an interdisciplinary group. The Civil Engineering professors at theuniversity reviewed the students´ applications. They selected a team of six members: three civilengineering juniors, a first-year student, an architecture student, and a graphic design student.The team also had the participation of a faculty advisor and a weekly meeting of consultants forquestions. The team had three weeks to develop the idea and prepare a solution, from initialbrainstorming to video production. The advisor supervised, guided, and supported the student´swork, which allowed the team to choose different viewpoints and approaches that maximizedthe student´s strengths working as a team. One objective was to guide the team to workinterdisciplinary, allowing every

Itshould be noted that virtual and augmented reality solutions are used extensively in otherindustries. An example is the use of augmented reality in surgery [12] with new developments inHead’s Up Displays progressing rapidly. These would allow the surgeon(s) to stay focused on theprocedure without having to look at multiple screens to interpret digital images, patient data andprogress.

TheCulturally Responsive framework proposes creating student-centered learning environments that affirmcultural identities; foster positive academic outcomes; develop students’ abilities to connect across lines ofdifference; elevate historically marginalized voices; empower students as agents of social change; andcontribute to individual student engagement, learning, growth, and achievement through the cultivation ofcritical thinking [18].

good experimentalist, though, willcarefully plan the experiment, considering how to tell if the results of the experiment aretrustworthy and, furthermore, providing a quantitative estimate of how trustworthy they are. Thisis where the idea of quantifying experimental uncertainties becomes useful.Quantifying Experimental UncertaintiesAn experimental measurement should always be reported along with an uncertainty estimate(e.g. 𝑔 = 9.7 ± 0.5 m/s 2 ). The idea behind an uncertainty estimate is that the true value of theresultant – in this case g - is never actually known; an uncertainty estimate is intended to providean upper and lower bound on where the true value is expected to fall. Uncertainty is inherent inthe process of taking experimental

inquiry activity was done during lecture in ChE 3084, a junior-level chemical engineeringcourse. The course content is roughly 2 credit hours of separations, 1 credit hour of simulations,and 1 credit hour of mass transfer. The experiment was to measure a diffusivity, to compare it toliterature values, and to develop of list of weaknesses of the experiment.The diffusivity is a measure of how quickly a compound moves through another due to aconcentration gradient. Fickian diffusivities of alcohols in air are on the order of 1 x 10-5 m2/s atroom temperature [1]. Experimental data were analyzed with the concept of diffusion time, inwhich the time for a molecule to diffuse an average distance in one dimension is given byEquation 1 [2

Therefore, the formation of home-culture studygroups could be considered an oppositional behavior because many of the faculty do notencourage it.Another example of community conformism occurred through teaching assistants’ office hours.Students found that TAs were more approachable than professors because they were morewilling to help and were more like peers. At TA office hours, students not only received helpfrom TAs, but also found help and community among other students there who were working onthe same assignments. The final example of community conformism was Student 5’s effort torecruit more minority students to undergraduate research opportunities, thus helping them adapt.We observed one example of

Family, cultural, economic and social factors influence this under-representation, factorswhich tend to reduce women´s self-concept on learning and ability in this area. Women have lowerself-concept in the STEM disciplines than do men, consequently the dropout rate for women is doublethat of men [3].An intervention was designed aiming to promote and increase self-concept in learning capabilities infirst-year engineering students in Computer Engineering and Industrial Engineering.
