this work was done longitudinally across anundergraduate’s career as a student and has found that identity as an engineer is lowest as a first-year student. Capobianco et al. found that women who had a strong institutional identity andaffinity were more likely to persist in the field and see themselves as engineers [16, p. 111].These women also had a strong academic affinity that seemed to “surpass their genderedidentity” [16, p.112].MethodsThe research in this study is part of two larger studies into the success of First Year Experience(FYE) Courses.

Data collection for the projectincludes assessing multiple measures of students’ metacognition, including metacognitivemonitoring during statics exams. In this current study, we focus exclusively on the monitoringdata collected thus far.Metacognitive monitoring is the process of observing one’s understanding and approach whilecompleting a learning task [1]. One way to assess students’ metacognitive monitoring is tomeasure students’ ability to accurately either predict or postdict their score on an assessment oftheir

Societal relianceon IoT technologies has been increasing over the last 5 years and is projected to increaseexponentially. Wireless communication is a core component of the IoT ecosystem. Cellular andwireless technologies are also foundational topics in the NICE (National Initiative forCybersecurity Education) framework. Educational institutions have been increasingly adding IoT,cellular, and wireless courses to their curricula, to keep in line with societal and regulatory trends.Faraday cages are instrumental in understanding and testing several aspects of the wirelessparadigm.

Hands-on Laboratory ExperiencesLaboratory work in engineering typically involves the physical demonstration of scientific prin-ciples through carefully designed experiments or similar educational project activities. Two un-derlying concepts are core to the reason we use experimentation in education: 1) the scientificmethod, and 2) individual knowledge construction.The basis of the scientific method is that of experimentation. Gower [1] traces the foundations ofthe scientific method through Gallileo, Bacon, Newton, the Bernoullis, Bayes, and more. Despiteuncertainty and the probabilistic nature of experimental results, scientific knowledge is based oncertain methods, logic, and experiments. If we are to understand this scientific knowledge

EML micromomentsTraditionally, EML implementations connect to semester-long, large-scale projects or seniordesign courses where students apply concepts learned in multiple classes to a “real-world”problem. The timing of senior design in the final year of undergraduate studies makes itchallenging to develop an entrepreneurial mindset [9]. One way it can be effective for faculty toacclimate to EML is by doing small implementations through micromoments.

Developing engineers for future work is socio-technical in nature; success in modernengineering projects requires more than technical capability, but also the ability to manage teams of people and lead them towards theaccomplishment of common goals.

Understand StudentProblem-Solving ApproachesMotivation and BackgroundProblem-solving is an essential skill needed in the field of engineering [1]. The ability toeffectively solve complex engineering problems can be the difference between project successand failure, but problem solving differs based on expertise. Experts are known to employdifferent problem-solving strategies compared to novices [2, 3]. Experts’ greater informationprocessing capacity [4] allows them to approach a problem in a non-systematic manner [5].Specific skills that allow experts to effectively solve a problem are the ability to mentallyrepresent a situation and the ability to employ different problem-solving approaches for differenttypes of engineering problems [6]. Expertise
