. Thestudy analyzed student performance and course evaluations from an introductory materialsscience and engineering course at a university in the Southeastern United States. Initial findingsindicated that the average exam scores between the traditional and flipped setups did not differsignificantly. Further examination of the exam results was conducted to identify areas of difficultyand develop an enhanced approach for delivering course material. Additionally, the studyassessed student satisfaction levels through analysis of course evaluation data.1.

The first offering of thecourse was successful and we present an outline of the course for possible adoption by otherinstitutions.IntroductionStudents with intersection identities are less likely to graduate with STEM degrees due to systembarriers in higher education [1], [2]. To address these barriers, institutions need to take a holisticapproach and recognize the strengths that economically disadvantaged students bring– shifting toan asset-based mindset [3]. Nationally, only 20% of undergraduate engineers and computerscientist degrees are awarded to women, and only 6% are women of color [4]. Black/AfricanAmerican, Hispanic, and

The components of EIPCKwere determined through a comprehensive review of prior literature on pedagogical contentknowledge. The resulting EIPCK framework has four domains (engineering content knowledge,general pedagogical knowledge, engineering integration pedagogical knowledge, and contextualknowledge) and five components (1- Knowledge of Orientation to Teaching Engineering, 2-Knowledge of Engineering Integration Curriculum, 3- Knowledge of Students' Understanding ofEngineering, 4- Knowledge of Engineering Teaching Strategy, and 5- Knowledge of Assessmentin Engineering).

We propose a posterpresentation to discuss our SE Minor plan and collect data about people’s perceptions ofsustainability in engineering.1. IntroductionAddressing "Sustainability" is an overarching challenge for the 21st century, requiring engineersto play a critical role. In the US, undergraduate degree programs that directly attend tosustainability are of two types: (1) interdisciplinary programs that do not grant engineering degreesand (2) environmental engineering programs that are vital but do not entirely address the holisticnotion of sustainability.

(2) Whichdemographic of students are more likely to be stressed by oral exams? Thus, our surveys focusedon determining if excessive stress was experienced by the students.Participants: Data from 451 undergraduate students across six courses from two engineeringdepartments (Electrical Computer Engineering, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering) havebeen collected for the analysis in this paper.

For this reason, participation is often elective. However, when theseprograms are voluntary, they rely on students’ motivation, their beliefs about the usefulness andimpact on themselves as learners, and free time for engagement. In addition, early interventionprograms are often generic, i.e., not specific to a major. While having the potential to support abroad range of students this way, these generic programs are often avoided because studentsassume they will be irrelevant to their discipline [2]. As a result, they may not exhibit the desiredtransfer learning outcomes [3]. When

Instead, our project is developing, refining, and testing a protocol in which studentsevaluate prior work to prime them for learning while designing, through what we call Learningby Evaluating (LbE) [1], [2]. This approach introduces two important changes to the currentlypracticed paradigm: 1) actively engaging students—in addition to the teacher—in the critiqueand evaluation process; and 2) performing this evaluation of example work prior to embarkingon a design task, as opposed to review at the end.

We focused ononline learning modules because of their flexibility, which allows them to be used as an effectivestrategy for updating engineering curricula or to be used independently. Such flexibility isrepresented by the removal of geographical barriers in the way of educational opportunities andmaking course schedules more respectful of the learners’ time availability [1]–[3]. When itcomes to delivering
