concerned the selection of panel experts, a critical element in the success of any Delphistudy. In particular, many experts who were approached to take part in the study declinedparticipation. This was particularly true for problem analysis, where only 15 of the 32 expertswho were contacted, agreed to take part in the project. The expert pool consists of a very busygroup of (primarily) faculty members, with many competing commitments. Another issue relatedto expert selection concerned the diversity of the panel. Although representativeness is notnecessarily important for Delphi samples 20, some degree of heterogeneity is recommended. Thisis particularly important in the development of a universal rubric.

We also give a generaldescription of Pengelley’s method that explains how it may be applied to many courses (not justmathematics courses), discuss observations from our online classrooms, and discuss the issue ofacademic integrity, which is a concern for many instructors.A general description of Pengelley’s methodAlthough Pengelley developed his teaching method for mathematics courses, we believe it issuitable for courses on a variety of subjects, notably in STEM. In particular, we believePengelley’s method is suitable for courses that meet the following conditions: 1.

But for graduate students coming from undergraduateinstitutions in other countries, we can neither be sure that they have received any professionalethics instruction at the undergraduate level, nor that they are familiar with the particularconceptions of the engineering profession and of professional ethics in this country.This is not of great concern for those graduate students who return to their countries of origin topursue their careers. But 45% of the approximately 140,000 engineering graduate students in theU.S. are international students, and up to two thirds of those have plans to stay in the UnitedStates to

Service learning engages projects that serve thecommunity and build their social and academic capacities. Service learning was based offthe views of John Dewey, a philosopher and educator who advanced the concept that activestudent involvement in learning, insisted that this is an essential element in effectiveeducation. He viewed the community as an integral component of educational experiencesfor both enhancing a student’s education and for developing future societies. The need forengaged learning and an implementation of technology will further develop training forstudents in technological discipline, and will fulfill a societal

, the education arm of the ACI proposesnew federal support to improve the quality of math, science, and technological education in K-12schools.Recent data confirm that teaching is not an easy profession: A new study from the NationalScience Teachers Association, for example, shows that for the past 10 years 50% of teachersleave teaching within their first 5 years if trained traditionally and 80% if they obtain noalternative certifications. Often this is due to the frustration new teachers experience whenstudents show little interest in learning and the teacher has little practical experience with theapplications of science and mathematics that could help to motivate and even inspire students.Yet teaching remains a source of fulfillment and

Learning and doingSTEM that is relevant to the daily lives and concerns of K-12 students and their communities arekey to broadening the participation and the future workforce in STEM [5]. Thus, preparing anddeveloping K-12 STEM teachers with culturally responsive teaching (CRT) competencies isessential.

Third, to outline the current limitations and concerns surrounding adaptive systems.Engineering leaders and instructors can then determine if their pedagogical context is amenableto deploying these systems, and education researchers can navigate the current systems’characteristics to find areas where to make impactful contributions.The Premise of Adaptive LearningChanging what a single learner – as opposed to a whole class – experiences while learning isneither a new goal for educators, nor an unrealized method. After all, a teacher providingstudent-specific feedback or a teaching
team considers it the perfect venuefor bringing these dilemmas to the forefront. Identifying and unpacking the dilemmas requiresthe community to look with a wider and more critical lens on practices that focus on a narrowerspecific purpose. Questions emerge that bring to light tricky overlapping priorities: What wouldit mean to support gender non-binary students in a program structured around the male-femalebinary? How do programs focused on a cohort community welcome transfer and non-traditionalstudents? We discuss these and other orienting questions, grounded in specific examples fromco-curricular practice, in order to collectively imagine new possibilities and call for greatercritical awareness of the issues
society [2]. Wearable technology devices have flourishedrecently due to technological advancements, rapidly expanding entrepreneurial activity and consumerinterest [3]. Wearable technology companies and individuals create new products for fashion, sports,lifestyle, computing and health industries. Devices like the Apple Watch, Fitbit, and virtual/augmentedreality devices like the Apple Vision Pro or Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses are well known and haveattracted much consumer and investor interest. These consumer technologies can help motivate andprovide a real-world perspective to educational experiences [4]. Engineering students rarely experiencethe constraints and concerns of product development at any point in a traditional curriculum, even
concerns among educators and institutions, primarily deal-ing with plagiarism [28], renegotiating the role of instructors [29], and ethical concerns, forexample around using student data [30]. These tensions have led researchers to beseech de-velopers to create solutions that speak to systemic barriers [31], employ transparent method-ologies [32], and co-design with educators [33]. In recent research in EE, the issues discussedabove are prevalent along with calls for EE programs to ensure that their graduates havethe technical skills to develop products and processes embedded in complex systems thatwork seamlessly [34]. Further, these systems must be developed with sustainable mindsetsand use ethical design methodologies [35]. However, such

The program was anticipated to provide a streamlined academicpathway for transfer students from 2-year programs within South Carolina into ClemsonUniversity, and provide programming to aid their academic success and social integration. Toachieve this, the faculty intended to solidify cohorts of students at two community/technicalcolleges (Spartanburg Community College and Trident Technical College) and then support thatcohort as they transitioned together into Clemson University. To provide the students in thecohorts with a shared experience, all scholarship recipients at

The goal of the analysiswas to understand the lived engineering experiences of the students and the meaning found inthese experiences within the context of the project’s focus on identity and motivation. An IPAapproach allows connections between graduate experiences and student affective domain traitsthat are complex and may not be readily visible to students.
