. IntroductionElectrical and computer engineering courses, like many of their counterparts in science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields, face challenges in improving the studentunderstanding of the subject matter. Some of these challenges include connecting the abstractconcepts that are covered in the classroom to real-life applications and systems; engaging thestudents in the learning process and easing the burden of long, abstract lectures; working withtangible objects such as circuits, development boards, electronic parts, etc. while presenting thetopics for the first time to students; and enhancing the soft skills, such as communication andteam working while delivering the engineering concepts.To address some of the challenges, many approaches

the engineeringdiscipline. If students are to engage meaningfully with technology after this course, a strongersense of identity as an engineer or maker is a desirable outcome. Identity and sense of belonginghave been tied to persistence with STEM subjects and long-term career success [13], [14]. Aheightened sense of belonging may translate into more confidence taking roles adjacent totechnical fields, working closely with practicing engineers.The present study sought to test three research questions (RQs) about students’ self-efficacy andsense of belonging.Research QuestionsRQ1: Does a non-major student’s self-efficacy change after completing circuit labs and acircuit design project?Self-efficacy is an individual’s belief in their capability

this project, integrating remote education with PBL provides a robust framework for addressingSTEM education disparities. By leveraging technology and active learning methodologies, studentsin rural regions gain exposure to practical and theoretical STEM applications. Specific focus areasinclude: 1. Energy and Sustainability Projects: These topics resonate with rural students who often experience limited access to electricity. For example, designing sustainable microgrids serves both educational and community needs. 2. Interdisciplinary STEM Modules: PBL enables integration across science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, fostering holistic problem-solving skills. 3. Local Instructor Support

For STEM bachelor’s degree students in the United States, 48% leave STEMbefore completing their degree. They either switch to another major, or exit college beforeearning a degree [1]. This is of significant concern, as demand for skilled professionals in STEMis high, and attrition reduces the number of graduates available to fill these roles. STEM fieldsare critical for innovation and economic growth, and a lack of STEM talent impacts a country’sability to compete globally [1][2][3][4]. Research has shown that (among other factors),students’ belief in their own competence, how interesting or enjoyable they find tasks, and howmuch is required of

STEM job opportunities have grown faster than non-STEMcounterparts since 2010, and employment in many STEM occupations is projected to grow [1].Recently, many pre-college programs have been developed and implemented to increase highschool students’ interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Plentifulprior studies documented the positive impacts of such outreach efforts [2], [3], [4], [5], and [6],but how students’ evaluations change during the program remained an unanswered question.This
