CWIT hasimplemented three S-STEM Scholars programs since 2007. The first, “Scholarships in IT &Engineering (SITE)” (DUE-0630952) served 30 students through spring 2011, 50% of whom werewomen or underrepresented minorities.

These distractors are typically influenced by student responses to find commonlymisconceived concepts. The engineering graphics CI is framed around 10 main conceptsidentified by a Delphi study comprised of graphics professionals [2]. More information regardingthe origin of this particular CI and the Delphi study can be found in Sadowski, M and Sorby, S.2013 and 2014.Solid modeling constructs were identified as important by the Delphi panel [3] but the pilot studyof the CI using the original CAD-related questions developed by the researchers did not

Some of them completed a trainingat the beginning of their program, while others did not, as department-level training was notprovided on a regular basis. In addition, the GTAs reported that, before joining the SIMPLEgroup, they did not often have opportunities to interact with fellow GTAs and faculty membersto talk about teaching.

We expand upon this concept by making explicit therelationship between facilitating individual success and valuing each team member, where astudent can experience more success when s/he is valued. Arguably, creating opportunities forstudents to engage in robust teamwork can be facilitated when educators increase students’awareness about the benefits of valuing all team members, a construct that is often implied butnot explicitly discussed in teamwork literature.Creating an environment free of discrimination and bias is the second construct we address in theInclusive Behaviors scale.
