. In the field of engineering, morespecifically, programs are often characterized by their narrow focus on and rigid adherence tostandardized ways of thinking and traditional modes of instruction and assessment [1, 2]. Thisone-size-fits-all model of teaching and learning limits opportunities not only for traditionallearners to engage in interactive learning and creative problem solving but also for studentswhose ways of thinking fall outside of the typical range. While accommodations such asextended time on exams and assistance with notetaking may provide some form of equity forthese students [3-5], they fail to address the underlying mismatch between the unique abilities ofneurodivergent students and the demands of the traditional educational

Among pre-pandemic students, we previously found thatfemale engineering students have a higher grade-threshold for seeking SI [1], are more likely touse SI and with a greater frequency [7], are more likely to find SI helpful [3], and receive greaterbenefits from SI, in terms of improved grade outcomes [2,7] compared to their male peers.Whether an individual is a first-generation college student and/or a member of anunderrepresented population may also impact their self-efficacy and inclinations to seek helpduring their first year of college.

Oliver and Megan advertised theimportance of the macroethics lesson beforehand, the low attendance for both the macroethicsand regular lessons may be due to students believing that the social components of engineeringare not relevant to their technical education [1].Or, this level of attendance may just be a product of national student attitudes toward in-personattendance post-COVID [23]. During other “technical” class periods, there were typically 40students present in person. Oliver noted a reason for low attendance as the fact that lectures wererecorded and he posted typed notes. Students complete individual assignments and exams andlearn the technical content through lectures on the whiteboard or online. There is nocollaboration during or

Perceived benefits from robot integration in introductoryprogramming courses include an increase in programming skills, peer learning, and studentmotivation [3]. It has been observed that along with fostering creativity, using robotics in thesecourses increases student success [4, 5]. In general, introductory engineering courses haveincorporated robots with a goal to increase problem solving skills [6] and overall programretention [7]. However, robots are often a source of frustration to students.

promising indications these techniques were positively perceived bythe students.1. Introduction: Literature Review and Instructor BackgroundThe benefits and effectiveness of active learning for student problem solving, conceptual gains,exam scores, and engagement are well established [1]–[5]. Active learning is defined as in-classwork by students that goes beyond simply listening to the instructor and taking notes [6]. Despitethe known benefits of active learning, lecture-based teaching in STEM is still the prevalentapproach, with active learning in general propagating at a slow rate [5], [7], [8].
