Nuclear Science and Engineering. Each individual research project is overseenby a faculty member within their lab, often with direct mentorship from a graduate student orpost-doctoral fellow. Several communication deliverables - a proposal, a conference poster, ajournal article and an oral presentation - are required throughout the year, based on eachstudent’s research.We have two principal challenges. First, our students’ numerous and varied engineeringdisciplines each possess their own underlying and often tacit reasoning patterns, habits of mind,and foundational assumptions2, see also 3-6 - all of which must be taken into account as studentscommunicate their research. Second, the tacit quality of these assumptions and mental processescreates

people's experiences and identities. Forinstance, we need to mindful of modern definitions of gender including gender fluidity andtransgender. With detailed, modern categories, we would have the data to analyze through thelens of intersectionality, which emphasizes intersections between forms or systems ofoppression. Intersectionality studies disaggregate categories such as "underrepresented minority"and "women," which hide the experiences and stories of distinct groups such as Latino males andAfrican American females. We realize gathering this data is difficult in engineering given thesmall populations of some groups, but this is not an excuse and underscores the need for multi-institutional data sets4,5 and qualitative research focused on small

allowed forclear product performance goals and a focus on technical problem solving. As Summer noted: I mean in order to innovate something new I feel like you have to have some type of goal in mind, I mean there has to be a purpose to everything to meet at least. Otherwise it’s not like a solution to anything, and I think that engineers try to solve problems usually. And if you don’t have a goal in mind why are you doing the project, you know?... And then also to see if it’s an actual possible thing we can do. I mean I think goals pretty much go hand in hand with innovation.While these students more thoroughly experienced the process of innovation, and to a lesserextent other-oriented elements of innovation

Makers are rich in creative confidence,with expertise in the ability to learn new skills as needed rather than already possessingimmediate solutions to the problems that they encounter.2 Creative confidence, in terms ofDesign Thinking, can be summed up as a failure positive mode of learning where the creatortrusts in their own ability to solve problems.3 This confidence comes from an understanding thatproblems have many solutions, and through practical experience, one can learn those solutions.Making comes from an imaginative, creative mind-space, and is often done outside the confinesof established engineering education curricular activities.4 Making has a do-it-yourself ethos andis historically rooted in

According to these recommendations2 engineering education should 1)emphasize engineering design; 2) incorporate important and developmentally appropriatemathematics, science, and technology knowledge and skills; and 3) promote engineering “habitsof mind.”The majority of research studies focus on measureable outcomes of K-12 engineering educationprograms. Some have focused on enhanced engineering career awareness.3,4 Others havefocused on increased understanding of engineering design principles.5,6 Yet others have focusedon increased awareness of the ways engineers apply science and mathematics functions andprocedures.7 In all, these assessments of children’s

Two commonly discussed reasons for students leaving STEM fields are academicdifficulty and failure to integrate effectively into the campus community or feelings ofisolation/not fitting in2. A space of this nature, in theory, would address both of these concerns –it would provide academic support and also provide a welcoming atmosphere that allows fornatural interaction with like-minded peers within the larger campus community. Prior to thecreation of this center, many informal study alcoves and spaces existed within classroombuildings on the campus, but none that were staffed or provided consistent access to resources.ImplementationA classroom in one of the two engineering academic
