are three lectures and one laboratory session per week. The classroom follows a blendedformat where the students have to come prepared for the class by watching pre-recorded videosand taking a quiz due before class. It begins with reviewing the quiz followed by interactiveproblem-solving. The entire class works as a single group while the instructor asks specificquestions and triggers guided discussion leading to problem-solving.Towards the goal of improved comprehension and retention, a zero-credit laboratory session isintroduced to this course in Fall 2019 at Angelo State University. The lab session was a “self-assessment problem solving” session where students are challenged with a random problem onthe concepts covered in the past week to

Some of its features have been previously presented at ASEE [4, 23, 15].Its adoption has led to measurable and statistically significant improvements in learningoutcomes [5] and large scale studies of the importance of UDL for engineering students withand without disabilities, for example, [2, 14]. ClassTranscribe was created at the University ofIllinois Urbana-Champaign and is used as one of the instruction tools in engineering coursesacross multiple disciplines. Using UDL principles, ClassTranscribe provides students withan accessible interface including accurate captioning, caption search, and lectures deliveredin video and text-based modalities

Another literature survey focused on ASEE publications noted that therewas a significant lack of research focusing on disability as an identity and on the experiences ofstudents with disabilities in engineering education [3].Several works have explored the stigma, social exclusion, systemic marginalization, devaluation,and feelings of “otherness” experienced by students with disabilities in engineering education[4], [5]. These consequences were attributed to a variety of reasons, including the lack of rolemodels with disabilities, educators’ misconceptions about the
