As part of the action research process, this groupcoaching model was revised in a second iteration of the institute. This paper aims to disseminatefive lessons learned to faculty developers in designing and leading a group coaching model.(1) Engineering instructional faculty are seeking community, over expertise.Previous research and the case study research for this project identified that the professionaldevelopment needs of EIF are centered around building community [4]. EIFs are seeking toengage in learning experiences that involve learning from other EIFs, sharing their efforts andbeing recognized for

relatively brief peer comments, so weconsidered other models. In our search of frameworks and rubrics, we observed that a significantamount of the peer feedback literature is based in medical education because commonpedagogical practices in the field, such as clinical rotations, necessitate immediate feedback froman instructor. Still, their approaches can likely be applied to other group or team-based learningsettings. A well-known approach to evaluating teamwork behaviors includes the TeamUP rubric.The TeamUP rubric was developed in the form of a Likert-scale survey for midwifery studentsand includes five domains: planning, environment, facilitating the contributions of others,managing conflict, and contributing to the team project [20].

Regarding their classes, acommon theme emerged with participants highlighting specific courses or discussing theimportance of time management skills. In contrast, when discussing their team experiences,participants tended to elaborate more, often listing multiple skills or experiences. On the teamside, many responses emphasized the value of teamwork and project management.

While making the CAM survey items more appropriate to Latinaengineering students, this approach would still leave the two research stages disjointed andunconnected since ethnic identity is a narrowly focused construct that fails to encompass allrelevant parameters. Greater coherence is achieved by incorporating aspects of the CCWMmodel in the first-stage survey instrument. Using Hiramori’s [20] quantitative implementation ofthe CCWM as a guide to modify CAM survey items related to racial identity [5], we willleverage the quantitative first stage results for planning the qualitative CCWM framework in thesecond stage of our study.

2024 semester-end survey asked students to rate twelve course elementson a 4-point scale from “not at all effective” (1) to “highly effective” (4) in aiding their learning.The majority of the class found the quiz effective, giving it a mean ranking of 2.66. However, itis notable that only the exam corrections assignment (the other major metacognitive activity) wasrated lower than this. It is the perception of the instructors that the fall semester cohorts tend toengage more with these aspects of the course, and they plan to repeat this survey for severalsemesters to determine if there is a difference between the semesters. Regardless, there is roomfor improvement in how metacognition is encouraged in the course.AttendanceAttendance is
