%; data included in this study had a minimum of 55% and a maximum of 100%.For this study, we were interested in investigating the perception that an instructorteaching several sections of the same course in a given semester gets better as they presentthe material from one section to the next. With this in mind, we requested first-yearengineering faculty who teach several sections of the same course each semester to providespecific data from their TRACE evaluations. All classes considered in this study were first-year engineering courses with the same content. Both Full and Split Cornerstone sectionswere included in the data. Honors sections were removed and their data was not includedin this study because grades and other data were significant

Interestingly, many students initially overlooked or at least undervalued the fact that music and other arts have very rich engineering applications; thus the goal of our work is to broaden students’ perspectives and inspire them to be open-minded as they look for innovative ways to apply their engineering skills.

wellness initiatives oncollege campuses, especially directed towards STEM and engineering majors due to thecompetitive culture and negative impact COVID-19 had on the mental health of undergraduatestudents as a whole [5].One solution to this lack of mental health care in undergraduate engineering programs is througha required wellness course. Many studies have found required wellness courses to increasehealthy decision-making, increase exercise, and decrease self-reported levels of stress [6].Implementing an evidence-based wellness course has shown evidence to maintain higher levelsof resiliency and adaptive skills for undergraduate students at the three-month mark [7].Additionally, the utilization of a course with the integration of mindfulness

He further asserted that instructional materials have not traditionally beenof much use in helping students overcome these difficulties. The courses described in this paperwere designed with these very issues in mind. The instructional strategies used in these courseswere developed, in part, to aid students in eliciting and confronting their misconceptions byproviding students with “non-traditional

Recognizingthat it is inappropriate to give the same test to all students, we will give exams at two differentlevels in 2006. Furthermore, we will prepare a study guide that will be posted on the TCFFHRCwebsite, and we will encourage teachers to focus on challenging their students by assignmentsand tests that require students to integrate knowledge as an everyday exercise.References1.
