; Tutwiller, 2017; Komarraju, Swanson, & Nadler, 2014). AmongSTEM students, self-efficacy predicts engagement, recruitment, and retention of STEM students(Lent et al., 2003; Wang, 2013).STEM self-efficacy is often measured using a modified 5-item scale originally created byMidgley et al. (2000) as a measure of academic self-efficacy. Participants answer on a 1(Strongly Disagree) to 7 (Strongly Agree) scale with sample items that include: “I can do almostall the work in my STEM classes if I don’t give up” and “I am certain I can figure out how to dothe most difficult class work in STEM.” This scale has been used in recent empirical workcharacterizing how psychosocial variables influences STEM outcomes (Lytle & Shin, 2020; Shinet al., 2016

- fort. A graduate of Purdue University (PhD 2016), his research focuses primarily on reducing barriers to the learning process in college students. Topics of interest include computer science pedagogy, collabo- rative learning in college students, and human-centered design. Of particular interest are the development and application of instructional practices that provide benefits secondary to learning (i.e., in addition to learning), such as those that facilitate in learners increased self-efficacy, increased retention/graduation rate, increased matriculation into the workforce, and/or development of professional identity.Mr. William Rigoberto Mercado, University of South Carolina I am an undergraduate at the University
