These results are expected to illuminate the influence of luck versus true understandingduring the exam.Introduction Concept inventories have been around for many years now. As their title suggests, they testone’s understanding of concepts, and require no calculations. They can be considered as a way tounderstand a person’s thinking process. Concept inventories have been developed for Physics, [1],Statics [2], [3], Dynamics [4] , Strength of Materials [5], Heat Transfer [6] and many other statistics,engineering and/or physics topics [7].

Thispaper describes the survey results conducted at a U15 research institution in Canada askingengineering faculty about their research data sharing practices and preferences. The purpose ofthe survey was to answer the following questions: 1. How well prepared are engineeringresearchers for data deposit, 2. Are engineering researchers willing to share their data, and 3.What barriers exist for sharing engineering data? Results demonstrate knowledge of andacceptance of open access (OA) practices but when it comes to data, engineering researchers aremore reluctant and less prepared to share their data widely and may need guidance on RDM bestpractices

The focus of signals and systems for Biomedical Engineering (BME) is on modeling andanalysis of physiological signals, which are typically not periodic and are not alwayspredictable. This presents a unique educational opportunity in that BME students get to workwith their own physiological signals. In this way, they can relate the concepts and models tohow their own bodies operate as they analyze their blood pressure, heart rhythms (ECG), pulseoximetry (PPG), muscle stimulation (EMG), brain activation (EEG), and other relevant signals.MotivationSignals and

When aligned with instructional goals, student-created stories capture their attention andemotional interests while providing instructors a concrete and memorable insight into theirstudents’ learning [2, 3]. Stories also facilitate student learning through engagement, higher orderthinking, and elaboration [4, 5]. Besides using the stories to promote technological literacy [6],stories help students make meaning of their own experiences, building self-awareness

In 2005,the results of a survey of first-year programs showed that over 70% of the response had sometype of freshman dedicated course either in their department or by the college. Over half of theresponses had a FYE program for all students entering the college of engineering [1]. Part of thiswas attributed to a resurgence of emphasizing engineering design. Froyd et al. in 2012 [2]discussed five major shifts in engineering education. The first shift was switching from practicalengineering to more theoretical and analytical, which occurred in response to World War II. Inthe 1990s, engineering education started switching back to an emphasis on engineering designwhich still holds true today.A

)IntroductionLabor market indicators predict continued growth of well-paid employment in science andengineering[1], but evidence suggests lower readiness among rural students for jobs in these fields.Rural students are now graduating at rates comparable to their urban and suburban peers, butcontinue to fall behind in pursuing postsecondary education, including in engineering[2]. Multiplestudies indicate that these differences begin long before individuals enter the workforce and arebased in large part on the students’ sense of belonging in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM)[3-4]. Evidence points to the positive role that an equitable learningenvironment (ELE) can play in secondary classrooms to ensure that all students, particularly

Accreditation of undergraduate degree programsin engineering, such as by ABET, currently requires programs to demonstrate students’ ability to“identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles ofengineering, science, and mathematics”[1].
