Changing future faculty's conceptions of SoTL

From the abstract: "Pre-workshop responses included misconceptions that indicated unfamiliarity with SoTL. Post-workshop responses had an increased emphasis on sharing outcomes from educational interventions. Only 8% of pre-workshop responses included all main elements of SoTL, and this increased to 44% for post-workshop responses."

Cultivating a Global Mindset in First Year Cybersecurity Students Through Internationalization of Curriculum

From the abstract: "In this study, we aim to understand the impact of IoC in a first-year cyber security course. 118 first-year cybersecurity students were provided training by the instructor about intercultural concepts. Upon completion of the training session, students were required to complete an online self-paced module known as Portable Intercultural Module (PIM). The PIM was focused on the various aspects of oral, written, and non-verbal communication and in what ways they differ across cultures, and how it can be misinterpreted if one is not aware of the cultural norm. Students were required to complete the module and participate in a final reflection assignment where they were given a scenario detailing conflict arising from cultural differences, and students were required to reflect based on the learnings from the PIM. We used a qualitative grounded theory approach to analyze the reflection responses of the students."

Creating interdisciplinary collaborative teaching/learning praxis with design thinking, communication, and composition

From the abstract: "In this paper, [the authors] discuss the point of view of three instructors who teach the integrated courses in the first-year program at Purdue University. The first-year integrated program launched by Polytechnic Institute...combines three departments: English, Communication, and Technology. The instructors representing these departments teach technology students about Design Thinking, Composition, and Communication, thereby providing students an opportunity for designing and developing multimodal compositions geared towards solving global issues via interdisciplinary interactions."
