the data focused on the re-flective third interview. To analyze the data, we followed basic qualitative practices for first and second cycle coding,including 1) reviewing all nine interview transcripts to establish a base understanding, 2) creatingparticipant profiles to include basic information, 3) re-reading each interview and noting signif-icant statements about the participants’ experiences, 4) comparing these noteworthy and signif-icant experiences to determine emergent codes, 5) creating a preliminary codebook that definedeach code and provided examples, and 6) grouping the codes into categories to better understandthe participants’ experiences. Although we did not use ICT as an a priori coding framework, itdid serve as a set of

A graduate research assistant also helped to coordinate the logistics forgroup meetings. Additional information about the formation and support of the faculty affinitygroups can be found in the prior publication [11]. Four groups emerged from the faculty retreatactivity focused on, respectively: 1) rethinking how technical writing is taught withinengineering, 2) revolutionizing content-heavy courses through flipping, 3) enhancing studentlearning in math-intensive courses, and 4) aligning student outcomes across the program’s designproject spine.

As online educationbecomes more popular and in some cases more necessary, it is important to understand theimpact on engineering education, particularly in situations of forced distance education. Thisstudy provides insight into the challenges that come with emergency online instruction and coulddrive decisions on priorities for in-person learning environments.Appendix 1.

professional skill sets that are required to fulfill the research and development needsfor these advanced systems. As early as 2003, mechatronics was identified by Technology Reviewas one of the top 10 emerging technologies with potential to change the world [1].However, despite experiencing tremendous, dynamic growth, MRE has not yet settled on anagreed-upon body-of-knowledge, leading to unmet needs for standardized curricula, courses,laboratory platforms, and accreditation criteria, resulting in missed career opportunities forindividuals and missed economic opportunities for industry. To enable MRE to coalesce as adistinct and identifiable engineering field, the authors have conducted four workshops on the futureof MRE education at the bachelor’s
and EPICS at Purdue), many newer and emerging programshave not yet have published any information. In fact, some of these LTS activities are notroutinely included in courses but are integrated intermittently by motivated faculty -- sometimeswithout widespread recognition within their own college or university. This paper presents aninitial summary of some of the lesser publicized LTS activities based on a literature search andtwo recent workshops associated with the NSF-grant on Engineering Faculty Engagement inLearning Through Service (EFELTS). Emerging LTS patterns, opportunities, challenges, andresources are summarized to provide an expanded view of the landscape of what is currentlyhappening in engineering.BackgroundLearning Through

Discussions amongst our team with otherstudents and faculty members at our institution consistently focused on how best to allowstudents to take control of their learning experiences. Having worked on a proposal for a similarspace before, our mentors introduced the idea of a “tinker” space of sorts, where students wouldbe given access to technologies typically out of reach for the average undergraduate. Thismakerspace would be a product of the makers’ movement that has emerged in the last decadeacross campuses as a solution to the twin problems of keeping students engaged and givingstudents valuable knowledge and skills for the workplace.1,2 As an interdisciplinary teamourselves, the idea of a makerspace that appeals to

secondary analysis on interview data from a larger study using aphenomenologically informed coding procedure. The data were originally collected using aphenomenological methodology. Because phenomenology seeks to highlight “sharedexperiences” between participants [45, p. 199], we used open structural coding to find theemergent main codes common between the participants, and we followed this with patterncoding. The results highlighted in this paper stem from one main code that emerged from thisprocess: hidden epistemologies, which is defined with two subcodes in Table 2.PositionalityThe context of white supremacy and patriarchy in engineering impacts each of the authors of thispaper in unique, nuanced ways due to how the systems of power and

Thus, this phenomenological study (Moustakas, 1994) explores howseven Black engineering faculty developed deeper student mentoring relationships due to servingas mentees in the Increasing Minority Presence within Academia through Continuous Training(IMPACT) mentoring program. The IMPACT program paired Black engineering faculty withprimarily White emeriti faculty for career-focused mentorship, networking, and advocacy.Moustakas’ (1994) four-stage process of phenomenological data analysis was employed toexamine three rounds of interview data: epoché

On the other hand, the term others has emerged as apoint of discussion, with evaluators seeking clarification on its meaning in this context and the intentionsbehind its inclusion in the evaluation. A common query revolves around whether others refer to all othersand if it is necessary to specify the exploration to a particular instance of others. Furthermore, evaluatorshave recommended avoiding an informal language register in the phrasing of items, emphasizing thesignificance of maintaining a formal and professional tone throughout the evaluation instrument.
