two years at Georgetown University her interest in exposing and helping minority students navigate their STEM careers flourished as she accepted her first adjunct position, affording her the opportunity to teach and advise undergraduate and graduate level students. Serving as an instructor and researcher, exposed her to a number of wellestablished and emerging educational practices that related to fostering students’ academic achievements, interest, and professional development. It was during this time that she decided to turn her sights completely to diver- sity and inclusion issues within STEM education and embark on a career that would allow her to make a meaningful contribution on diversifying the scientific

This is usually achieved throughstructured laboratory-based courses and project-based learning courses throughout theircurriculum. In the EET program at Kennesaw State University, the Capstone Design courseexperience was offered through a menu of project-based senior design courses that students gotto choose from based on their specific electrical areas of interest. This served the program wellfor several years but did not always offer the students a uniform design experience as thatdepended on the instructor(s) teaching those classes in a given semester. As a result, the EETfaculty concluded that in order to offer a more uniform experience to each cohort of students, itwas best

ParticipatesAll students graduating with a four-year degree from Ward College of Technology at theUniversity of Hartford must take EN 481, Advanced Technical Communication.Generally, students may take the class when they are in the last semester of their junioryear or any time in their senior year or when they have the equivalent number of creditsso that they are competent in their major field of study. Because of both the requirednature of the class and the technical competency of the students, the capstone project ispart of the curriculum of that class. As the assignment sheet states, the hope is that “theproject should demonstrate learning achieved in all . . . work here at the University.”4Because the class is required of all Ward students, the class

Despite the many possible consequences of a cyber-attack, it’s important to appreciate that not all technical workers need to be cybersecurity experts.Engineering technicians, for example, typically work to keep equipment running properly tomaintain operations in various facilities. These technicians may also set up and install newequipment or work in research and product development areas side-by-side with engineers ortechnologists. In order to keep production activities “going,” what skills do operation technology(OT) technicians typically need to contribute to the cybersecurity of their workplace in theirefforts to keep company operations going?This paper explores the typical hierarchy of cybersecurity in manufacturing and

Following other scholarship in engineering education research on social capital [15]we focus on social capital at the individual level [16]. Each student brings with them a socialnetwork to their undergraduate studies, although the extent to which that network is equipped tosupport them through their engineering studies might be variable [17].

24.815.12 Figure 6. Studio integration project.Limitations of the StudyTwo limitations in the study inhibit making broad generalizations about the findings. First, theconvenience sampling permitted only a small sample size of thirty-one total students. Thelimitations do not influence replication, but do inhibit generalizing to larger populations. Second,two potentially intervening variables are student fatigue and guessing that researchers shouldaddress.[27] The rigorous demands imposed by the architectural design studios induce fatigue.The studio environment sometimes recognizes the lack of sleep as a badge of honor amongst thestudents. To minimize fatigue, the exams were not scheduled proximate to major studio

Therefore, when students are in their flipped classroom, the time can be dedicated to amore meaningful exchange with the instructor and higher levels of learning can be achievedthrough individual or group problem based learning activities.Interest in flipped classrooms has been increasing over the last several years. The use of flippedclassrooms has also sparked a significant amount of research. The authors of [2] identifiedtwenty-four different studies related to flipped
