data.References[1] D. Yang and S. J.

sustainable energy through salinitygradient [2]. Prospects for the various energy sources were assessed after the 1973 oil crisis, andSidney Loeb [3] introduced the idea of PRO in the 1970’s. However, research slowed down in the80s and 90s due to the expensive cost of the available membranes, which would make osmoticpower generation financially unviable. More recently interest in searching new clean and non-periodic energy sources resulted in the construction of several large or small-scale pilot SGP powerplants [4, 5]. Salinity gradient can provide us with a very large source of clean energy. Riversaround the world with an average flow of 1.2×10 m3/s have the potential to produce up to 2.5 TWof energy. This is about 13 percent of the current world's

opportunity to improve access and support to increase gender diversity in these spaces.Other literature points to methods of studying student experience and emotion when using CAD fordesign, such as Villanueva et al.’s 2018 multimodal study on emotions and electrodermal activity indesign activities [59], which could have applications for finding ways of making CAD software moreaccessible. Similarly, Zhou et al. [60], Phadnis et al. [61], and Deng et al.’s [62] studies point to multi-user CAD as a new technology with the potential for higher user engagement, collaboration, and learning.Unfortunately, these studies, even when they report participant gender, are limited by a lack of genderanalysis, thus failing to report on how women may experience

The mid-2000’s brought the development of a multi-disciplinary upper division university satellite program that embraced the Aalborg (DK) modelof PBL. The new multi-disciplinary program had ABET outcomes at its core, focusing on thedevelopment of a whole new engineer, especially developing innovative strategies

Students reported personal development, socialdevelopment, and social engagement as the greatest benefits of participating in extra-/co-curricularactivities. The most common types of participation were in job; sports; design competition team;culture, faith, gender, and identity; and professional experiences (e.g., internships). The variety inthese top activities illustrates a range of engineering student involvement in both engineering andnon-engineering activities. Other studies have affirmed distinct benefits of non-engineering versusengineering

College administrators noted that students neededguidance in navigating their growing course options and class electives as colleges introducedmore majors and career paths [5]. Kenyon College was one of the first colleges that required theirstudents to choose a faculty member to assist them in this process and mentorship [20]. Aboutthirty years later, Johns Hopkins University would establish one of the first formal advising modelsbetween students and faculty members [21]. During these early years, the faculty would

How much light do they like in their room asthey go to sleep?
