faculty provided a brief 2-minute overview of their research areas before breaking into small groups to visit the research labs. The program director created small groups of students based on research interests and grouped women students with women research faculty when possible. Research faculty conducted the lab tours and presented the details about their research to students. The presentations ended with Q&A sessions in the research labs. Although only a few majors were represented in the Research 101 workshops, the faculty delivered powerful messages about the importance and excitement of engineering research. Since summer bridge was in the summer, many faculty were away and not

Each of these fictional stakeholders had pre-described concerns with a power plantdesign as well as opinions about what a good power plant might do. These stakeholders weredesigned to have some points of commonality, but also points of disagreement on theirwants/needs for the power plant.

(2014) developed a Q-learning game platform to investigate the effectsof gamification on a learning activity targeted at basic concepts of C programming language toundergraduate students. According to the mixed-methods study, gamified learning activities had asignificant positive impact on the students’ engagement and improved their academicperformance. Game elements such as badges, points, leaderboard, and altruism were inserted intothis game platform. Students reported that points were the most motivating element to participatein activities.
