Each KSA is followed by a K for knowledge, S for skill (or ability), or an A for attitude.Bolded KSAs represent KSAs that are applicable to multiple organizational goals; these appearon the table more than once.Assessing and designing coursework was not included in the table because the KSAs needed toachieve that goal will not be developed in the orientation, but rather throughout the core courseswithin the department. An additional goal of involvement and inclusion into the larger researchcommunity, both within the department and the community as a whole, was included from theconstant emphasis in the interviews.Many of the KSAs in Table 1 were modeled from what current students stated that they wishedthey had known when
functions are solved with this single command. The "assign"command is again used to associate the solution with the variable ωL. The first term in the"collect" command in Figure 5 divides the symbolic solution for ωL by the input ea. The"collect" command is used to group all of the terms with the same power of s in the solution forthe transfer function ωL/ea. Unfortunately the denominator of this transfer function is not in thebest possible form. Figure 6 illustrates some of the Maple commands that are available toreformat the denominator of the transfer function for better understanding. The "denom"command separates the denominator from the remainder of the solution for ωL. All terms arealso divided by LaJmJL, which was the coefficient of the

Still, there is a lack of adequate support forlow-income, academically talented students. The purpose of this poster is to describe theinterventions designed to support S-STEM scholarship students at Rowan University in the firstyear of our S-STEM project. Our S-STEM project objectives are threefold: 1) Providescholarships to encourage talented students with low incomes and demonstrated financial need toinitiate and graduate from engineering majors in the College of Engineering at Rowan Universityand subsequently enter the engineering workforce or a graduate program; 2) Develop a supportsystem that

many project alternatives that exist for cornerstone courses ([2]), the authors have lookedtowards a service-learning project as a means of achieving their course‟s design learningobjectives [6,7]. Service-learning is defined as a “method under which students learn anddevelop through active participation in thoughtfully organized service” [8]. In the context ofengineering design courses, projects centered in service-learning typically feature the studentteams designing a product or process that meets the needs of a community partner in need.Service-learning activities are becoming more prevalent in engineering curricula as instructorsdiscover that their pedagogical objectives of problem solving, working in groups, andexperiential learning

It has been suggested that instructors maybe more lenient with expectations and award higher grades that normal in an attempt tocompensate for the negative circumstances [10] and that grades during this time period wereinflated [11].To date, the majority of studies that explore student performance compare performance duringthe COVID affected semester(s) to performance pre-COVID. We sought to better understandboth the immediate and the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associatedinstitutional response on our engineering students. We explore student performance in three largemulti-section foundational mechanics courses: Statics, Mechanics of Deformable Bodies(Deformables), and Dynamics. These courses are required

toward science and engineering we included an adapted version ofthe Middle/High Student Attitudes Toward Science, Technology, Engineering and Math(S-STEM) survey [33]. The scale measures students' attitudes toward their own proficiency inSTEM subjects (e.g., “I know I can do well in science”), the value of STEM toward futureendeavors (e.g., “Knowing about science will allow me to invent useful things”), and interest inSTE|M careers (e.g., “I believe I can be successful in a career in engineering”). The measureshad sufficient levels of reliability on the pre (ɑ = 0.87) and post surveys (ɑ = 0.87) .Additionally, to measure students' perceptions of engineers and engineering we adapted itemsfrom the “What is Engineering?” survey instrument [9].

The methods that follow were developed to explore a multi-subfactordepiction(s) (from literature) of maintained interest, including conceptualizing and analyzingstudent responses. Two associated research questions thusly addressed in this study are: 1) whatis the strongest factor structure for measuring the construct of first-year engineering students’long-term, stable maintained interest in the choice of pursuing an engineering career?; and 2)how strong is the fit of theoretically-grounded structural models of the construct of first-yearengineering students’ maintained interest in engineering careers?

What career choices do engineering students make for after graduation, and what role(s) does their career and self knowledge play in their decisions?We are using a multi-method approach to answer our research questions. We have alreadyinterviewed engineering faculty, student advisors, and career services staff at our six partnerinstitutions, to help us understand (1) the career resources available to engineering students onthese campuses, (2) the career pathways that these engineering students typically take, and (3)the skills and abilities they believe students need to find

Scalefactors are introduced in order to normalize the dimensionless variable to be of order one,whereas reference factors are introduced in order to reference the dimensionless dependent orindependent variable to zero. Note that we have scaled all the dependent and independentvariables. Note also that we have considered the adsorption rate to be a dependent variable that isscaled by qs . It is not necessarily true that the adsorption rate would be scaled by qs t s , sincethe amount adsorbed might not experience a characteristic change of qs over the characteristictime ts .
