American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 WIP: An Autoethnographic Account of a Female Engineering InternAbstractThis paper is a work in progress (WIP) that explores the experiences of a female undergraduateengineer, Kayla1, in both professional and academic settings. Studies have found that womenwho persist in engineering describe themselves as having an engineering identity [1]. Accordingto Faulkner, however, the normative engineering culture tends to make working relationshipseasier for men than women, and women are “visible as women, yet invisible as engineers” [2, p.169].

not only focuses on the noveltyand usefulness of a product, but also morality and ethicality [8]. In addition, every field tends todefine creativity differently as it relates to that field, but most people view creativity as highlyvaluable [9].Creativity in Engineering. Creativity is increasingly essential to engineering. It is listed as thethird most important skill for an engineer to have [10]. The core of engineering is to solve real-world problems. In order to do this, engineers have to apply scientific principles in creative waysto develop effective and efficient solutions [11]. The problems we face today are becoming morecomplex as technology advances, therefore the solutions to these problems are required to bemore creative [12, 13

On the simplest level, this may take the form of asking students what content was unclearat the end of a lecture, and sharing responsibility for the learning of the material by spending afew minutes clarifying those concepts before the period ends. An examination of the function of content suggests that it is ethical to teach less contentin favor of spending a small portion of student energy on self-reflection, helping them to developas learners. When tangential conversations occur about the applications and implications ofcontent in a lecture, instructors recognize these conversations for the valuable learning momentsthat they are, while

The collection ofwords used includes the steps of the engineering design process and terms such as criteria andconstraints for elementary school students.
