The findings from the firstdissemination of the survey will likely influence future research directions. One planneddirection is to use the findings of the survey to determine how to develop ways to better engagewith and encourage the teams that do appear to have poor team culture. By connecting teams thatare more welcoming with teams that are still developing ways to be more inclusive, we may beable to push project teams to adopt more inclusive recruitment and retention strategies.Another planned direction is to make the survey available for use at other

The flipped learning approach has gained significantmomentum since 2012, with 27% of higher education faculty surveyed (in all disciplines) statingthat they planned to incorporate flipped classroom techniques and 29% saying that they werealready using a version of flipped delivery in their instruction [14]. While the numbers of facultyemploying flipping techniques tends to be lower in the engineering disciplines than in the overallhigher education classrooms presented in the survey, research supporting the use of flippedlearning in engineering continues to grow.

The amount and quality of studentfeedback we have received, both via survey and anecdotally, and our own observations haveprompted us to enact improvements to the projects going forward. We have highlighted a few ofour plans in the list below.  Although the projects are meant to be mostly self-guided by student teams, we need to develop tutorials to better guide student learning of new skills (e.g., use of finite element analysis software, physical computing in Python).  Student

However, they gained abetter understanding of the lesson after a VT PEERS team member taught one of the engineeringlessons: “But when you came in and you did it, it was like oh, okay.

We have our preconceived notions and prior knowledge of climbing mountains, butwe are challenged to increase our consciousness about the problem so that we may take ownershipof the problem.

determining and teaching bestpractice make at least three important contributions to science and engineering education. First,they offer students a contextualized experience for cumulative knowledge-building and then anopportunity to present that knowledge in ways consistent with a vertical knowledge structure thatthe community of scientists and engineers both understands and values. Second, too often labnotebooks are trivialized as simple recounts. That may provide some explanation for the lack ofguidance. But, as we see in Jaun’s entry, notebooks can serve several purposes, e.g., planning,problem-solving, realizing the best possible solution (rather than the ‘right’ solution typical ofhomework problem sets) – actual knowledge practices critical to
