One hypothesis is that the gender imbalance could be due to ambientidentity cues that do not accurately portray a fully representative population [4]. With theunveiling of a new

Further, there isno research in our field that focuses on understanding the development of and the connectionsbetween metacognition and epistemic cognition.The goal of this project is to explore the decisions and processes civil engineering students useduring their senior design projects to understand how students assess the reasonableness of theirwork.Theoretical FrameworkFor this project, we will be drawing from two theoretical constructs -- epistemic cognition andmetacognition.

Assessment of theengineering identity and mindset during the sophomore year will be done to both understand thegrowing diverse student body and to suggest changes in student and faculty engagement andinstructional activities.

EngineeringFaculties’ Responses to Nature of Engineering Instrument (Work-In-Progress) AbstractEngineering faculty have advanced experiences with engineering that non-engineers do nothave, but what Nature of Engineering (NOE) concepts do engineering researchers hold? For K-12 engineering education, having an informed NOE understanding is an essential part ofengineering literacy. Yet for the higher education engineering community, NOE is hardly everdiscussed. Understanding engineering faculties’ NOE views can be a valuable contribution tocurrent NOE research. Our project is part of a collaboration between a southwestern US highereducation institute and a Vietnamese University. The cohort of Vietnamese engineering
