Kahoot overcame expectations when it came to individual reflection and peer-instruction. The fact that the quiz can be played through a cell phone increases students’engagement, since the use of new technological resources motivates students and shortenssome distances between faculty members and students. Also, using electronic devicesenriches the classroom experience due to the pluralization of the learning channels.Considering that Kahoot quizzes present a game format, the natural competition amongstudents makes the classroom a friendly and fun environment. This competitivenessenticement leads to more involvement, and Kahoot clearly motivated students to reflecton the concepts learned. Also, regarding peer-instruction, it was surprising to see

In addition to our personal investments in PDI, we sought tointerview students from the program because it is the first and still one of only a handful ofundergraduate design programs housed within a social science department and coupled withstandard engineering curricula. We interpret the inclusion of social science in the PDI curriculumas an opportunity sample to explore issues of engineering and violence, given that social justiceand equity are already central to students’ studio experiences.While PDI is not officially an engineering program it is designed with the intent to couple withtraditional engineering curricula and is posited as a model for engineering education

Today, according to the accumulated evidence in Engineering Change, engineering education in the United States has changed dramatically. Engineering programs and faculty members have reengineered their curricula, teaching methods, professional development practices, program assessment and decision making, and, to some extent, their hiring, promotion, and tenure criteria. Perhaps most important, graduates in 2004 were measurably better prepared than their counterparts of a decade ago in all of the nine learning areas assessed.

. “Among college experiences, three experiences are significantly related tochange in engineering identity. Students with greater concern for a career where they can workfor social change, students who receive more mentoring and support from faculty, and studentswho experience more negative cross-racial interactions also indicate developing a stronger senseof engineering identity” [19, p. 22]. The notion that a stronger identity as an engineer is formed ifa woman is singled out in class or clubs repeatedly seems counterintuitive. However the studypoints to the fact that as a woman or URM students are singled out the uniqueness of theiridentity is reaffirmed, among those students who persisted.

The results of studentresponse before and after a lecture module show a clear trend away from extreme answers of“everything” (i.e., a sunset is priceless) and “nothing” (i.e., a sunset is free), and towards a betterunderstanding of public value and an answer that reflects “some dollar amount,” which is createdfrom the sum of the values expressed by each individual.
