According to Generation Z researchers Seemiller & Grace,among the top issues on the minds of Generation Z students are “education, employment, andracial equality” [6]. Not surprisingly, today’s prospective students are most likely to citepreparation for a job as the number one reason they are considering a college education[3].Coming of age during the economic recession of 2008, Generation Z is pragmatic and seeksvalue in a degree that they see as critical to landing a job down the road. A real concern for thesestudents is the ability to afford a college degree, which is not surprising given

Two facilitatorsfurther commented that the experience helped them to feel less alone or recognize that anydifficulties they may have experienced were similar to those of others: “I was able to see that myexperience in the college of engineering was not necessarily unique; others felt as though theydidn’t fit in and I wasn’t alone in that.

Lovelace was fascinatedwith Babbage’s Difference Engine. With her analytical mind she could understand how itworked as few people could since she had been extensively tutored in mathematics throughouther childhood. Her mother had decided that a solid grounding in mathematics would ward offthe wild and romantic flair that possessed Lovelace’s estranged father. After meeting in 1833,Lovelace and Babbage remained a part of the same social circle and wrote to each otherfrequently [9].Ada Byron married William King in

Computationalthinking is also considered crucial for developing engineering habits of minds and solvingengineering problems [2]. When students work on coding, they can learn how to design acomputer program while developing their computational thinking skills [3].
