Further, a third concept graph was collected from participants approximatelyone month later to capture the retention from the initial intervention. This pilot study is intendedto explore the potential for using concept map analysis as a means for assessing learning aboutengineering design.4.1 Participants And Experimental Setup Fifteen participants selected for this study are pre-service teachers participating in a STEMbased grant and scholarship program at the University of Texas at Dallas.

Her research focuses on how identity, among other affective factors, influences diverse 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

algorithms to the omission of important topics and key theoretical ideas.Langley’s findings provide a rationale for integrating discussions and ideas commonly in the realm of thehumanities and social sciences into AI course design for engineering education [31]. Their study found that“problem areas like qualitative reasoning, analogy, and creativity are ignored in favor of ones that are more easilyformalized” [31]. Promoting critical thinking and creativity through interdisciplinary approaches to problem-solvingcan set the basis for qualitative reasoning beyond quantitative analyses. It also allows for deeper reasoning on theinterplays between society and technology.These findings echo Mishra and Siy, who warned that “a Computer Science centric
