Within the fall 2019 cohort of first-time-in-college(FTIC) freshman, 50% of the 5,682 students identified as either African American, Hispanic, ormultiracial (44% for STEM). The UH student body also reflects diversity in student economicstatus. In the fall of 2019, 45% of FTIC students were Pell-eligible. Within STEM, 37% ofEngineering, 39% of NSM, and 52% of Technology students were Pell-eligible. Approximately94% of UH FTIC undergraduate students receive financial aid from federal and state sourceswith an average aid amount of $7,061 per year. The average annual cost of attendance (COA) atUH (tuition + fees) for FTIC in-state students is

Data for this study were collected in the first week of the course during a fall 2022iteration. Students completed a reflection assignment to gauge their understanding of AI conceptsand what influenced their knowledge before being exposed to the course topics.

Students might keep a weekly journal ofreflections, e.g. regarding campus activities in which they have participated or academicdifficulties they have encountered and overcome [4]. Ambitious programs ask each student tocreate a portfolio of work (including narrated audio/video reflections) which helps him/her toidentify as an engineer [10].Most published literature recommends that a large portion of first-year students’ grades be basedon projects -- generally team efforts [5, 6, 10, 18, 20–23].

Third, do our students know how to express their opinions in a meeting, write areport, make a presentation, work in a team, and finally, know about ethics and compliance?Further studies could explore an updated analysis of key competencies (from industry andacademics) used in capstone simulations; and a broad study on construction students' writingand soft skills perceptions and performance.

general, when a tensor of rank r > 1 operates on atensor of rank p < r, the result is a new tensor of rank r − p.The algebraic and geometric approaches are mathematically equivalent in that they yield the samecomputational results and it is straightforward to deduce the transformation rule (1) from thegeometric definition [3]. It is perhaps a reflection of human psychology, then, that the academiccommunity has become so staunchly divided between the two approaches. Indeed, the rift datesback to the formulation of relativity theory. According to Norton [12], In Einstein’s hands, Lorentz covariance was a purely algebraic property. Space and time coordinates were, in effect, variables that transformed according to certain

timeframesestablished by the institution. Identifying student progress and outcomes for learning andteaching has long been a source of contention. Outcome-based education models emphasizestudent learning through actions that reflect competencies in the use of skills, content, ideas,information, and tools [18], [20]. This model differed from the traditional model in that it wasmore focused on students than on teaching methods and delivery systems. For example, in anoutcome-based model, teaching methods change dynamically in response to the student's skilland abilities rather than a fixed timeframe and schedule.Competency-based Education (CBE) Model is the next step in this movement [18]. CBE isdefined in a variety of ways by various researchers. Le Wolfe and

Our survey did not receive enough responses from faculty members for such analysisalthough we did reach out through new faculty training and professional meetings and massemail. The authors suggest this lack of interest may reflect the ongoing difficulty of raisingawareness about accessibility concerns among faculty at large. In the future, we plan to developmaterials and example modules to help faculty adopt UDL design principles in their coursesusing practices adapted from [18].
