engineering design studentsAbstractThis evidence-based practice paper describes the use of creativity practice exercises intended toenhance student creativity in a capstone design program. Engineering programs, in general, andcapstone design programs, in particular, that seek innovative conceptual solutions to complexproblems would benefit from techniques to develop and assess student creativity. Therefore, astudy was performed to evaluate two such techniques. Over the first two years of the study,capstone design students in the United States Air Force Academy’s Department of EngineeringMechanics were each assigned to one of 14 teams which received various learning experiences(treatments) intended to enhance individual creativity and design project

Innovative Intervention to Infuse Diversity and Inclusion in a Statics CourseAbstractEngineering educators strive to prepare their students for success in the engineering workforce.Increasingly, many career paths will require engineering graduates to work in multidisciplinaryteams with individuals possessing a diversity of skill sets, backgrounds, and identities. Therefore,it is important not only for future engineers to have the opportunity to work in teams as students,but also to have specific instruction that teaches them about teamwork skills and the valuediversity and inclusion bring to engineering practice. Furthermore, it is important that thisinstruction occurs throughout their engineering coursework, giving

the language is only a meansto social gains with very little interest in the culture or the community of people who speak thelanguage. On the contrary, the integrative orientation implies a personal involvement or desireto connect with the community that speaks the language, get access to its culture or evenbecome a member of the group. The former distinction is not supposed to be taken as amutually exclusive dichotomy since there is an element of instrumentality in the integrativeorientation [21] [22]. The remaining sections of this paper will present a study on language attitudes amongundergraduate students enrolled in an engineering public university.

Engagement, or a student’sactive involvement in a task or activity, is important because (among other things) it is linked toretention and graduation rates [4]. Luckily for us, of the 11 engagement indicators used by theNSSE study [4], many of them can be addressed but supporting the 3 antecedents of motivationabove. Others, including effective teaching practices (e.g. clearly explaining ​learning objectives​,using examples to explain difficult points) are addressed in other guides in this series.Cited References[1] R.

Though theclasses were taught in different manners, they were identical in terms of assignments, quizzes,and exams. The classes shared a common Gradescope online grade database, in whichhomework sets, quizzes, and exams were uploaded and graded using a common set of metrics.Homework sets and quizzes were graded by student graders, whereas the exams were graded byinstructors. Each homework, quiz, or exam problem was graded by the same person across allclass sections, e.g. the first midterm exam was graded by only two instructors, who each gradedone of the two exam questions

A review of the literature conductedby Geisinger and Raman [4] identified a set of factors that contribute to the attrition of students.These factors include classroom and academic environment including teaching and advising,grades and conceptual understanding, self-efficacy and self-confidence determined by highschool preparation in math and science among others. Engineering educators have argued thatpersonal and socio-economic factors can contribute to the attrition of students; however, there isa proportion of engineering students that leave because of the educational system.

During the last two decades substantial efforthas been expended towards reconciling developing students with what can be broadly defined asSTEM identities. Considerable recent research broadly on STEM identities [e.g. 3-21], includingseparate considerations of science, engineering and math identities, has focused on the identitiesof groups and intersectionalities underrepresented in STEM disciplines and careers. But, someresearch also suggests that merely inserting a STEM label, e.g. science or scientist, into adiscussion unleashes implicit biases of gender, race and ethnicity in middle school children [14].Surveys to assess self-efficacy and
