Whatcharacteristics of REU experiences are most critical in encouraging students to pursue graduate study?How do these vary given other factors (e.g, gender, race, institutional type, impact of prior researchexperiences?)

the program were diverse in their year of undergraduatestudy, discipline of study in STEM, and location in the USA. Participants came into the programwith some awareness of sustainability and climate-change basics and challenges. Still, pre- andpost-program surveys and end-of-program interviews showed a short-term gain in knowledge ofsustainability and climate change among the SRTS-REU participants. These results can be usedto inform similar future programs that aim to engage undergraduate students in sustainabilitytopics. We plan to build upon this study with future cohorts of program participants.References[1] “THE 17 GOALS | Sustainable Development.” Accessed: Jan. 08, 2024. [Online].

It is a measure based on participants’ intrinsic motivationdesigned based on self-determination theory [1]. It focuses on the aspect of motivation thatcomes from the importance and effort that they attribute to this class. Students respond ona 5 point Likert scale of “Strongly agree” to “Strongly Disagree” to the following questionsand the measure corresponds to the average of the answers. ”I plan to put a lot of effortinto this class”, ”It is important to me to do well in this class”, ”I believe this class couldbe of some

. Through narrative inquiry and a novel,boundary-spanning framework, we explore the career stories of women who have leftengineering after having worked in industry. We make sense of the participants’ career decisionsby considering their career journeys through the lens of the unfolding model of turnover, a theoryfrequently used by organizational psychologists yet not fully applied to the study of women’sengineering career decisions. In this paper, we describe the engineering career journey of Louise,one of three participants from our larger study [1]. We invite you to come alongside us as weexplore Louise’s engineering career story through the shocks (jarring events), scripts (plans ofaction), and image violations (violations of goals and values

However, the degradation of some students’ recall ofinformation sources following the 4901 post-test (where specific information tools were notaddressed) may highlight the importance of continued refresher training on these topics.Future Work: The objective questions in these tests do not measure how well students can usetechnical literature; rather, they test recognition of resource types, tools, and article structure.

More research is needed to understand how or why current and recent students’perceptions of the effectiveness of their programs and courses sometimes contradict purportedbest practices, and the implications for lifelong learning motivations and strategies.Marra et al.

However, the implementation of PtD in the constructionindustry faces several challenges that hinder its widespread adoption. This paper aims to betterunderstand the key factors negatively influencing civil engineers' ability to utilize PtD. Theresearch team, therefore, conducted a survey aimed at gathering insights from engineeringpractitioners regarding the factors that might impede its utilization and the role of engineers inits implementation. The findings indicate that various factors contribute to the challenge, suchas the absence of PtD educational materials

Responses for S-STEM and non-S-STEM students were similar. Surveyrespondents shared that earning potential and job security were among the reasons they chose aSTEM major.

Work and ConclusionWhile they are central and essential to our redesign process, faculty are not our onlystakeholders. In our future work, the new curricular objectives and proficiency rubrics, alongwith curriculum mapping data, will be shared with a focus group of current undergraduatestudents, as well as external stakeholders (including alumni, employers, and the program’sexternal advisory board), for observations and input. Once input has been received and any finaladjustments to the objectives and rubrics have been made, the UPC will develop proposals forcurriculum changes. These changes may include changes in sequencing, course offerings, orindividual course changes. The UPC plans to use the objective rubrics to track student learningover

Furthermore, trainings and professional development opportunities for informaleducators often include short-term experiences (e.g., two-hour workshop) grounded intraditional-focused lectures that reinforce teaching habits (e.g., transmission of knowledge) [18-21].
