American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) recently reaffirmed its commitment todiversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to support engineering students and faculty from allbackgrounds. The statement powerfully stated that diverse backgrounds and experiences shouldbe seen as a source of strength and growth rather than something that separates us. However, DEIis not seen as simply a matter of recruiting more students from underrepresented groups; in orderto promote DEI, systemic barriers must be eliminated [2]. One of these barriers is the way thatengineering programs grade students. Programs no longer need to “weed out” students; rather,they need to support as many students as possible to develop the large number of engineers thatour society

This course is primarily taken by undergraduateengineering students, and it is required for their degrees. The course covers typical CS1 topicssuch as variables, plotting data, conditionals, loops, functions, string manipulation, arrays, fileI/O, etc. and the programming language is MATLAB.

An expert teacher looking over the shoulder of a student would give just the right amountof help or hints; too much hinting gives away the solution which deprives the student of theproductive struggle that is needed for learning new concepts.
