The idea that to belong in engineering is to be male is embedded in the fielddue to the historical traditions of being a masculine-oriented

While mostcreativity frameworks involve divergent thinking (concept generation), convergent thinking(iterating a prototype), as well as openness to idea exploration, and reflection, in practice andunder constraints most engineering projects focus disproportionately on the first two of these four.Useful interventions might find ways to increase students’ “openness to idea exploration” and“reflection” about design.Studies have shown that students’ creativity increases when risk taking is supported in theclassroom (Daly [65] again, citing others). Increasing incentives for students to take risks andexplore ideas, and providing an environment in which they feel safe doing so, could disrupt the“lockstep” “death march” and enhance creativity and free

These aggregated definitions of student success establish the desired outcome for scholars, administration, and presumably students, yet overlook what success means to students.4.
