Individual raters on the assessment team assignedscores for each category on a Likert scale ranging from 1 (beginning) to 4 (exceptional). With 4points possible in each of the five video assessment categories, the maximum possible rubricscore was 20. The three raters individually calculated a score using the rubric for each of the 29video projects. These three scores were then averaged to determine a final score for each video.These final video assessment scores ranged from a low of 9.83 (49%) to a high of 19.50 (95%).The mean score for all 29 videos was 16.36 (82% of the maximum 20

The independent studyspanned one semester and was 3 credits.Student Project Work and ResultsProject OverviewAutomation, as defined by the International Society of Automation, is the creation and applicationof technology to monitor and control the production and delivery of products and services [11].Designing a process or system to operate automatically can reduce the number of laborious tasksthat were typically required to be completed manually. Today automation systems are widelyused in large-scale projects to control or assist with manufacturing equipment but otherapplications of

AWS Academy curriculum is not specifically gearing toward certification so ACloud Guru certification prep and Whizlabs practice exams were used for content knowledgemastery through scenario-based questions testing.Survey MethodsHigh School Bootcamp ParticipantsStudents who attended the summer bootcamp were provided with daily surveys to complete atthe end of each day of camp and focused on gathering feedback about what students learned eachday, what may have been confusing, and their interest in the topics presented
global, interdisciplinary, and entrepreneurship subject areas. Students are expected todocument and reflect on their work in their portfolios as they complete the experiences. Uponcompletion of GCSP, students must submit their completed portfolio before they graduate.Although several universities have active programs with GCSP graduates, there is no publishedwork focused on understanding the impact that the GCSP experience has on student developmentas engineers. Dancz et al. published a first attempt at developing a rubric to assess the outcomesfor the five GCSP components, but it was not applied to GCSP; its use was limited to theassessment of student outcomes in a specific sustainability course[3]. Our work aims tounderstand how participation
undertook analyses guided by the following three research questions: 1. How do engineering alumni with high intentions and high interest in pursuing entrepreneurial activities compare with peers with low entrepreneurial intention and interest in terms of demographics, career-related characteristics, self- confidence and interest in technical concepts and problems? 2. What factors influence alumni’s interest in and intention to pursue entrepreneurial activities? 3. For engineering alumni who have been entrepreneurs in the past, what activities led them to either become more entrepreneurially-minded or divert to a non- entrepreneurial career

first yearstudents can do reasonable conceptual design without the detailed technical knowledge theyacquire only later in their programs. In fact, there is a strong belief that first year design-orientedcourses: • Enhance student interest in engineering as well increase students’ retention in engineering programs; • Motivate learning in upper division engineering science courses; and • Enhance performance in design courses in general and in capstone design courses in particular.While there are different views of the proper metric for assessing retention, there seem to beenough data to support the thesis that a design course or a course that contains design elements-including projects, teams and written and oral

-term ethical behaviors within engineering, a website is being developed tohost educational modules on global engineering ethics and conduct research on cross-culturalmoral psychology. The modules are all-inclusive, with a cross-cultural and international focus,requiring less preparation on the part of instructors and are easier for different types of students touse than existing online resources. Education and research using the site can occur at the sametime, each strengthening the other in the process. Rather than simply ethical understanding or theability to reason ethically, research on moral psychology can ensure more ethical behaviors, betterunderstanding what people know and think about ethics and the causes of (un)ethical
