, such as calculus, they may endorse a more incrementalview of their abilities that manifest as a growth mindset. Even within the same domain (i.e., astatics course), students may exhibit elements of a growth mindset in one topic area, but fixedviews of their abilities in another. The types of mindset students endorse have implications forhow they view and respond to challenging tasks, their persistence in a difficult engineering class,and their motivation to pursue engineering [1], [4]. Situational factors, such as feeling threatenedor facing a challenge, can provoke an individual to take on a certain mindset [5].There are linkages between students’ growth mindset and various success measures. For example,studies of elementary and secondary

Usingactive learning techniques, the authors sought to improve the students’ levels of engagementwhile teaching how to design, implement, and test 2D and 3D video games. The students learn touse agile software engineering practices, most notably Scrum and Kanban, to deliver incrementalgame prototypes in each course whereas the focus of the second course is a term-long roleplaywhere students play the roles of developer-owners of a failing game company. In-person andonline students were surveyed to measure their perceived levels of engagement with courseactivities. Using these assessments the authors demonstrate that it is possible to move an in-person active learning course to online delivery without

However, the graduation rate dropped to 22 percent in 2015, and surveyresponses from colleges were inconsistent, making it difficult to determine the exact rate in thatyear.Numerous studies have researched the factors influencing retention rates in engineeringprograms. In a 2013 Geisinger and Raman analyzed fifty studies on attrition rates in engineeringeducation at the postsecondary level and found broad factors driving students to leaveengineering including “classroom and academic climate, grades and conceptual understanding,self-efficacy and self

While our analyses of previous cohorts of REU students have shown no genderdifferences in student gains in research-based experience and skills during the REU program[27], it would be interesting to further examine whether correlations exist between studentlearning gains from research experiences with a student’s sense of belonging. By furtheranalyzing the additional sections of the survey based on the reported participant sex, moreinformation can be gathered on whether correlations exist between a student’s sense of belongingand growth mindset, scientific identity, self-efficacy, and likelihood of graduate school.

UBD or understanding by design models help students inrelating what they learn in a course to the real world, and thus deepening theirunderstanding. But given the limitations of these and other models, there is always someimportant piece of experience or learning that is left out. For that very reason, designthinking is one of the most renowned educational models. The model incorporates notonly the self-motivation and reflection of project-based learning, and the real-lifeassociation of concepts as seen in UBD models, but goes a step further and grantsstudents the freedom of exploration to truly expand their horizons

Current and past implementations of the course indicate thatstudents gain the most from the course when they engage in both the MOOC and the hands-onbuild and launch section, but still gain a great deal of understanding and self-efficacy from theonline course alone. When taking part in the hands-on portion, students become more curiousand ask insightful questions they had not thought of during the earlier sections, indicatingqualitatively an increase in student interest in further pursuing rocketry. These results arecurrently being studied more quantitatively in implementation of the course at the universitylevel.The instructional design is structured as first learning the theoretical concepts via video lessons,and then applying the hands-on kits

Instead, 40% and 50% student failure rates in engineeringare often explained as not meant to be, unready for rigorous education, or poor work ethic[35], [36]. However, Brandi Geisinger and Raj Raman’s work on understanding attrition ratesidentify ”classroom and academic climate,” “grades and conceptual understanding,” and “self-efficacy and self-confidence” as the three leading reasons students report leaving engineeringdisciplines ([36] p.914).

on an individual’s self-efficacy intheir ability to execute the desired behavior. While these three beliefs designations may notalways accurately predict behavior, research has shown these types to contribute the most. Otherresearch suggests that iterative self-reflection and reconciliation of our past behavior can helpdevelop more robust beliefs about our future actions [15].Beliefs occur at both a conscious (espoused) and subconscious (implicit) level which are derivedfrom our socialization [29]. It is difficult to effectively study implicit beliefs, making them a wildcard when comparing an individual’s beliefs to their behaviors. This is problematic forresearchers because our implicit beliefs may influence our actions, but our conscious
