Coding of data was conducted in a first round of open coding, usinggerund codes to describe mechanisms of identity development and contextual codes to describeelements of faculty development environments. Author B and Author C coded the data in thisphase with peer debriefing after each code was applied to build strong consensus on which codeswere emerging from the data and to ensure interrater reliability moving forward. A second roundof coding was then conducted with the final set of codes to apply them to the full dataset.Axial coding was begun in a third round to form an initial framework for this paper.

Raw scores from Gradescope are processed further to produce these plots visible in the dashboard that are useful to track individual student’s progress across individual requirements. If the class statistics are useful for overall class adjustments, these bar charts are helpful to identify specific students who need further support and to track the impact of such personalized interventions across the semester. • Radial Plots (A, B, and C): Finally, the radial plots on the bottom part of the

Although there was a slightdifference between the means of the traditional (1.9 ± 0.2, standard error [s.e.]) and generative(2.6 ± 0.2, s.e.), there was no significant effect of learning method on the performance scores (p= 0.11). There was a significant effect of grader (p < 0.0005). As seen in Figure 1, two of thegraders in the F’21 semester (B and C) graded the calculations assignment significantly lowerthan grader D in the F’22 semester.

The self-study reports on how the IRE5-Point grading scale has been implemented in each of the three areas of learning: design,technical, and professionalism. The three pillars of equitable grading from Feldman’s bookGrading for Equity [5] will be used as a framework for the self-study.The three pillars of equitable grading are accuracy, bias resistance, and growth mindset.Accuracy is the ability of

et al[12] found that 50% of students starting in precalculus left engineering and this decreased to 21% when students started in calculus. They also found that the initial course grade had an impacton retention. The University in the study did not offer mathematics courses below precalculusfor the engineering program. Budny et al [14] found that GPA in the first semester was a strongpredictor of retention in the engineering curriculum. Students receiving an A in Precalculuswere found to be as likely to persist in engineering as students with a B in Calculus 1 or a C inCalculus 2 as an initial mathematics course. They recommend careful placement into a firstmath course so that students earn what they perceive to be an acceptable grade

Following the lead from its industry partners, theUniversity of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering conducted a market analysis in 2021 todetermine the current and future trends in these growing areas of technology. This analysis indicated astrong need for a technology-focused program in robotics and automation to support local industries.More specifically, this analysis showed that: (a) there is a lack of structured training programs to createskilled professionals for local companies in their projected growth, and (b) Nebraska’s local industriescould benefit from a degree/training program that focuses on

The steps of theGROW Model include: a) establishing a goal; b) evaluating the current reality (what ishappening now and what are the effects or results?); c) exploring options and obstacles (whatelse could you do? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each option?); and d)establishing a will or a way to move forward.Each coach met with a student in one-on-one sessions 4 to 5 times during the semester. Duringeach coaching session, the student completed a form detailing the challenges faced and theprogress made in seeking academic improvements. Each student established a SMART academicgoal, which was tracked throughout the semester.This presentation
