Methods andapproaches for effective virtual and/or distributed teamwork have been taken up in a number ofstudies with clear implications for engineering education [e.g. 14-15, 23]While

Ruengvirayudh, P.AbstractThis Complete Research paper will address the timely interventions the first-year science andengineering students used at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) to reverse their initialstruggles, measured by an early alert and/or midterm deficiency, to improved course grades.First-year undergraduate students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics(STEM) disciplines face many challenges, including (1) transition and adjustment from highschool to college, (2) time management skills with academic, personal, and socialresponsibilities, and (3) addressing different levels of preparation for their STEM classes. Toaddress the struggles that the students face, the First-Year Advising Committee (FYAC) at LMUconducted a

These threeelements are noted as being critical for young engineering female students finding success in themale-dominated culture of engineering makerspaces, so we justified their adoption in thisomnidirectional mentorship program for promoting shifts in faculty attitudes towardunderrepresented members and new approaches to work and life [21].4.1 ParticipantsFor the first semester of the program, eight faculty members from various departments(engineering, computer science, technology, biology, education, and graduate psychology)comprised the cohort, and this cohort of eight was divided into two mentorship circles using onlyscheduling constraints to drive circle placement.

progress describes a pilot to incorporate critical reflection activities, completed byindividuals and by teams, during the implementation of design activities in an early-career,project-based learning context. As described in full below, critical reflection has beendemonstrated as a high-impact practice that can deepen learning and cultivate a productivefuture-oriented mindset [1]–[3]. Thus, activities that incorporate reflection into projects havegrown in use and garnered increased attention in engineering education for their transformativepotential [4]–[6]. Further, consistently engaging in reflection on learning as a community has thepotential to develop environments and classroom cultures that value student growth andcommunity [7].Critical

Finally, in order to maintainthe students’ focus on the assigned tasks, virtual meetings should not be scheduled for longerthan two hours.Although the virtual environment is a big challenge, it also brings some opportunities andbenefits. First, it allows us to recruit participants from a much bigger student pool withoutincreasing the program expenses. Second, it allows us to invite more guest speakers throughwebinar format, who otherwise may not be available for the in-person seminars.
