, United Kingdom,China, Australia, France, Germany, Mexico, Netherlands, Spain, Russia, Finland, India, Japan,Sweden, and New Zealand are the main host nations for international students. Of these nations,the U.S. has experienced a decline in the number of international students, yet it remains by farthe top host nation. The international student population plays an important role in the U.S.because of the unique assets they bring into the classrooms by providing a variety of insightsbased on their earlier academic and life experiences in their home countries [1], [3], [4].Additionally, international students are major contributors to the U.S. economy. According toNAFSA Economy Tool [5], international students contributed $39 billion to the U.S

Hoke found that “Ultimately, theethical codes surveyed … are far more striking in their similarities than in their differences.”15 The Delaware DAPE, as an instrumentality of the state charged with regulating the practice ofengineering within the State of Delaware, and its sister jurisdictional engineering licensingboards must focus on their duty to promote a no-less-than adequate supply of qualified engineerswho will, through their practice of engineering, protect the health, safety, and welfare of thepublic.

The peer tutor then met with theinstructor at least 2-3 days prior to the class session to go over the in-class assignment solutionand make sure the peer tutor understood how to complete the assignment, as well as discusspossible “sticking points” where students make common mistakes or get stuck.Evaluation of Addition of In-Class Peer TutoringTo evaluate whether ICPT was beneficial to students and increased use of peer tutors, we hadstudents fill out a survey. Students were asked to rate on a 1-5 Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree,2 = disagree, 3 = neutral, 4 = agree, 5 = strongly agree) the following survey questions: 1.

practice, thispaper seeks to provide another vector of connection between the two areas, by explicitlyconsidering how practices originating from gender and sexual diversity may have implicationsfor more “technical” engineering education.Within engineering education, this work builds upon the insights generated by previous scholarsanalyzing the experiences of queer students and faculty in engineering educational contexts. Forexample, Leyva, Massa, and Battey’s 2016 literature review [21] demonstrated how thesocial/technical divide and its resulting division of labor that Wendy Faulkner had previouslyidentified as influential in structuring womens’ experiences [22] similarly affects the experiencesof LGBTQ+ engineers.

her theory of in/authenticity through a study of gender roles withinengineering workplaces [2], [3]. Faulkner [2], [3] first used the term “gender inauthenticity” todescribe the engineering dualities. Her theory examined the division of engineering into“technical” and “social” realms, where the technical was seen as “real” engineering.Stereotypically men were expected to engage in the technical realm, while women were expectedto engage more with the social realm. Faulkner continued this research and expanded on genderin/authenticity in later work [2], [3], [25], [26]. Within many engineering firms she discoveredthat certain engineering roles were stereotypically gendered (e.g. technical work for men;personal interactions for women). Thus
synchronous, cohort-based nature of our program provides several unique opportunities forproject instruction, collaboration, and assessment. All students enrolled in the project course attendsynchronous lectures. Over the two semesters, lectures covering topics such as project definition,how to give a presentation, how to prepare a technical document, and data analysis are presented.Each student team is advised by the course instructor and team progress is assessed during weeklyvideo conferences in which students describe implementation challenges, discuss design and im-plementation progress, and perform brief demonstrations. All students are expected to participatein the advising sessions. Students may be co-located or in different locations. In

Faculty range from researchintensive (1-1) to teaching intensive (3-3) course loads. In order to ensure equality across theboard, teaching loads were adjusted to be based on the number of credits taught and not thenumber of courses taught.
