students' overall experience of the mindfulness activities. During theseinterviews, students were given the opportunity to express their unbiased experience along withany benefits they gained and challenges they faced. The interviews were recorded andtranscribed using NVivo, a qualitative data analysis tool. SFG leaders then identified generalthemes/sub-themes in the transcripts. In their final report , the results were written only accordingto themes, with deidentified quotes to retain confidentiality.Measures of Mindfulness: The FMI survey was used to measure mindfulness and presence(attention to the present moment) in this study (see Appendix B for FMI survey questions)[4,25].

In the focus group discussion, one student reflected that “I think as a whole, for us, todumb-down our research so they can understand a standard helps us to understand our material.Yes, it gave us a better understanding of our own project and the kids did have fun—that was agood purpose of the activity.” The dissatisfaction of the one student who disliked the activity isapparent in this exchange with notes from the program evaluator, “I was not a big fan of theoutreach activity.

The paper reports that themodality of other courses that students were co-enrolled in at the time of taking the flippedclassroom affected student participation more than the modality of the flipped classroom itself.Both pre-class and in-class participation rates decreased as the percentage of in-person courses inthe department increased. In addition, a correlation was found between the percentage ofstudents who fully watched videos and the percentage of students who received B or highergrades. Lastly, recommendations are made to increase pre-class participation in an in-personflipped classroom.1. IntroductionIn 2020, students and educators went through an

andpublishing patterns.Journal articles and conference proceedings were originally planned as the formats to beexamined but as the research proceeded it was determined that a) there was sufficient material toexamine the patterns focusing only on the journals and b) that publishing in conference venueswas potentially different enough to warrant a separate study. Finally, as neither of the authorswas fluent enough in other languages to warrant including them, only articles published entirelyin English were included, i.e. an English abstract alone was insufficient for a study to beincluded. This filter was applied inconsistently by the database vendors so some of the originalnumbers include papers that were written in a language other than English but

These results are based on comparing mean differences and no statistical tests wereconducted on the data. For example, for the 2021 ASI, respondents indicated pre-post knowledgegains (pre-survey response rate of 76% (n=37 of 49 total participants)) and post-survey responserate of 71% (n=35) in example categories (6pt Likert scale): (a) The role that identity plays increating effective learning environments (m=3.68 to m=5.06); (b) Key elements of an equitymindset (m=3.56 to m=4.88); and (c) Ways to support the persistence of undergraduate studentsfrom underrepresented groups in STEM disciplines (m=3.47 to m=4.59).

Accordingly, during the two long semesters in 2022, we tested ourinnovative online lab teaching strategies in the laboratory sessions with the following activelearning strategies in the laboratory sessions by a) developing and implementing open-endeddesign experiences into lab work, b) establishing teamwork in online labs, c) creating an onlinelearning community and to overcome isolation, and d) incorporating pre-lab simulations and pre-lab video demonstrations. These core lab learning strategies were applied in five EE courses:Circuits, Electronics I & II, Microcomputers, and
