published start and end dates and “hard”deadlines. Since 2014, the MOOC format has changed to “on-demand.” Students are allowed toenroll and start at any time. New class “cohorts” start about every month for every class. Thesecourses are self-paced with “soft” deadlines. The deadlines are suggested, but if the student fallsbehind they may join up with the next month’s “cohort” and continue to proceed in the classuntil completion.In-video knowledge checks are included in the module videos to stimulate learner interaction.The video pauses at various locations to allow students to reflect and answer questions on theirown about the material.

Participants in four robotics sections (N=95,28% girls) were surveyed using a validated reflective assessment at the end of the program.Three sections were mixed-gender and one section was single-gender. Two different femaleSTEM educators taught four sections. The assessment measured science interest, science identityand the four 21st Century Learning Skills; critical thinking, perseverance, relationships withpeers and relationships with adults. Participants in the robotics programs experiencedstatistically significantly gains in science interest and identity. There were no statisticallysignificant differences between the genders or in the single gender section. For the 21st CenturySkills, participants had gains across all skills. Females reported a

Next, programs might encourage their staff to reflect on theirexperiences with various women of color in engineering throughout their academic careers.Program coordinators in particular may consider better understanding the needs and expectationsof women who come into these organizations and the ways that the organizations do or do notmeet their students’ needs

The survey, at thetime of this study, did not consider non-binary gender populations and have since rectified thisegregious oversight in subsequent iterations. Given the status of the survey, there was a cleardifference between genders when it came to computing identity, specifically in recognition(males scored 3.4 overall while women scored 3.0). This showed that women who were highachieving in computing still showed signs of feeling less acknowledged as computing peoplethan male students. This means that, at home, at school, and in social circles, women do not feelas if they are being recognized as

The sections, illustrated in Figure 2, reflected the various stages of the designprocess, as well as administrative/project management components of engineering design. Inaddition to assigning each section a point value, instructors can choose from a number of generalcomments or input custom comments. This wide range of scores allows instructors to track studentprogress in each section throughout the 3-course sequence, addressing the criteria of applicabilityacross a wide range of students. By widening the scale and broadening expectations as studentsprogress from course to course, many stages of development can be accounted for [10]. Hence, toreflect increasing expectations

The CC facultyalso attended sessions by the leaders of the research topics (alternative energy, cyber security,wearable medical devices, green and sustainable manufacturing, and nanotechnology) that gavethem an overall view of current research goals and progress. The goal of hosting these seminarsis to describe real world problems being worked on, as well as providing access to leading-edgeresearch outside of their own primary laboratory.Beyond these seminars and workshops, CC faculty were asked to complete weekly homeworkassignments that asked them to reflect on their research progress and

The GO GREEN program was specificallydesigned to be approximately one week abroad and at a low cost so that working students couldafford the program and have time to attend. The average cost for the program, not includingtuition and fees, is approximately $2,500.

The highest concentration of gradesfor distance students was at the ‘C’ grade, with over 10% of distance students in the D/F/Wcategory. In contrast, no on-campus students finished in the D/F/W range and over 80% finishedin the ‘A’ or ‘B’ ranges. With the exception of the semester project, the average grade forcampus students was higher in each of the grading categories than for distance students(homework, exams, final exam).

We also used a differenttimeframe; rather than considering a single class period, we asked students to reflect on theirengagement across the entire semester. These differences allowed us to develop a comprehensivepicture of student engagement profiles, which we hope will be useful for electrical engineeringinstructors. Specifically, knowledge of students’ engagement profiles may help instructors tounderstand the various ways students engage in a course.

Several institutions found that amixed-mode approach which balances active learning and passive learning is best for teachingstudents, especially in early stages of development [4]. Thus, in order to teach STEM topics toall students, supplementary teaching tools should be utilized.There are some assignable causes linked to the lack of engagement and success in STEMclassrooms. Many times teachers themselves do not have adequate training to teach STEMtopics. This problem was illustrated in a study done in 2007 that revealed the United Statesranked 41 out

In the end, we aim to gain a better understanding about whether the branch of theengineering profession called LTS cultivates imaginaries that echo LTS’s articulated values ofequity, justice, empowerment, and transformation and bring engineers closer to the publics theyaim to serve. Ultimately, we are interested in determining whether LTS aligns itself more closelywith diverse publics’ articulations of their own visions, definitions of their own needs, andvisions
