Even if the model is not explicit, components of engineering identity such ascompetency/self-efficacy and recognition (from herself and others) are still discussed [6], [7].Godwin’s Engineering Identity Model [2] for early post-secondary students (as thisautoethnography fits into this category) is situated in the idea of “role identity” in that “theindividual attaches to the context of a social and cultural role. An individual has as many selvesor identities as he or she has groups of people with which he or she interacts. Some identitiesbecome more salient based on the particular context and social situation in which an individual isimmersed” [2]. The

Traditionally viewed as implicit messaging for women inengineering learning and research environments [2], [3], Villanueva [4] (re)introduced the HC asa structural framework that contains several interconnected pathways (awareness, emotions, self-efficacy, and self-advocacy; each are described in the paragraph below). According to sociologyscholars [17]-[19], structural frameworks consider how moving parts of a system (e.g., commonnorms, customs, traditions, and cultures) are structurally supported and sustained to promotestability and solidarity amongst its actors (individuals or groups).

transformative experience as the altruism-focusedinterventions. This research has shown that framing engineering as an altruistic career path canlead to meaningful changes in students’ definitions of engineering and their connection ofengineering to their career interests.IntroductionThe Goal Congruity Framework (GCF)[1, 2] predicts that students will experience greatercommitment to a career when there is alignment of their career values and their perceptions of thefield in terms of what values it can align with. Similarly, Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT)explains how students’ learning experiences can inform their career identity development throughtheir self-efficacy, outcomes expectations (perceptions in GCF), and values for their career.[3

Students develop higher self-efficacy and STEM outcome expectancieswhen parents stress the importance and value of these subjects and support STEM experiencesboth in- and out-of-school [7]. Parental encouragement including toy selection, access totechnology, and high-quality community resources and formal schooling can provide childrensubstantial advantages during elementary and secondary schooling [8]. The STEM community’sgoal should be to create culturally responsive partnerships with diverse families. Thesepartnerships should be authentic and equal, empowering the families to become activeparticipants, allowing them to show who they really are and celebrating the strengths

, we find increased perceptionsof self-efficacy, increased belief that the subject matter of the course is related to future careeraspirations, increased belief that it is possible to improve computing skills within the timespan ofone semester, a sharp reduction in feelings of anxiety associated with coding, and an increasedbelief that computing is a collaborative activity. Perhaps most intriguingly, the data also showthat students have a decreased belief that computing skill is an innate talent possessed by otherpeople (in other words, investment of effort can yield improvements even if one does not startout strong in this area) with a simultaneously increased belief that they themselves possess innatetalent!Beyond these measures of changed

Traditionally, the graded handwritten assignments includenotes from the instructor or the course TA pointing at the student’s mistake [7]. It is assumed thatif the graded work is returned to the students with enough delay, students would review theirown work and correct their mistakes for the next assignment/quiz/exam. However, there is noclear evidence to show this method is effective and to ensure that the students have reviewed thegraded assignments.In this article, I present early results using descriptive analysis comparing student grades inElectronics I from groups who participated in

Sullivan et al. reported low confidence in technicalactivities related to robotics as a reason for the participation disparity [2]. An analysis of pre-college extracurricular activities and their mapping to engineering majors showed the disciplineswith high percentages of male students, such as mechanical engineering and electrical engineering,had more students tinkering with electrical and mechanical components outside of school prior tostarting college [3]. When girls are not part of extracurricular robotics programs, they miss vitalopportunities to develop tinkering self-efficacy. Attracting more girls to

Geisinger and Raman found six broad factors thatinfluence retention or attrition including: grades and conceptual understanding, student self-efficacy and confidence, interest and career goals, identity, and climate [3].

Product Design is the process of definingproduct characteristics such as dimensions, appearance, materials, tolerances, etc. It starts withclearly defined customer needs, which are translated into measurable target specifications.Concepts of the product will then be generated, selected, tested, and final specificationsdetermined. For a product to make its way successfully to the market, various aspects of designneed to be carefully analyzed and modeled. One main advantage of computer modeling in product design is that various tests can beperformed on the model that are otherwise dangerous or costly to be done on actual products.

Outcomes ofthese experiences include increased STEM knowledge and experience, scientific researchpractices, career awareness, and STEM self-efficacy and identity. RET programs typically aim tosupport translation of research into classroom practices through curricular development by aProfessional Learning Community, which leads to improvements in STEM teaching andlearning, and includes outcomes such as increased persistence in STEM teaching andpedagogical content knowledge (Krim et al., 2019).The Berkeley Engineering Research Experiences for Teachers plus Data Science (BERET+D) isan example of one such

primaryconstructs influencing their choice: self-efficacy, expectations and personal goals.From a student’s perspective, a lack of sufficient knowledge about various majors along with commonuniversity requirements to declare a major before or during their first year presents a series ofchallenges. Issues that arise from choosing a major they later desire to opt out of can delay graduationby a year or more. Consequent costs of an ill-fitting choice in majors can go beyond additionalcoursework and financial setbacks to include social-emotional considerations such as degrading theirself-confidence and sense of belonging, particularly in the engineering field.Further studies on first year engineering programs highlight a trend where in-coming students showhigh

EngagementWell supported academic makerspaces provide students with open access to resources that helpthem develop their problem-solving skills, provide opportunities for collaboration, increase self-efficacy, and develop sense of belonging [9, 10]. Sense of belonging generally relates to self-perceptions of fit within a given context and has been well established as a theoretical constructthroughout the literature [11, 12]. The context in question can be formal, such as an educationalsetting or STEM discipline, or informal, such as friendships or affinity groups. The positiveimpacts of a strong sense of belonging on academic achievement and persistence in STEMmajors are well documented [13-15]. When students interact in positive ways with diverse peers

Three features of a learning environment contribute to students’development of project ownership: discovery, iteration and collaboration, with the last twofeatures being responsible for students’ development of emotional ownership of their projects(Corwin et al., 2018). A growing sense of project ownership helps students become more tolerantof obstacles and to persevere when facing challenges (Ryoo & Kekelis, 2018; Corwin, Graham,& Dolan, 2015) which in turn increases students’ self-efficacy and motivation (Corwin et al.,2015), encourage students to pursue a long-term career goals in science (D.

Students can judge their abilities only to the extent that they are exposedto a topic since they do not know the threshold for a learning outcome. Therefore, repeating thosequestions in the post-camp revealed some insights.Figure 7: (a) Choice of major pre-camp survey (N=24), (b) Choice of major post-camp survey(N=36) In the two surveys, students were asked to rate their skills on a scale of 1-10 in response to thefollowing four prompts: 1.
