These skills include, but arenot limited to, perspective-taking, empathy, and maintaining positive cross-racial relationships.This study took place over two years and included two cohorts of students, totaling over 2,500students, during the study researchers explored a connection between youths’ participation in artsprogramming and their ability to display critical reflection. The authors explain they foundincreased participation in arts programming led to growth in critical reflection and action, whatFreire calls critical praxis, for non-white youth.

outcomes and course grades.High engagement also encourages deeper learning to take place [4]. "Deep" learning occurswhen students focus not only on surface-level content knowledge (e.g., definitions), butunderstanding and reflecting on how content relates to other ideas, and integrating concepts inreal world applications. Students who engage in deep learning retain more information, and earnhigher course grades [5],[6],[7],[8],[9],[10],[11].A number of factors contribute to high or low levels of student engagement. For example,innovative courses that employ interactive forms of learning are associated with increasedengagement [12]. Teaching quality [13] and perceived workload [14] also have a direct impacton engagement.The ability to measure

The first isutilizing individual projects where students collaboratively support each other’s projects (fromideation to implementation). The second is the use of static, responsive, and teleconference- basedvideo submissions for project check-ins, reports, and design reviews.

a CCD camera.One laser beam will have interacted with an object to be studied, and the other will serve as areference, unaffected by the presence of the object. Typically, the use of a numericalcomputation to “reconstruct” the electric field at the location of the object is required in order todisplay an image of the object on a computer screen, but we have avoided this step by choosingimage-plane holography. Here, a lens is used to cast a (real) image of the object directly onto acamera, and an interference pattern that modulates the image can be read off without anycomputation and used to determine the phase of light reflecting from the object.

While many institutions have employeradvisors, few compare these stakeholders’ feedback to mandated state curriculum content toactual classroom content. Guided by the research question “to what degree does the Florida AMCurriculum Frameworks reflect the needs of AM employers,” we compared the State of Florida’smandated AM two-year program curriculum to AM employer demands expressed in jobpostings.

Cre-ativity had the highest average score among the CS respondents, followed by Athletics comingup afterwards.

Some of themajor themes emerging from this survey are summarized below: ● Preparation time: The amount of time ECX presenters spent preparing for ECX varied but the most common amount of time spent preparing individually for the session was 4-8 hours, with another 4-8 hours coordinating and practicing with their panel. Several ECX facilitators indicated that the sessions should be delivered more than once, since the time invested in preparing the material was significant for a single delivery.
