the educational quality and results in multiple disciplines. Priorwork, e.g. [4], investigated the application of gamification in various domains, as presented inTable 1. Overall, 53%, of these studies are predominantly focused on science, technology,engineering, and math (STEM) [4]. This distribution reveals that a large degree of feasibility isplaced on subjects where the application of knowledge is the primary focus. Topics such associal sciences are not detailed as a category in this list, whereas the application of gamificationin every listed category is simple to determine [5].While a majority of gamification studies and work has focused on STEM fields [4], relativelylittle has been applied to power engineering education [6] and these

Undergraduates (REU)program has been a pivotal initiative aimed at enhancing undergraduate education in science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. The REU program provides studentswith opportunities to engage in hands-on research experiences, which are critical for fostering adeeper understanding of scientific inquiry and enhancing retention rates among undergraduates inSTEM disciplines (Alaee & Zwickl, 2021). The program has been instrumental in addressing thehigh attrition rates in STEM fields, particularly among students from diverse backgrounds, therebycontributing to a more inclusive and innovative workforce (Rodenbusch et al., 2016). One of theprimary benefits of REU programs is their positive impact on students' decisions
comprehensive, meta-analysis study comparingtraditional lecturing versus active learning in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics(STEM) education, Freeman et al. found active learning to be the “the preferred, empirically validatedteaching practice in regular classrooms” [2, p. 8410]. While there is no single agreed upon definition forALS, these spaces have common features that make them recognizable for the affordances they provide tosupport pedagogy. Broadly, ALS can be traditional classrooms, deliberately designed rooms,“polycentric” or “acentric” with no clearly defined center, and spaces with easily accessible tools anddevices to promote active learning [1]. Attention to ALS started to take shape in the 1990s with a studyfrom the

can inform more effectiveassessment strategies aligned with educational goals.IntroductionTypical learning goals for any higher-education science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM) program target the ability of the student to learn and retain information related to theirfield of study. While the pedagogical strategies employed to meet these goals may differ both atthe institutional level and based on their discipline, they can be broken down into a moregeneralized set of learning goals that are common across STEM. The Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology, Inc. (ABET) provides the generalized set of learning goals thatmany engineering institutes of higher learning follow to inform their pedagogical approach andto ensure that

This issue carries significant implications foreconomic sustainability, scientific advancement, and national security [2]-[4]. In the UnitedStates, the underrepresentation of minority groups in STEM remains a persistent challenge.Specifically, the STEM education system is predominantly Caucasian, with
