, and skillsengineers value and possess [7]. The development of these habits of mind and sociotechnicalthinking could influence how engineers act and perform in the workforce. Lucas and Hansenportray habits of mind as those that are “capable of development” via practice, repetition, andeffort [8]. They list six different habits of mind for engineers: systems-thinking, problem finding,visualizing, improving, creative problem-solving, and adapting, all of which value both the socialand the technical. Other research accentuates habits of mind in terms of systems thinking,innovation, adaptations and improvements, socio-cultural and ethical considerations,communication, collaboration, and sociotechnical integration [2]. Thus, the engineering habits

Looking at the world in different ways, exploring new realms of thought, and drawing upon indigenous knowledge and ways of learning are all crucial to helping NSF stay at the cutting edge of science.

, Large language models, Artificial intelligence, Machinelearning, Project-based learning, Teamwork, Technology in the classroom IntroductionIn every generation, software engineering education must adapt to technological innovations. Inour generation, we must respond to large language models (LLMs). LLMs are machine learningmodels (typically with billions of parameters) that are trained on vast amounts of data [1]. Theyare known for their ability to generate human-like text and can be used in a variety of tasks suchas code synthesis, conditional text generation, and mathematical reasoning [1], [2]. Due to theirstrong performance on a variety of tasks, LLMs have found diverse uses in both academia

When it comes to physical and mental disabilities,there needs to be a more specific standard and more customization and options for students tochoose from.Practice ImplicationsWhen designing the inclusive classroom, these factors should be kept in mind: 1.
