Universities (AACU), employersprioritized critical thinking, written communication, teamwork, and information literacy skills in theirnew hires [1]. However, recent graduates consistently rate their preparedness in these skills higherthan their employers do [1]; the largest gaps were found in critical thinking, communication, andinformation literacy. Project-based learning (PBL) is widely recognized as a valuable educational toolbecause it requires self-directed learning, communication, and teamwork [2], allowing students toacquire many of the very skills deemed most valuable in the professional world. It has been shownthat knowledge gained by working through ill-structured problems is deeper, more transferable, and isretained better [3]. While all

Theavailability of such programs is one step toward meeting industry demands for highly trained science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) professionals, which are growing at a rate not supported bycurrent post-secondary student enrollments [2, 4]. Pre-college efforts to excite students about possiblecareers in STEM have been made primarily in isolation from one another, including professionaldevelopment designed to prepare and train teachers to successfully implement a program and encouragestudent participation.The e4usa+FIRST program is an unprecedented effort that

Workers suffering from exposure to the cold can experience thermaldiscomfort, increased strain, decreased performance, and cold-related diseases and injuries suchas frostbite and hypothermia. It affects people in a long list of industries. In -20°F temperatures, astrong wind can make it feel closer to -55°F, and frostbite can happen within 5 minutes [2]. In coldweather, our bodies constrict the blood vessels that keep our extremities warm and redirect thatblood flow to the core to keep our vital organs warm. As a result, our hands and feet get cold moreeasily and are more susceptible to frostbite, which results in the hardening of the skin.One common reason for cold hands is inadequate

Instructors need to helpstudents become cognizant of their teamwork skills, such as conflict resolution, scrum values, andcultural self-awareness. In this research paper, we intend to understand the perception of studentsenrolled in a sophomore-level system's course regarding conflict resolution skills, scrum values,and cultural self-awareness. We also want to understand how the perception of these values isrelated to one another. In the light of this study, we want to answer the following research questions(1) How do students' reported conflict management skills relate to their reported scrum values?

reviewExperiential learning, or Experience Based Learning (EBL), as a pedagogy is well establishedand dates to the early 20th century and can be attributed as a basis for “active learning” [1].Considering the Index of Learning Styles (ILS) [2] as applied to Construction Students, they tendtowards active, sensing, visual and sequential learning [3] and [4]. Another way to express thedifference between learning styles may be made by using the definition of their major program.Students who enter Engineering Technology (ET) programs may be more interested in “broadlydefined problems” versus Engineering programs which may provide “complex engineeringproblems” [5]. From this perspective, it appears that hands-on, active learning or broadly definedengineering

However, student teams often struggle to identify and address problems within thegroup. Student teams need additional assistance with group processing—the act of reviewingmembers’ actions that were helpful or detrimental to achieving team objectives and determiningwhich efforts to stop, start or continue [1]. Given the importance of group processing in ensuringeffective cooperative learning, educators must understand and deploy methods to encourage thedevelopment of this critical skill

In research labs, students can extend and apply content they learn inclass and pursue independent lines of inquiry. We ask whether engaging in research experiencescan therefore support and promote students’ curiosity. Eight undergraduate engineering studentsworking in research labs participated in a semi-structured interview about their research andclass experiences. These interviews were coded for themes related to uncertainty and curiosity.This paper specifically investigates causes of students’ curiosity and their responses touncertainty.

Althoughqualitative research is critical, it can be extremely time consuming. A common practice inanalyzing qualitative data is to develop a coding scheme or framework to analyze data, trainresearch assistants (RAs) to apply the framework, ensure sufficient inter-rater reliability, andthen have RAs analyze the data [1-3].
