. These impacts are particularly pronounced in regions with limited resources tocombat theft, where the compounding effects of non-technical losses and infrastructuredeficiencies hinder economic development and social progress.Addressing electricity theft also represents an interdisciplinary challenge at the intersection ofengineering, policy, and technology. By examining electricity theft through the lens ofengineering problem-solving, this paper introduces students and educators to real-worldapplications of electrical engineering, artificial intelligence, and data science. It provides a casestudy that combines technical challenges, societal impacts, and innovative solutions, illustratingthe broader relevance of engineering to pressing global

Theuse of these qualitative insights with the quantitative academic metrics demonstrates how bothcan be used to support student outcomes. The integration of both results in creating a classroomenvironment that supports students both academically and emotionally using individualized datafor each. The integration of technology to connect this information makes it possible in real timefor large classrooms to enhance the overall learning experience for students.References[1] ABET, (2025), https://www.abet.org/accreditation/accreditation-criteria/criteria-for- accrediting-engineering-programs-2025-2026/[2] S.

Instead, mastering the prerequisites(algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) is more important. Hence, we find it crucial not to makeassumptions on what the student does or does not know and start with diagnostics to assessstudents’ prior knowledge and provide paths that allow the student to progress effectively.1.2 The Consequence of Prolonged Time to Degree CompletionCalculus 1 serves as a critical gateway course for many advanced science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) classes.

REU programhas proven to be an effective means of fostering students' research interests, encouraging them topursue advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields,and cultivating a diverse and skilled workforce for STEM careers [3, 4].A strong STEM identity has been linked to a higher likelihood of pursuing a STEM-relatedcareer. Understanding how these identities develop and are nurtured—both through formalinstitutional education and informal programs like the REU—is critical. Previous research hashighlighted two key factors in STEM identity formation: (1) an individual’s sense of belongingto an educational institution and to the STEM fields [5, 6]; and (2) authentic learning experiencesand outcomes [7-9
