[clicks the Submit button]”At the beginning, Ray briefly mentioned the density equation when referring to atomic weight,similarly to Max, and paused to rethink. Ray then approached this question using relationshiptransfer between knowledge: A (APF) isn’t affected by B (density), but C (atomic weight) and D(atomic radius) affects B, thus A isn’t affected by C and D. Although the final answer is correct,the thinking process here did not evidence a direct conceptual understanding of the APF and howit relates to other parameters as Max did. However, Ray was able to make sense of this questionusing different connections of knowledge

A module isdefined as lessons teachers implement that contain content and learning experiences organized tocreate a clear learning path for students. The civics education pillar will consist of 4 modules(1.a: What is an effective citizen; 1.b: Principles of democracy; 1.c: Democratic practices andinstitutions; 1.d: Authentic civic actions). The design thinking pillar will consist of 2 modules(2.a: Identifying problems and 2.b Addressing problems) that delineate iterative modes thatencourage students to empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test[5].

of the method’s limitations isthat it lacks a control group to compare and record differences or contrasts [22]. Even with theweakness, this methodology was used as it was best suited for research objectives. Since acontrol group was not required, a post-test was only needed to be administered to a single group.The following is the information regarding the one-shot case study methodology: a. Single Participant Group: Included female Hispanic high school students from rural areas. This demographic was chosen to address the underrepresentation of females, particularly those from minority ethnical backgrounds, in STEM fields. b. The Model: A 3D bridge model was developed and experienced in the AR environment. The 3D bridge model was

adjustment allowed the motorizedwheels to be lower than the caster wheels, improving the traction. However, this solution camewith a drawback: it increased the rocking motion of the robot, making it more challenging tocontrol. Thus, solution B was designed. As can be seen in Figure 4, solution B consists ofmerging the motor mount with the chassis by eliminating the gap that was causing the issue. Thisallowed all robots to have consistent traction. Gap Figure 4: (Left) Initial problem with traction due to the gap shown. (Middle) Solution A for the short-term allowing more traction but more rocking. (Right) Solution B eliminated the gap.

). From a broaderperspective, experience that increases professional formation as engineers is known to be a keyfactor in student success [3]. Extra-curricular reinforcement of interest and application ofcurricular learning also tends to support the completion of engineering degrees and thusavailability of potential workforce [4]. Engineering students are more likely to find collegiateand professional successes when leadership skill development is implemented early andrepeatedly during their learning [5, 6].The authors were led to the present effort by (a) the opportunity to address DoD interest in bothleadership and innovation skills, (b) the college’s prior positive experience with peer mentoringand with undergraduate research, and (c) the

; BackgroundAssigning grades as a practice in educational systems has been used commonly since the early1900’s [1]. Grades are globally ubiquitous to students’ academic success. Whether representedalphabetically (A, B, C, D, & F) or numerically (through percentages or grade-point averages)grades can be considered a universal language taught to nearly everyone as early as primary andelementary school.Grades are a practice tool and serve dual function in educational systems. Formative assessmentsare ideally low stakes assignments that happen multiple times in a way that scaffolds studentlearning and development and deliver frequent real-time feedback to students [2], [3], so anygrades that are a result of a formative assessments (e.g., homework, quizzes
