CertificationStudies of STEM schools have presented mixed findings regarding the impact of certification onstudent achievement. For example, authors of a quantitative study aimed to understand thedifference in college and career readiness of fourth- and fifth-grade students attending STEMcertified and non-certified elementary schools [9]. The results of their study illuminated onesignificant relationship, such that students at STEM schools displayed higher English LanguageArts (ELA) median growth percentiles than students at non-certified schools. Findings amongother subjects and grade levels were insignificant, however. Similarly, a study of third- and fifth-grade students identified a positive relationship between attending a STEM-certified school

How helpful do you feel the graded writing assignments were in helping you to Q6 learn engineering statics? Explain your response. How helpful do you feel more extensive writing assignments would be to learning Q7 engineering statics? How helpful do you feel more extensive writing assignments would be to preparing Q8 you for an engineering career?

fundamental concept in Civil Engineeringeducation could help attract and retain students. Research has identified helping others andequity as motivating some students to pursue engineering [e.g.,19]. But some students also leaveengineering when they perceive other majors as more supportive of those goals (e.g., [20], [21]).Thus, introducing students to equitable infrastructure in early civil engineering courses mightinspire students to choose and persist in careers in civil engineering.Further, research into career choices has shown a perception by students that STEM fields are inopposition to the goal of helping others, and this has been identified as a possible contributingfactor to underrepresentation of women in these fields [22].
