, University of Virginia Sarah Lilly is a PhD student in the Department of Curriculum, Instruction and Special Education at the University of Virginia. She holds a B.S. in Mathematics and English and an M.A.Ed. in Secondary Educa- tion from The College of William and Mary. Her research centers on STEM education, particularly using qualitative methods to understand the integration of math and science concepts with computational mod- eling and engineering design practices in technology-enhanced learning environments. Prior to beginning doctoral work, she taught secondary mathematics for four years as well as created and implemented an interdisciplinary, project-based mathematics, science, and principles-of-technology

shift in pedagogical practices among industrial engineering educators, ultimatelyempowering the next generation of industrial engineers to drive innovation and progress in theindustry.IntroductionCuriosity is a primary motivator of learning, invention, and innovation. Curiosity is essential inengineering education for fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and lifelong learning skillsrequired to face 21st-century issues [1], [2], [3]. Lindholm [4] posited strongly that modernity isfundamentally rooted in curiosity, which serves as a catalyst for knowledge acquisition, freshperspectives, and creative thinking in both individuals and groups. In the opinion of Pluck andJohnson [5], curiosity is an aspect of intrinsic motivation with great

. Undergraduate teaching assistants are integral tostudent success in the course. As the first points of contact for students, they assist with contentdelivery, guide students through hands-on labs and projects, and deliver feedback onassignments. Effective undergraduate teaching assistants are peer leaders and mentors to first-year students; through these workshops, we seek to ground their leadership and mentorshipapproaches in principles of global inclusion, diversity, belonging, equity, and access (GIDBEA).In this work, we outline the workshop curriculum. Scaffolded into three parts, the workshop isdesigned to provide the teaching assistants with the ability to recognize and confront bias amongindividuals and within teams, help them develop an

Leadership strategies that may feel uncomfortable to undergraduate students will become increasingly relevant as they gain experience with organizational contexts outside of the university classroom, but it can be overwhelming for them to wait until they leave university to learn these skills. Two historically popular strategies for integrating workplace learning into engineering education are semester long co-op terms and 16-month internships. If these two options are not feasible in a particular institutional Page 26.1519.12 context, it is possible to infuse meaningful experiential

Furthermore, theauthors call for higher levels of faculty engagement with, and support of, diverse learner styles,toward building diversified teams of problem-solvers. The authors push against the traditionalrhetoric of diversity as an end in itself, and advocate for statistically balanced representation inthe student population and attention to diverse learning styles. By examining the ABET EC 2000 Criteria, Smith [5] concludes that the proposed criteria willbe difficult to achieve by certain students unless current engineering curriculums andpedagogical approaches are radically restructured.

multi-dimensional model of engagement will serve as a better predictor of academic performance and retention for low-income STEM students than a single-dimensional model. 3. Specific Aim #3: Develop a platform to identify warning signs of engagement that may give advisors an early indication that a student is at risk of leaving school. o We hypothesize that a platform displaying multi-dimensional engagement levels over time will work as a better early warning tool for advisors than tracking end- of-semester grades alone.At the end of the S-STEM grant term, we will have developed an engaging two-year project-based curriculum in STEM including technical hands-on activities

. This percentage for engineering courses was mere 0.86%. This is unfortunate since theinfrastructure required for online education has been primary developed by engineers.The perceived obstacles in widespread integration of online courses in engineering curriculumscan be divided into two categories: physical obstacles and cultural obstacles. A major physicalbarrier is how to provide hands-on trainings, which traditionally take place in laboratories andmachine shops, in an online setting. However, this may not be a major problem since, contrary towhat one may expect, the data shows that online education is primary “local”. A little over half ofall students who took at least one online course took some face-to-face courses at the sameinstitution

In our first plenarymeeting, we spent time talking about what our image of successful students is: what changes we wishto affect in them over the term. All of these were set off by the process of reflecting on reflecting. I do think this is actually connected to a fundamental issue in education - that the curriculum wegenerate for students is informed by an image of what sort of people we want to produce at the end ofthe educational or training process and that for instructors to take the time to

Students often find thereality of engineering design overwhelming the first time they experience it. They beginundergraduate engineering programs learning science and math through formats steepedin a learning culture that is linear and process-oriented to identify the single answers tocarefully constructed problems. Consequently, students demonstrate significantdiscomfort or reticence when thrust into situations in which they are expected to embracea nonlinear, circuitous process to solve an ill-defined problem. In these circumstancesstudents employ their practiced, linear paradigms and struggle to engage in the requisitework of
