Abstract
The rapid adoption of digital educational technologies has transformed engineering education, introducing new opportunities and challenges in course delivery. While these tools support dynamic and adaptive learning, their broader impact on student success across academic, technical, well-being, and community-building dimensions remains underexplored. This study conducts a scoping review to examine how digital technologies align with Integrated Dynamic Teaching (IDT) principles to address these four pillars. A systematic search of ERIC, Scopus, and Web of Science identified 371 articles, of which 31 empirical studies met the inclusion criteria. Results indicate that gamification platforms, virtual reality environments, and simulations are widely used to enhance academic engagement and conceptual understanding. However, digital tools explicitly designed to support student well-being and foster a sense of community remain underutilized. The review highlights key recommendations, including leveraging digital technologies to enhance mentorship opportunities, facilitate collaborative learning, and implement flexible course structures that accommodate diverse learning needs. These findings underscore the need for a more balanced integration of digital tools that not only improve academic performance but also promote student well-being and community engagement in engineering education.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
