Workshops to be held at ASEE conferences are also shownThe LC-DLM modules will be distributed through dissemination workshops held at eachnational hub over five years and directed by local hub coordinators. The first modules will bedistributed after the Year 1 workshop for hub-coordinators which occurred in March 2019.Attendees will be among the first implementers of LC-DLM cartridges including head loss,venturi, and double pipe and shell and tube heat exchanger modules in spring 2019. The hub-coordinators will therefore become highly experienced implementers before transferring theirknowledge to the second wave of implementers at other participating institutions in theirrespective hubs, and they will also drive the expansion of local interest in

There were instances where participants’discussed identity related items that did not seem to fit with Gee’s approach. To date, those itemshave been coded as “General Identity”. We are continuing to analyze interviews and areexamining additional identity frameworks to understand how our General Identity code mayconnect to Gee’s framework or other frameworks.Phase 2 InterviewsWe are currently preparing to conduct our Phase 2 interviews.

Background Goal-Congruity Theory (GCT) states that people are more likely to pursue a career thataffords the values they endorse (Diekman, 2010). From the perspective of a student, thereare two places that values are important: 1) what values does a student personally holddear? and 2) what opportunities does a student believe a given career provides for?
