Drawing on previous experiences as a mathematics and engineering teacher, her current re- search interests include studying the disconnect between home and school, with a specific emphasis on prekindergarten students. She will continue to pursue these research interests in the coming years with the support of the NSF Graduate Research Fellowships Program. In addition, she dedicates her spare time to exhibiting at the Virginia Tech Science Festival and hosting several sessions for the Kindergarden-to- college (K2C) Initiative.Ms. Ashley R.

, 2]. Training students to develop design thinking and skills will allow them to enterprofessional practice ready to participate in the challenge of infrastructure re-design. Indeed,ABET requires that students have “an ability to apply engineering design to producesolutions…” upon graduation [3]. Perhaps the most effective way to guide students indeveloping design skills is through engagement in real-world projects. Furthermore, providingauthentic design experiences in a supportive educational environment that encourages successcan build self-efficacy (one’s beliefs in their ability to achieve specific tasks), which in turn fuelsmotivation to succeed as an engineer [4]. Promoting engineering self-efficacy is a promisingstrategy for retaining

The study’s analysis examined microaggressions in the context ofundergraduate engineering programs at both sites, an HBCU and a PWI. The results suggestedthat a higher frequency of microaggressions took place at the PWI than the HBCU. The mostfrequently identified microaggressions included disjointed race and gender dialogue, hiddenlanguage, projected stereotypes, an ascription of intelligence, silence, and marginalization. Thepaper aims to increase awareness of the prevalence and varying types of microaggressionsexperienced between the sites. These results may influence policies and educational practices tomeet the needs of underrepresented minority students

The original face-to-face course lectures were slide-based due to the highly visual natureof the content. Each lecture required students to read handouts and answer the providedquestions prior to lectures. The questions were collectively answered during the lectures andoften prompted discussions. The assignments relied heavily on students’ ability to reviewnanotechnology-related scientific journal papers and evaluate the outcomes. The assignmentsculminated into a term project where students selected an application area and presented theirresearch to the class. In the end, each student prepared a research proposal

Toincrease a sense of community, discussion groups were limited to 30 students, which resulted in atotal of four discussion groups. In addition, in preparation for the team-based project (4 studentsper team), one person from each time was assigned to each discussion group. This modifiedapproach to the Jigsaw method [48] allowed students to gain a more wholistic perspective (of theentire class) in preparation for the team-based project.Third, this module culminated with a final team-based project.

Rather than having asingle portfolio, TAs were required to complete every assignment for the semester with a duedate two weeks before that topic was taught in the class. The main projected advantage of thenew model is that it ensured all TAs were personally familiar with every assignment rather thanrelying on them to look at the assignment and solution independently before class. Additionally,this new model was designed to alleviate issues with procrastination. In the past, if TAs waitedtoo long to start the portfolio, there may have been a huge spike in their

To use a spoon, the person may need to like the color; and the material ofthe blade must be strong enough for an endurance task. Because design decisions areconsequential, undergraduate engineering programs have a responsibility to prepare students asdecision makers.Capstone design courses allow undergraduate engineering students to experience open-endeddesign projects before starting their professional careers. As such, capstone serves as anopportunity to develop students’ ability to make decisions in an ill-structured setting.
