success in the major is evident. In 2017, women comprisedapproximately 20% of engineering graduates, up from 18% in 1997, and 15% never entered theengineering workforce. In 2019, women comprised 48% of the workforce, 34% of the STEMworkforce, and only 16% of practicing engineers, a 3% increase from 2009. In an effort to betterunderstand these disparities, this mixed methods research investigated the creative self-efficacy(CSE) of women engineering majors and their beliefs about creativity in relation to livedexperiences and explores the research question: In what ways do undergraduate womenengineering students describe their creativity and how their lived experiences influenced theirdecision to major in engineering?

ASEE skills gap survey found that project management was one of the skills thatstudents felt least prepared for after completing their undergraduate degrees [3]. In a survey ofrecent engineering graduates, two-thirds did not realize how much of their work included projectmanagement [6]. Interestingly, many did not consider project management to be “realengineering”.In a survey of 41 undergraduate and graduate engineering students, 93% believe that goodproject management skills are very important for the engineering profession [7]. However, thosesame respondents rated the quality of their education in project management was not very high.This is not surprising as the only real opportunity for most students to use project management isin their

Thus faculty submit an increasing number of externalfunding proposals for grants, fellowships and awards.

These studies, including those that investigated sense of belonging in online learning,typically do not include external pressures on a student as a factor in determining their sense ofbelonging. This study is focused on the relationship between the “digital divide,” or the disparitiesin physical access to and use of technology, and sense of belonging for students caused by theCOVID-19 pandemic.Research QuestionsBoth concepts of digital divide and sense of belonging, though well studied, presented newchallenges in the face of online learning during a pandemic, particularly for at-risk students
we drive toward 100% renewables. The primary tool for achieving these goals is mathematical modeling of metal processes, particularly electrochemical processes, validated by key experiments. I currently teach Materials Processing, Analytical Methods, and Statics. All of my classes use tests with two sittings, a practice which appears to improve learning outcomes via peer learning between the two sittings, as described by a paper at ASEE 2022. And drawing from 50 years of project based learning scholarship at WPI, most of my classes include a team project, though I haven't yet figured out how to scale this to classes larger than 50 students.Kimberly Lechasseur (Research & Evaluation Associate) Kimberly LeChasseur
course in the spring semester of 2019. The research team followed ten of these teachers as the teachers implemented the CALCconcept. Implementation occurred in the fall semester after the teacher completed the CALCcourse. Each teacher chose and designed the lessons involving CALC. So, the lessons includedcoding within mathematics, science, literacy, and social studies topics. Members of the researchteam visited each of the ten teachers two to three times during the semester and recorded how theteachers implemented the CALC concept in these different lessons. The data collected includedvideo and audio recordings of the teachers and students engaging in the lesson. After data collection, the research team viewed each recording and identified
