Future offerings of the course will include higher enrollment and a more detailed survey to assess particular desired outcomes. All students taking the course were senior level students, andall students successfully completed the course. Faculty observations from the course wereencouraging. Students reported strong satisfaction and value with the labs, projects, andhomework developed. Students were impressed with the delivery of the class for a first timeoffering. One particular student mentioned they had enrolled in the class due to schedulingnecessity and reported that they were glad they had to take the course since they

It is recommended that youprovide example student submissions (“good, bad, and ugly”) that are scored by a “mastergrader” to demonstrate strong, formative feedback. These can be an excellent tool for studentsand TAs alike to learn how a grading rubric is to be applied to an assignment. To improve thefeedback mechanism, tools provided by Canvas or Gradescope, for example, allow for TAs togenerate and reuse feedback while grading assessments.

Before diving intoo deeply, it is important to step back and think about alternatives, and what is most appropriategiven the scope of the program.While there could be many approaches, let’s consider two basic approaches to justifying anundergraduate research program: the first is to spend nine months creating a theoretical basis,and the second is to run a pilot and assess the results. • For the first approach, we will assume two people each spend 25% of their time doing research, meeting with stakeholders, and surveying students and faculty. If each person makes $100k per year and works on this project for 9 months, this amounts to a cost of $37,500 for the first approach. • For the second approach, someone

Due to intuition’s relatively newemergence in the literature, research thus far has focused on qualitatively describing perceptionsof intuition, how it is used, and how it may be developed. Previous work specific to engineeringdefines engineering intuition as “subconsciously leveraging experience to assess a situationand/or predict a future outcome” and situates its usage in the problem solving process as a toolused by experts when the problems they are tasked to solve face constraints [10].

Questionsrevolve around a student’s academic confidence level, the grades they have received, and theirfeelings of social inclusion. The answers for the questions use a Likert scale with an extra optionfor “Don’t Know”. The survey was scored on a scale of 0-6.

Thissentiment points to a need for a cultural change in engineering education and workplaces, tobring public welfare and ethical considerations front and center.Specifically, within engineering education programs, there is a clear need to integrate ethics andpublic welfare considerations into the curriculum [9], [20], [21], [22]. This should include notonly theoretical discussions about ethics but practical case studies and real-life scenarios thatengineers may encounter in their professional lives. Additionally, departments should emphasizedevelopment of professional skills like communication, teamwork, and ethical decision-makingin their curricular assessments [13], [23], [24].
