In the present project, we have launched and have begundevelopment of a web platform open to the world that focuses on economic, ethical, andcommunity issues in global oil production. Development of the web platform, titled PetroleumEngineer, is modeled on the highly successful web platform for students’ reactions toengineering ethics, the Ethical Engineer: https://EthicalEngineer.ttu.edu. The PetroleumEngineer website is being developed through a required undergraduate course in the PE major.The primary materials for the Petroleum Engineer website are petroleum engineering casestudies, approximately 1000 words in length.

and about STEM.We identified that empowering and establishing rapport with teachers was important for creatingopportunities for teachers to reflect on their teaching practices. The teachers sought to createSTEM learning opportunities that explicitly drew on students’ funds of knowledge, specificallytheir home language practices (including translanguaging) and border-crossing experiences. Theproject also allowed teachers to create materials that could result in a sustained and equitablechange in the educational experiences of working-class Latino/a/x in STEM learning. Finally,students constantly created ways to represent their identities and ways of being through theengineering activities, and reflected on the impacts of engineering design in

and thus effective teamwork?InterventionWe have adopted several modules of the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Tools for Teamwork:Asset Mapping and Team Processing Handbook [11] to introduce students to important teamconcepts. Prior to forming groups and as part of the Handbook, students are asked to reflect ontheir identities, strengths, communication and conflict styles. As part of this, they complete aseries of self-assessments [12] and generate an asset map where they give thought to how theirlife experiences, not only educational experiences, will benefit a team. For an example of whatan asset map looks like, see examples in [4], [13]. Further, students read several articleshighlighting diversity and engineering and write a short

It means speaking up and promoting discussions that incorporate multiple perspectives and heighten individual knowledge. • Collaboration: This requires cooperation, mutual respect, effective feedback, and common goals within the team. • Experimentation: This aspect is related to the independence created by uncertainty; it required teams that assess and learn from their actions. • Reflection: Teams need to be critical of their results and they need to be ready to implement the changes necessary for their improvement.We propose this model fits best the current needs of chemical engineering students as theconcept and

Two key definitions of self-assessment that guided this study werethose of Brown and Harris [5] and Panadero et. al [6]. Brown and Harris [5] defined self-assessment as a “descriptive and evaluative act carried out by the student concerning his or herown work and academic abilities”. Panadero et. al [6] went a step further to include themechanisms and techniques involved in performing the self-assessment work. They defined self-assessment as a “wide variety of mechanisms and techniques through which students describe(i.e., assess) and possibly

currentchapter.While several studies reported the effectiveness of the concept map as a cognitive learning tool,the effective interpretation of the concept map is one of the key factors. Because of the big sizeof the concept map in general, interpretation of each of the components and their interconnectionby learners is not always very smooth and reduces the efficacy of using the map. This issue isreported in literature and the term “map-shock” is used to portray its harshness [19, 20]. Map-shock is the reflection of a student’s reaction to the gigantic and complex nature of a conceptmap, especially if the map is an entire course-wide presentation. To avoid this complexity, and tomake the concept map easily recognizable, this study used the shape of a tree to

These questions were targeted to get students' individual opinionsabout challenges they experience in their STEM courses, strategies to stay focused in theircourses, and steps students take to mitigate these challenges. Later, we divided these studentsinto seven focus groups comprising five groups of four students and two groups of five students.In the focus groups, students collectively reflected on their learning challenges and strategies thatworked for them. Also, students suggested the factors that influenced their decision on theirfuture in a STEM career. The students' focus group discussion were video recorded.

Work-in-Progress: Engaging First-Year Students in Programming 1 During COVID-19AbstractDuring the Fall 2020 semester, it became even more important than before to engage students inthe “classroom” whether that be in-person, online, or a hybrid model. This paper will introducevarious entrepreneurial mindset (EM) techniques to engage students that could be adapted to anyengineering course. All the techniques have suggestions for adapting to a fully online course aswell as working for an in-person or hybrid class. The first activity presented will be name signswith badges that will promote (1) setting, evaluating, and achieving goals, (2) self-reflection, (3)considering a problem from multiple viewpoints, and (4

Thefirst is that students entering the mechanical engineering department as a freshman compared towhen they prepare to leave the school after graduation their knowledge of the design process hasgrown to reflect what they have learned over their education. Another conclusion is that it isimportant to teach the steps to the design process to the students as first year

More recently, various researchers have explored theefficacy of CEL and research immersion experiences. Research shows that teachers learn tonavigate complex, intercultural encounters through challenging CEL experiences promoting,“reflective, critical and ethical practices” [25].Since international engineering CEL has the potential benefit to both increase interculturalawareness, while also demonstrating engineering as a career that helps humanity, engagingteachers in this type of experience may prepare them to encourage and inspire their students,particularly females and other

The four composite variables are defined as follows in theLIWC Manual [6]: • Analytic Thinking - A high number reflects formal, logical, and hierarchical thinking; lower numbers reflect more informal, personal, here-and-now, and narrative thinking. • Clout - A high number suggests that the author is speaking from the perspective of high expertise and is confident; low Clout numbers suggest a more tentative, humble, even anxious style. • Authentic - A higher number is associated with a more honest, personal, and disclosing text

Previous studies have discussed the impact of design, development, and use ofeducational technology tools on creating an interactive learning environment for students.However, in the realm of user experience, limited studies explored the context of technology andstudents’ experiences while interacting with educational technology tools, such as students’perceived ease of use. Accordingly, this work in progress study explores reflections of students’experience while interacting with the most commonly used education technology tools inpostsecondary classrooms.

Over thepast twenty years or so, we have tried in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MichiganState University (MSU) to delve into areas that are normally not on the radar of the mechanicalengineering student. Those areas are “extras” in the teaching of students and if we take the timeto question our students on what they have been asked to do outside of the technical pursuits, Ibelieve that we will find that their perceptions of life in the real world will far exceed fluids andcontrols. The purpose of this paper is to look at all the things that have been experimented withover the years at MSU and in future papers prepare documentation that reflects the reactions ofthe students to these “extras.”Within this paper will be a
