the quote from themovie Cool Hand Luke: “What we've got here is failure to communicate [1], [2]." The luridheadline reflects ongoing debate in STEM classrooms on what credence should be given toteacher and student expectations and how to reconcile them when they are at odds. Ubiquitousstudent surveys lack scientific rigor and provide limited insight on teaching effectiveness andhow to improve student outcomes. A teacher may have happy, inspired students and angry,frustrated students in the same classroom. We seek to understand why this is so and what wouldhave helped the struggling teacher and students.

UpdateAbstractThis paper provides an update on our research exploring the college experience of science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) college students with attention-deficit/ hyperactivitydisorder (ADHD). Individuals with ADHD make up a growing fraction of college students.Despite their increasing college presence, little is known about their college experiences andacademic success. This project involves three sequential studies guided by the social model ofdisability. Study 1 is a quantitative analysis investigating the relationship between pre-collegefactors, college experiences, and academic success of college students with ADHD. Study 2 is ascoping literature review of the college experiences of these students, and Study 3 is aqualitative

In this study, we develop a fieldexperiment designed to increase entrepreneurial proclivity in undergraduate women studyingSTEM fields. Entrepreneurial proclivity is defined as the extent of an individual’s (1) intentionsto engage in entrepreneurship, (2) efforts to acquire knowledge about entrepreneurship, and (3)entrepreneurial actions. There is a general agreement in the literature that women are less likely than men to beinvolved in entrepreneurship [1], [2]. In 2016, women were majority owners for 38% of firms,and this ownership was concentrated primarily in non-STEM retail and service industries [3],[4

This approach has been demonstrated as ineffective [1]. Educationhas been under constant change. Consequently, there has been a shift towards active learningmethods where students play a more active role in their learning. [2], [3].

Furthermore, the current engineering curriculum designgenerally lacks the connection/cohesion among different subjects (e.g., material mechanics,structural mechanics, hydraulic mechanics, soil mechanics) for geotechnical engineeringeducation [1]. It hinders geotechnical students’ ability to gain the comprehensiveunderstanding of interdisciplinary study and further affects the ability of creative problemsolving. To address this issue, game-based learning might provide an alternative approach tostimulate the engineering creativity of geotechnical students.

However, this promise is yet to be realized, with anemerging body of work critiquing the notion they are delivering equitable benefits to all students[2]–[4].
