Prior physical activity, even light walking, in some casesappears to have converted to sedentary behavior; as one student remarked, “[b]efore [the]pandemic I [was] a very active person [who] like[d] to move around,” but “since the quarantinehappen[ed] I mostly or [sic] lie down all day.” Sedentary behavior over time can have significanthealth consequences, including an increased risk of hypertension and diabetes mellitus [20]. Onthe other hand, some students have been able to find opportunities to use their time to improvetheir physical fitness

While this approach may provide alaboratory experience, the research experience is greatly dependent on the research laboratoryand the research advisor. The significant increase in expected students performingundergraduate honors research also suggests that a group mentoring approach may be required inorder not to require additional time from the research mentors.

Was there a consequentialaction from the reports?”B. Being Empathetic and Having The Right Mind Frame “A successful educator sees learning through the eyes of the students.”Empathetic teaching focuses on getting feedback about what the student does and does not knowand work backward from that. In this regard, Hattie has defined ten mind frames for educatorsdescribing how effective instructors think about feedback and formative assessment [37] (a sum-mary is presented in Table I). It is important for the educators to train their students on receivingand providing constructive feedback

Engineering Design (EI-100) is a first-semester 3 credit required course for everyengineering program of Universidad de las Américas Puebla (UDLAP). Course content andclassroom activities are divided into three, two-hour sessions (Modeling, Concepts, andLaboratory) per week. Students have six different EI-100 facilitators (an instructor and teachingassistant for each session). UDLAP’s engineering students have in EI-100 a great opportunity fora multidisciplinary collaborative experience. EI-100 is a team-taught course that uses active,collaborative and cooperative learning, which has been a major player in UDLAP’s efforts ofengineering education reform since 2001. However, EI-100 could be improved taking intoaccount technological advances and recent

ability).Results "Validity refers to the degree to which evidence and theory support the interpretation oftest scores entailed by proposed uses of tests" [55]. Evaluating validity requires developingsound scientific evidence for judging the interpretability of the instrument’s results andsubsequent decision-making based on this evidence [55, 56]. There are a variety of types ofevidence that may be used to validate an instrument, depending on the proposed interpretationand use of the resulting scale scores [55, 57]. For this paper we focused on aspects of validitythat were addressed through the scale development process. The results are organized based onthe type of validity examined: a) content validity, b) structural or construct validity
