Of the demographic variables, workexperience was significant for all online course impression factors except for online coursepreference [6]. In Rivers, 2021 [13], the author examined the role of personality traits and onlineacademic self-efficacy in acceptance, actual use, and achievement in online learning [13]. Thestudy defined personality as “dimensions of individual differences in tendencies to showconsistent patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions,” and to measure specific personality traits,the study used the five-factor

conocimiento [24]. I began my engineeringeducation career by studying the ways in which different ways of knowing, doing and beingimpact engineering narratives and practices, with a particular focus on dismantling dominantdiscourses that (re)produce deficit models.As a critical scholar invested in racial equity, my broad aim is to elevate these students’voices, epistemologies, and help (re)frame Latino/a/x engineering students as holders andcreators of knowledge [25-27] that should be acknowledged in our pursuit of educationalequity in engineering. My research opposes the notion that students possess inherent deficitsthat must be “fixed.” Instead, I argue that these deficit ideologies further marginalize studentsand perpetuate false models of

a group in their academic career. As such, there are elements of the project, particularly during the analysis and writing of the memo, that require more hand-holding on the part of the instructor. Teaming conflicts occasionally occur, but surprisingly, group dynamic issues have been far less prominent for this project than in the other courses that this instructor has taught. To gain some perspective on team dynamics, this instructor has a prompt at the end of the final exam asking the student how they would divide up a $1, 000 bonus for the work done on the design project amongst the members of the group. In this instructor’s experience, very few students indicate a significant deviation from an

]. Decisions under climate change are deeply uncertain, and DMDU approaches havefrequently been applied for long term planning for urban infrastructure [2]–[4]. Decision makersmust plan and take some form of adaptive action (including no action or deferred action) toaddress the impacts of climate change. These actions tend to be informed by complex modelinganalyses, and it is often difficult to communicate the modeling results as well as the advantagesand disadvantages of different actions to stakeholders and decision makers. It is equally if notmore difficult to communicate these concepts to civil and environmental engineering studentswho will be confronted with similar decisions in their future careers. Serious games may offersome solutions to these

response from higher-level classcontradicts this. Authors should investigate the reason behind this result further.Response to question 4 “ChatGPT should be used for every assignment, occasional assignments,only difficult assignments or problems, no assignment” is shown in Fig 4. As can be seen, thereis a consensus among students about minimum use of ChatGPT for assignments. All theinstructors in our research group allocated the first session of class to emphasize the importanceof learning material in depth and the consequences of relying entirely on AI platforms in relationto future career. Here, a similar trend was observed in the junior-level class with 9.9%, 21.2%,54.5%, and 15.1% responding to these four answers, respectively

furthering the student's abilityto not only recognize other applications of the concepts covered, but to develop the valuableability of connecting concepts and theories across disciplines. A traditional approach may haveyielded more competence in applying the current techniques of compression, encryption, anderror correction. The students might have been more skilled at algorithmic development for theimplementation of a specific encryption scheme, for instance. But that deep knowledge wouldgradually become less useful, as the implementation specifics and schemes evolved over theircareers. Instead this course provided the students, something that would become gradually moreuseful over their careers – to expose them to how basic concepts are

expectations clearer. What is significant tonotice about this trend in comments, however, is that students are acknowledging—thoughperhaps not being totally aware that this is what they experienced—that open-ended project-based learning assignments are full of ambiguity as many other researchers havediscussed.19,20,21,22,23 Engineering student are most comfortable with clear cut formulas that havespecific uses and applications in specific contexts. They are not as comfortable with open-endedand ambiguous assignments, which may make them feel disoriented about how to achievesuccess or how to recognize success.

In manyways, what educators are tasked with is providing students with models of the skills andcompetencies that will be required to continue self-education beyond the end of formalschooling. As educators, we need to provide the “spark”. However, as Mourtos[in 44] has pointedout, the main component of the ABET criteria 3i “…recognition of the need for… lifelonglearning” is not an aspect of the traditional cognitive domain usually focused on in highereducation. Rather, it belongs to the affective domain, not a skill that can easily be “taught” anddirectly assessed, but still vitally important. The second component of 3i “…an ability to engagein lifelong

would certainly benefit from formal instructortraining. The granting of a degree (Ph.D. or M.S.) does not automatically bestow teaching skills,especially effective teaching skills. Most professors simply try to emulate observed styleswithout any justification as to the effectiveness of different teaching styles. The lack of formaltraining programs at most universities, and nearly nonexistent programs to provide constructivecriticism from peers relegates most faculty to the very slow process of developing effective (ifthey are lucky and persistent) teaching styles through a long career of trial and error. Add thedemands of research and the priority at many universities of the greater importance of researchover teaching, and it is easy to
