To further my research investigating the affective skills of university students, I engaged in a longitudinal mixed-methods study that explored the emotional intelligence (EI) of law students. For this study, I collected quantitative data to measure changes in EI of law students from their first to final year in the degree program. Then I gathered…

In the spring of 2020, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) was faced with the challenge of how to best serve and support its higher education members amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, for the Excellence in Civil Engineering Education (ExCEEd) Teaching Workshop (ETW), the indefinite prohibition of in-person gatherings triggered…

The PeeR Investigators Mentoring Experiences in Research (PRIMER) program was developed to enhance mentorship and support in Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) at our institution. This program leverages PRIMER's prior research experience in computational biology courses to mentor students in our bioinformatics-focused CUREs.…

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are an effective strategy to teach students about the process of scientific research. Students participating in a CURE also benefit in numerous other ways, such as gaining increased enthusiasm for science and increased retention in a STEM field. Because scientific research is increasingly…
