Through the literature search, it was evident that reinforcement learning (RL) is the mostwidely used algorithm, consistently picked due to its high versatility and adaptability compared toother algorithms.RL is often preferred as it has a unique ability, allowing the AI agent to ‘communicate’ with itsenvironment, opening more gateways for development in programs, especially in gamedevelopment [11], [15], [18]. In this method, there are two main components, the agent and theenvironment. The environment reveals itself and its current data in the form of the state, S; and

understand who girlsselected as role models and how they perceived their OEs. Therefore, we began by asking girlsabout role models in a general sense. Specifically, we asked them “Do you have a role model?”,and if so, we asked them to identify their role model(s) and to explain why they chose thatperson (or people) as a role model (or role models). We then shifted our questioning to focusmore specifically on perceptions of the OEs by asking girls, “Would any of your OEs be a rolemodel for you?” We followed this up the next semester by asking, “Could any of your OEs be arole model for you?” Next, we directly asked girls, “Are any of your OEs a role model for you?”and asked them to explain why or why not. Because we were not convinced that girls

In this article, weadopt Griffith et al.'s definition of ICC, which refers to an individual's ability to gather,interpret, and effectively respond to culturally diverse cues in a multicultural environment [14].Prior literature demonstrated that international students face particular challenges, such

Engineering alonecannot solve large sociotechnical problems but can contribute towards solutions [8], [31].Similarly, the integration of social and technical aspects of engineering may lead to a shifttowards a more justice-oriented mindset of what it means to be an engineer. Namely, engineeringis not just about solving problems of efficiency for profit but is about solving problems forpeople in ways that bring about equity and improve quality of life.[1] S

In this spirit, the last tutoringsession was devoted to individual presentations of their understanding and reflection of thefour linguistic concepts and corpus techniques. It was found that every participant wascapable of applying the linguistic concepts to their own writing (see Table 4). While Vihaanand Shyla chose to apply all four linguistic

There have been numerous definitions of remote labenvironments in the literature where the terms “remote lab” and “virtual lab” are often usedsynonymously [5, 6]. However, it is important to establish a clear distinction between the twoterms. Virtual laboratories are simulated, non-physical environments that model a real-life labwith a computer-based application. Conversely, remote laboratories give the user the ability toaccess and control physical equipment from distant locations
