Strong cybersecurity is also imperative for preventing anderadicating threats to the national security and defense systems. However, there is a lack ofcybersecurity experts to meet the huge demand in the U.S. Specifically, according tocyberseek.org currently there are over 572,000 job openings for cybersecurity experts [1]. TheBureau of Labor Statistics projected that the employment of information security analysts, whichis only one of many cybersecurity career pathways, is expected to grow 34.7% from 2021 to2031. This is 6.5 times higher growth than the projected

These are closely related to actual corporate structures for dealing withcorrosion issues. As further detailed sub-components were specified, certain limitationsof existing (mostly paper based) educational products became apparent: • the treatment of corrosion and its control in mainly descriptive terms, as opposed to a more quantifiable approach; • the relegation of management and economic issues to the fringes, with particular emphasis on technical issues; • the limited treatment of emerging important methodologies in corrosion control, such as computerized information, knowledge

Based on this perspective, Team C felt thatfrequent meetings with their user were vital to the success of their project and endeavored tomeet with their user as much as possible. The team used these meetings to iterate on their designconcepts and their understanding of the design problem throughout the project, adopting aflexible approach that allowed for new and surprising information to continuously emerge. Theteam consistently involved the user in design decision-making in the hope of keeping theirdesign activities in close alignment with the user’s true needs.5.2 Similarities and differences across team perspectivesEach team in this study represented a unique perspective on user interactions that

Thoseintersection domains are pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), content technologicalknowledge (CTK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), and technological pedagogicalcontent knowledge (TPACK). This framework has been assessed multiple times for refinementand clarity.

This work allows us to understand how students’ identitytrajectories are shaped by the culture of engineering through their interactions with faculty. Weused narrative research methods to answer the following research questions: 1. What are students’ perceptions of faculty in engineering? 2. How do students’ perceptions of faculty as helpful or harmful influence identity trajectory?Emergent from the students’ stories was a characterization of specific or general faculty asadversaries or allies. When asked to recall significant interactions with faculty or staff at theirinstitution, often participants would

imposed on the students is that they would devotethemselves completely to K-WIDE for the entire 10 days. What emerged was a visceral experiencethat students still speak about as “one of the most important experiences they had” in college.Given the pilot of K-WIDE in 2012, the authors have had time to deconstruct and better articulatethe goals and objectives of the program. The emergent goal of K-WIDE in 2012 was for studentsto grow in a number of mindsets and attitudes that would enable them to gain the most from theremainder of their time in college and beyond. In tackling a “Wicked Problem”, one that is somultidimensional that the solution cannot come from one domain of practice, students began toexplore how they might interact with the world
