final rehearsal sessionwhere the teams received feedback from other students and the instructor before their finalpresentation to the invited external audience.Oral presentation was one of the alternative assignments that Lepek and Stock (2011)incorporated in their chemical engineering laboratory sequence. Students were evaluated basedon criteria such as time management, body language of the presenters, slides quality, technicalcontent, and the ability to engage with the audience and answer their questions.VideoIt is a well-known fact that visualization is an effective tool for teaching engineering topics.Among visual teaching aids, training videos are most efficient as they can provide real-worldexamples and applications, and explain how

. ● Renewable Energy education towards integration in traditional powering grids.These technical areas also allow one to discuss two delivery methods that use software and aphysical setup. Our Renewable Energy courses best emphasize the application of physical systems,while our Mechatronic courses best show the use of simulation software for SustainableEngineering Education.Mechatronic Education. Resources for SAET’s mechatronic laboratory were previouslycharacterized as physical training systems and software enabling process simulation [11].Regarding the sustainable engineering learning objectives, both choices provide excellentresources. However, the fundamental benefit of the software-based method is that it is bothaffordable and accessible to

Commonly, the limiting factors to conducting a product dissection is the cost of the product,the laboratory/institute constrains on space and safety, and the handling of the waste once thedissection of the product has occurred [5,6]. Some of these issues can be addressed by obtainingsmall items that are meant to be assembled and disassembled multiple times. However

following academic years, whilesatisfaction with the teacher and teaching materials rose each year [12]. Again, more detailedanalysis of student perceptions was not included [12]. Other studies focused on measures of academic performance across formats. Thepreviously mentioned study involving freshman mathematics students found that grades weresignificantly higher for female students from underrepresented minority groups taking the coursein virtual format and were not significantly different for all other groups [9]. The civilengineering program study found that performance varied by level, with scores of level 1students decreasing over the three years of the study and scores for level 3 students increasingover that same time interval [12

hours per week for three months on this program. Most of thistime was dedicated to asynchronous, independent interaction with the online module contentand developing their teaching products. The instructional coach led the 80 minute weeklysynchronous CoP for each module. The instructional coach also visited the GTAs in theirteaching environments where possible and used this experience to contextualize the weeklyCoP module meetings. The GTAs had the opportunity to discuss their questions, observations,and experiences from the modules and their teaching or laboratory practices, relating them tothe module topics during the CoP meetings. Recognizing the necessity of the instructionalcoach sharing their experience and expertise during the weekly in

experiences and observations, this paper delves into crucial strate-gies for success in teaching, research, and service, offering essential principles to guide new facultymembers toward a successful start in academia. The paper discusses strategies for teaching acrossvarious undergraduate levels, establishing and cultivating research groups within undergraduate-focused programs, and actively engaging in service roles within the academic community. Addi-tionally, it emphasizes the importance of advising, mentorship, self-care, and achieving work-lifebalance, particularly with regard to the unique experiences and challenges faced by female facultymembers. By providing practical tools, resources, and best practices, this paper aims to empowernew faculty

. Teaching gives us the opportunity totouch many lives, but to a limited depth for a limited period of time. As mentors, we becomemore deeply involved in the careers and lives of our students, cultivating professionalrelationships and, often, lifelong friendships. Just as we devote time to becoming a betterteacher, we should also avail ourselves of the collective wisdom of outstanding mentors. Thispaper has distilled the advice of more than a dozen successful faculty members and facultydevelopers on a wide range of topics related to recruiting students and helping those studentssucceed in research.7.

. Second,engineering researchers can narrowly isolate experimental variables and follow uniform andwidely-accepted laboratory testing standards. The results from engineering research are well-defined and replicable, and proposed models can be validated. Unlike engineering research,EER typically includes a broad range of uncontrollable confounding variables and a lack ofspecificity and guidance in the selection of appropriate theoretical frameworks and analyticalmethods [5,6].Since engineering faculty are often the initiators of EER studies, it is logical that faculty whoalready teach engineering courses and conduct engineering research may be inclined to pursueEER opportunities. Their motivation may be to either complement their ongoing

resourcesavailable to support their work goals. This might include having adequate staff support to allowfaculty to excel in their teaching and scholarship work: The staff critical from every perspective. They support … the advising side; we have laboratory facilities where staff are critical in making sure that the facilities are up and running and information technology that everything is working the way it should. (Female faculty member, doctoral university)On the other hand, tight budgets or some management decisions left faculty feeling frustrated andunable to do their jobs in a way that was satisfying for pursuing their autonomy: So it’s a direct result of having resources cut and creating an almost toxic
