adequately the protective performance of a vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment with respect to human occupants.” [3] Although cars are getting safer with the infusion of new technology, like air bags, varioussensors and driver automated assistance systems, the use of dummies in well-established testingprograms continues to be the standard for regulation, communication with the public and futureimprovements. Testing using dummies informs the design of the vehicle through data collectedprimarily by three types of sensors: accelerometers (measuring acceleration in a specificdirection); load sensors (that measure the force of impact on a specific body part); and motionsensors (that measure deflection of a body part during a crash

allowsstudents to get involved [2] in meaningful ways in their campus community (and beyond).Understanding the navigation and impact of undergraduate research experiences for STEMstudents is limited and primarily derived from Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU)programs [3]. There is a recognized need for research that more broadly explores undergraduateresearch experiences [3] considering their potential impact on individual students, institutions,and the engineering disciplines.For individual students, there are potential benefits in the form of professional competencydevelopment, persistence, self-efficacy, and GPA [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11]. Forinstitutions (especially R1 institutions like the one where this study was
, measurements and mathematical analysis react to internal and externalforces acting upon it by finding or applying quantitative physical laws.Technology owes its practical successes to discoveries achieved by scientists with purelytheoretical intentions, as in the case of many physicist. It is true that in other cases discoverieshave arisen through scientific investigation of technical concrete problems. Thus, the creation ormanufacturing of technology must develop through basic investigations in order to solveproblems of application. Hence, there exists a continuous exchange between the sciences ofphysics and engineering [Morón et al., 2011].Advanced manufacturing methods for UAVs include design analysis relating to the aerodynamicforces of thrust

Later spaces at the community or university level have become sites that fuelinnovation and innovation-backed ventures, leading to makerspace participation becoming onepotential stop on the path towards commercialization of technologies. Prominent organizationslike the Maker Media-backed Maker Faire [3] events and the global Fab Lab Network [4] havecontributed significantly to the international expansion and standardization of makerspaces, aswell as the development of the personal identity of the ‘Maker’ and the ‘Maker Movement’ [5].As the maker movement gained momentum, libraries and educational

An example schedule is shown inFigure 3.Figure 3. Example schedule for one remote faculty development workshop.Optional sessions and work time each day are shown in green.The last outcome from the virtual setting was that many facilitation teams were highly successfulin building community connections in a virtual space. Our 2019 activities with virtual year-longcoaching helped us manage this, and we confirmed that it is possible to create inspirational EMworkshops using remote techniques. As a result, the decision was made to keep all facultydevelopment workshops remote in 2021

suggests that that the divide between socialjustice (SJ) concerns and technical knowledge in engineering curricula is an important reasonthat students with SJ concerns leave engineering [1, 2]. In their recent book, Engineering Justice,Leydens and Lucena [3] present criteria they hope “can be used to guide educators [to render] SJvisible within the engineering sciences without compromising valuable course content.” Oneapproach is the so-called “Problem Re-write Assignment”: students write a context for atraditional “decontextualized” engineering science problem. We undertook this pilot study tounderstand how students frame their thinking about “contextualized/decontextualized”(Con/Decon) problems and what resources they would use to write a social

stagnant over the past decade, and 88% of centers report staffing shortages, resultingin up to 48 days wait times on some campuses (Gibbons, 2019). In response to those challenges,many counseling centers have implemented practices such as wait-lists, session limits, referrals tooutside offices, and community education and training (Watson, 2013).Engineering StudentsPrior studies have found that engineering students suffer from mental health issues at similar orhigher rates than their non-engineering peers, a trend that has continued into the pandemic (Lee &Wan Adam, 2016; Lipson et al., 2016; Loosemore, Lim, & Ilievski, 2020).
