progressing at an accelerated pace in recent years. Most people perceiveAI as creating human-like robots or humanoids, it is more than that. AI is to use neural networktheories to simulate the human thinking processes by computers; to inject the human’s ability toscreening data, provide sound reasoning, to make self-reflection, and self-correction decisions tothe computers. According to TechTarget, artificial intelligence can be broken down into twomain categories: Weak AI (or called Machine Learning category), which is a machine’s ability tobe trained to perform specific tasks. Strong AI (or Deep Learning category) is the machine’sability when equipped with enough cognitive skills, to find solutions to problems on their own.Particular applications

the student perspective and moving beyond traditionalinstitutional reporting begins to elucidate and provide evidence about the “true” engineeringgraduate experience. This increasingly accurate reflection of graduate experiences providesnovel insight into the experiences of students that have been traditionally ignored or unjustifiablylumped in with other students who share the title of graduate student.The initial findings of our qualitative analysis indicate that student perceptions of control and theability to utilize multiple resources to overcome barriers are fundamental to the successfuldevelopment of their identities and motivations. Students’ perceptions of control provide ameans of discerning the difficulty of a given choice or task

We have multiple avenues of inquiry to the PEEPS experiences, such as quarterlycheck-ins (that are also individualized advising sessions), periodic reflections, and a end of theschool year focus group.Therefore, while the PEEPS project enables the cohort members to take certain courses together,study with one another, and socialize together, do they really support each other academicallyand emotionally to make a difference? How do the PEEPS Support Team and PEEPS activitieshelp students, if any? How can we take what we’ve been learning through the PEEPS project

How are problem solving schemas developed and used by students in biomedical engineering? How do these schemas differ for high and low performing students? 2. How do students’ problem solving abilities change during and throughout STEM courses? 3. How are students’ misconceptions related to knowledge retention and their mistakes with connecting different parts in problem schemas? 4. How is a students’ metacognitive

objective measure of the core reasoningskills needed for reflective decision making concerning what to believe or what to do.” [6]Initial Offerings and Course ModificationsThe original concept for the course included a hands-on component using Lego Mindstorms.The original conception also restricted the course to non-engineering majors [8], largely becauseengineering majors were thought to have a considerable advantage working with the LegoMindstorms. The hardware requirement imposed severe constraints on another important coursegoal, online delivery. Ultimately we decided not to implement the hands-on component. Thathad the side benefit of allowing us to open the course to all majors, including engineeringmajors. The course discussion boards have

IntroductionAlthough there are many standardized questionnaires used to assess students’ self-regulatorybehavior and motivation to learn, the MSLQ is one of the more widely used in general educationresearch [1, 2, 3]. The MSLQ is a self-report instrument specifically designed to assess students'motivational orientations and their use of different learning strategies. . By focusing on the rolesof both motivation and cognition during learning, the MSLQ reflects the research on self-regulated learning, which emphasizes the interface between motivation and cognition [4, 5].Prior research using the MSLQ has found relationships between constructs on its motivationalsubscales such as: intrinsic goals, extrinsic goals, task value, control of learning beliefs, self

addressing students’ metacognitive skills and the ability to self-regulate their learning. To that end, the instructor began the semester with a reflective exercisethat asked students to read Robert Leamson’s (2002) essay “Learning (Your First Job),”comment online about their impressions of the article, and be prepared to discuss in class. Thereflective comments from students regarding this essay were revealing: “These are all things thatwere not explicitly obvious to me as a student and I would have very much liked to have readthis as a freshman.” This piece is especially important as we believe it made an importantdifference in students’ capacity to persevere in this class.The difference in DFW outcomes between the two engineering courses for this

At the beginning of each class, the instructor poses each ofthe Conceptual Questions from the pre-work assessment to the class, takes a “vote” on it, andthen leads a discussion on the different answers and approaches. These discussions encouragestudents to reflect on the reasoning behind their misconceptions and how it relates to thereasoning behind the actual solutions. Namely, the students and the instructor discuss why some(incorrect) answers appeared attractive and seemed right, and ultimately what is (or should be)the reasoning behind choosing the one correct answer. However, these interactive discussions are rather brief, taking just a very small portion of the class, to enable the other components ofinstruction

The results from only the Spring 2016 semester shows thatdividing the course material and assessing the students by three Midterms instead of twoMidterms helped to reach the study objective.

I believe that Leslie desired studentswork with data from empirical observation and withheld giving away the steps because Lesliethinks learning happens when students construct understandings from experiences,communication, and reflection, indicating a constructivist learning stance. A constructivist stanceis made up of many smaller reasoning resources including perhaps, “knowledge is constructednot given” and others. Leslie

as they apply to K-12 education. In 2013, the Next Generation Science Standards reflected the growing interest in K-12 engineering by integrating it with the science curriculum. In contrast to the prior standards, the NGSS explicitly included engineering as a foundational component of the curriculum, with engineering concepts included in the requirements for each grade level. In fact, the final NGSS document body included over three hundred uses of the word engineering. Taking advantage of recent research into science learning, the standards also propose a new view of teaching science. Whereas the earlier standards heavily emphasized science content knowledge, the new standards took a more holistic view of science. Science education
