approach to research on first-generation students, reflecting a focus on what thesestudents can add to engineering rather than focusing on what they lack [10]. We pose thefollowing research question: How do two first-generation students, one a first-year and one a fourth-year, describe their journeys through engineering?By comparing the perspectives of a first-year and fourth-year student, we can identifyopportunities for better supporting our first-year, first-generation students. Identifying thespecific challenges endured by both students in their first years, and the stories of how thosechallenges were navigated, allows educators to adjust existing practices to be more supportiveand inclusive of first-generation students.MethodsIn

cohort students for interacting with employers at the Career Fair; and 9. Industry tours to allow students to explore potential work environments they might enter after completing their studies.The SUCCESS Scholars cohort originally consisted of 24 students chosen from a pool ofapplicants that met the requirements of the S-STEM Program (low-income, academicallytalented). The goal was to combine best practices of other S-STEM programs together to providetiered support for the students using the nine elements mentioned above. The initial focus of theeffort centered around direct academic support (elements 1, 2, and 3 above). However, asstudents progressed further into their studies, the program’s focus shifted toward

Research Assistant in Dr Colleen Josephson’s j-Lab in Smart Sensing. Matthew has mentored students throughout the last four years, serving roles as a tutor and student-instructor, finding that the best way to truly learn a concept is by teaching to others. Matthew is expected to graduate in the summer of 2024 after completing his senior thesis in the development of a solar-powered sensor utilizing Visible Light Communication (VLC).Mr. Khanh Tran, University of California, Santa Cruz Khanh Tran is a 3rd year Electrical Engineering undergraduate at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

next teachers, we will be able to generate themeswithin and across the cases of teachers’ experiences teaching computer programming usinggamification and robotics. Both within-case and across-case results will contribute to theteaching and learning scholarship by elucidating how gamification can be utilized to teachcomputer science at the K-12 level. For example, by conducting this learning unit, STEMteachers may see themes in required skills to teach open-ended problem solving andcomputational thinking that may differ from scientific inquiry [25]. This case study also providesinsight on proper ways to implement a computer science framework from the teacher’sperspective, as there is no ‘best practice’ provided [12].This research is also meant

chair.Rachel’s positionality: I earned tenure at OSU two years ago (in 2022). I serve in twoadministrative roles as the Associate Chair for Graduate Studies and Research Infrastructure inthe Department of Engineering Education and Assistant Vice President for Talent and TeamDevelopment in the Office of Knowledge Enterprise (which is part of the university’s researcharm). I started my faculty career as a practice (i.e., teaching focused) assistant professor at OSUin 2013, but then was hired as a founding tenure-track assistant professor after my departmentwas created. Being a founding faculty member in the department was challenging, and I want toshare what I learned along the way to support junior faculty and those looking to establish newdepartments

) is essentially the inverse of SIT of intergroup relations. It considerssocial systems as a defining framework from which an individual’s place in society is determined[6]; social identity is constructed as an individual interacts with multiple groups and maintainspositive values from some groups while distancing themselves from others [10]. As a researchlens, social identity theory is useful for gaining a greater understanding of when and howstudents begin to identify with engineering individually and socially. As a result, these conceptsinfluenced all aspects of our research design including participant recruitment as well as datacollection and analysis, as discussed in the next section.MethodsTo address our research question, we conducted

engineering education, CBE provides a transition from universityto industry. Many parallels exist between CBE and industry practices, in particular thosesurrounding design-based concepts. In industry, new-product development (NPD) requiresattention to detail at the individual project, business, and systems level to create a successfulproduct launch [2], whereas university engineering design courses tend to focus on the individualproject level. Cooper’s [2] NPD success drivers often reflect the type of skills that are a focus inCBE. For individual new-product projects, overlapping concepts include voice-of-the-customer,pre-work, definition, and iterations. Building in the voice-of-the-customer may involve marketresearch for businesses, whereas

retrospective approach to research and writing that seeks to systematicallyanalyze and incorporate personal experience into traditional research methods [5]. Authorsproduce self-written, detailed, and descriptive writings of personal experience [6].Autoethnography is often used to illustrate facets of social and cultural experience as this writingstyle provides a medium for authors to incorporate their personal experience into a broader socialcontext. Typically, autoethnography authors center their reflections around one or more"epiphanies," self-claimed phenomena that are inspired or framed by an impactful event,particular state of mind, or cultural identity.

participant’s design outcomes [10][11]. Further still, many papersaddress different ideation methods and their efficacy [12] [13]. However, all previouslyreferenced papers follow participants who all have similar engineering and problem-solvingexperience. This paper not only addresses the different ideation methods but also compares theoutcomes between student and practicing engineers. By understanding the importance of learningdifferent ideation methods and detailing how to use them effectively, this paper describes how tooptimize problem-solving to best demonstrate the competencies that employers are seeking. This paper and associated research is for a Senior Honors Project within the engineeringdiscipline. The inspiration behind this project

students to choose engineering and persist in engineering. She also studies how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering foster or hinder belonging and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a 2016 National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning to understand engineering students’ identity development. She has won several awards for her research including the 2021 Journal of Civil Engineering Education Best Technical Paper, the 2021 Chemical
