the European Journal of Engineering Education [14]. Despite such omissions, theanalytical strategy presented in this work-in-progress paper advances how a researcher in anydiscipline, whether seeking to examine the state of a field, set of journals or publication venues,or a certain body of research within a field, can construct a dataset of procedural diagrams toexamine the corpus’ methodological landscape. The Method, an Ego-Network Systematic Methodological ReviewThe premise of the method described in this paper draws from work by Ring and Frohlich [15],which examined mixed methods research designs in mindfulness research. Their insight was toconsider a research design as a network, where each procedure in the design was a
objectives were:1. Apply the fundamental principles of soil mechanics and foundation engineering to solve geotechnical engineering problems.2. Apply the engineering design process to design solutions to geotechnical engineering problems.3. Communicate and justify engineering design through oral and written form.4. Function as part of a team.When examining the pedagogies described in the remainder of this paper, it is important to keepin mind that this course was an elective undergraduate senior level (i.e. 400 level) course. Whilethe 29 students represented in the study’s population had varying incoming GPAs ranging from2.48/4.33 to 3.88/4.33, they were mature students who had just completed their required soilmechanics course in the previous

She had completed undergraduate and graduate degrees at the institutionwithin the College of Engineering being studied. She brought personal experience to the study,both inside and outside of the classroom with both in-person and online courses, whichpositioned her as an insider since she was familiar with the organization and potential demandsin that realm [41]–[43]. She was mindful of her positionality throughout the study to providecritical and beneficial yet ethical research findings.

, I did it as like a protection for my head. When I was in my classes, I would be overloaded with bad feelings, and I didn’t want that, but it didn’t mean that I stopped worrying. It meant that I kept on feeling worse for skipping more and stuff like that. But I’ve noticed when I do something that my mind perceives as productive, then I feel better. So, I decide to take an art class instead of another engineering class. I’ve done it once before but especially now, where I was dying for something that I enjoyed that I could do and tell my brain, it’s required. I need to do this. I don’t think I told myself enough that I need to relax, that I need to do something other than stress about this test or whatever. The official name
my engineering identity, no one’s ever told me I couldn’t be an engineer, or that Iwasn’t qualified - There was no need for anyone to question the space I had reserved for me asan engineering student. Although, I still struggle with imposter syndrome because of my ownperception of my performance in engineering, regardless of the space I take up. I define impostersyndrome as “doubting your abilities and feeling like a fraud” [22]. My experience with impostersyndrome has consisted of struggling to accept my accomplishments, according to those closestto me. I do feel confident that, with time, anyone can learn any skill. As the process of growth isconstant and continuous, I’ve felt my imposter syndrome manifest itself less in my mind whenI’ve

Our findingssupport arguments for participation in such programs and their ability to contribute to greaterself-efficacy and empowerment in children by providing a structured space in which they canmake decisions and be positioned as equal contributors [1]. This has the potential to solidify suchSTEM engineering experiences in their minds as ones in which they are enabled and supportedto think, lead, and act independently or as a true peer to adults.Shifts in children’s self-efficacy and learning impacted caregiver perspectives of how theirchildren think and move through the world.

While studentsmay be exposed to and educated on the import of the ideas of diversity, inclusion and equitythrough taking required courses in other disciplines outside of their engineering major (forexample UCI requires all students to take three courses in the social and behavioral sciences),what does it indicate to them of their own discipline when the conversations about equity are notoccurring there within the field of engineering itself? While our intervention could becharacterized as brief, we believe that its efficacy is based on its ability to demonstrate tostudents that engineering as a discipline is grappling with ideals of equity and inclusion

). Another pertinent construct, especially for women and studentsfrom minority groups, is that of connecting experiences (Strayhorn, 2018). As connectednessencourages persistence, this construct is relevant to students who may be marginalized andface more obstacles in the field of engineering. Additionally, it is important to be mindful ofthe influence of cultural and familial impact as different cultures may have different practicesand ideologies. These aspects may affect students’ mindsets and the way they view situations,providing every individual with a unique approach to situations (Verdin et al., 2021).Therefore, the 10 latent constructs are employed to gain a better understanding of studentsfrom different backgrounds and to eventually provide

Presenting engineering within a societal context can also aid in retention,as women in particular often choose engineering as a path to help people [9], [10]. Curricular andinstitutional changes, innovated with these factors in mind, can assist in making engineeringmore appealing, welcoming, and inclusive for women and URMs.Despite the urgency that disparate representation in STEM presents, history, ethics, and identity(HEI) are almost never included in graduate programs, as shown in the Appendix.
