This program was adapted for online facilitation during the summer of 2021as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings from this study provide considerations for theNFB’s future offerings of the EQ program. By more deeply understanding the challenges andbenefits associated with different modes of delivering STEM content to BLV students, educatorscan be more informed about developing STEM programming for BLV students that mayeventually encourage them to develop interest in STEM fields in the future.MethodsEngineering program overviewThis study explored data that was collected during synchronous Zoom sessions of the EQprogram, the NFB’s

The intent is to integrate design, manufacturing, and consumer activities seamlessly toincrease productivity, reliability and customer satisfaction. An Industry 4.0 manufacturingsystem—also called a cyber physical production system (CPPS)—integrates Internet of Things(IoT), Internet of Services (IoS, or also called Cloud Computing) and cyber-physical system(CPS) technologies [2].

The clustering coefficient is a measure ofthe overall connectedness of one’s network (how many of your friends know each other?), andcan be used to infer the overall interconnectedness of a student’s social network. Taken together,these analyses can describe the ways in which collaborative learning may shape a students’social networks and perceptions of social connectedness.The results of this study indicate that, in instances where students perceived that their instructorsimplemented collaborative learning more often, a student’s social network became more denselyinterconnected. Additionally, the number of friends a student chooses to work with is positivelycorrelated to how often said student works or studies in a

Learning logs: The students were allowed to write learning logs reflecting on their learning experiences both in and out of the classroom. Two types of logs were used. The first type was a reflection on their learning based on the homeworks or projects that they did. The second type was a learning log in lieu of attending a live lecture or watching an asynchronous lecture.

Dahan and Mendelson have attempted to expand the basicdichotomy (iterative vs. parallel) to include one-shot, sequential, parallel or hybrid prototypingapproaches [13]. Within this model, one-shot refers to situations where the prototype is the actualfinal design itself, sequential is synonymous with iteration, parallel describes exploration ofmultiple solutions simultaneously, and hybrid blends the sequential and parallel approaches.Dahan and Mendelson argue that a parallel approach to the prototyping process is best suited tosituations with high production costs and short project timelines [13

Prior research has demonstrated that a wide range of students with varying abilities and skill levelscan benefit from the flipped classroom format, but the benefits are not uniformly distributed among thegeneral STEM student population. For example, studies [2, 3] have suggested that medical studentsrespond most favorably—reporting heightened enjoyment, decreased boredom and a large gain inknowledge and skills—because the students naturally enjoy collaborative and project-based learning inhands-on environments.

All implementations of a mastery-based learning systems reported in the literature have shownbenefits, but reported outcomes are often quite different, making it difficult to compare the impacts of thevarious approaches.This paper is a follow-up to a previous paper by the authors that described how a mastery-based gradingsystem was implemented in three sophomore mechanics courses, Statics, Dynamics, and DeformableSolids through an effort we call The Mechanics Project [8]. The mastery-based grading system used inthose courses provides data on the progress toward mastery of every student on the objectives in thatcourse during each semester. This mastery progress is fed back to the student in
