Specifically, this mixed-methods study draws uponundergraduate engineering student interview data which focuses on themes such as motivationsto pursue international experiences, impact of said experiences on their perceptions ofengineering, and the cultural relevance of engineering in general. It also explored the personallyrelevant aspects of their experience. Interviews were then analyzed to investigate global learningoutcomes from the experience as well as aspects of intercultural wonderment. Thus, this studyaims to answer following research questions: 1. How is intercultural wonderment manifested through international experiences? a. Which types

The goal of this paper is to investigate the background of storytelling ineducation and show its effect on student retention of related course material by comparing twosections of a first-semester freshmen course. The results of this preliminary study will providefaculty with an understanding of the relative benefit of engaging students through workexperience storytelling.Storytelling in Education:Telling stories is the oldest form of teaching and learning.1 It has been a method of educatingfrom pre-historic times.

in large-scale engineering classes have turned to using only onlinehomework-based systems such as Pearson’s Mastering, Wiley Plus, and/or McGraw Hill’sConnect to assess student learning. These systems provide content, grading and assessment ofstudent work, and feedback to students while solving problems. Previous research has shownthat students’ value both online and handwritten homework. Even students who disliked onlinehomework found it to be at least somewhat helpful. The current project investigates ifperformance on higher stake (e.g., more heavily weighted in overall grade) activities is betterthan on lower stake activities in a Dynamics class and a General Physics I class.

According to theNational Science Foundation, jobs that involve science or engineering show a low percentage ofemployed African Americans [1]. As of 2015, African Americans that identify with one race are roughly4 percent engineers and 3 percent physical and related scientists.These statistics give rise to the question why; why are URMs not pursuing careers in engineering?BackgroundOld Dominion University (ODU) is recognized as a minority serving institution with a plurality of racesrepresented.

Specifically, women sometimes end up completing less technical work andmore project management work [1, 2, 3]; they are sometimes spoken over in conversations [4, 5];and they are sometimes evaluated by themselves and their peers according to different standardsthan their peers who are men [6, 7, 8, 9].

College Algebra instruction for engineering studentsIn this section, we discuss some tips to revise College Algebra instruction, especially for studentsin the engineering and technology disciplines. The aim of these revisions is to help studentsdevelop critical and mathematical thinking skills that are required in engineering and technologyfields given that the student has access to phone applications and other technology aids formathematical problems.Suggestion 1. Support students to acquire general math knowledge.There are plentiful resources that do the calculation for students. However, to be able to properlymake use of these tools for their needs, students should understand the mathematical languageand identify what they work with. An
