Thus, Discourse gives students their sense ofself, what they do, and how they must act every day to fit in a particular culture (i.e.,engineering).Discourses are socially situated identities and highly influence the social context in whichknowledge and certain practices materialize. Discourses influence how individuals practice andengage in different activities, including engineering. Based on Gee’s [11] definition ofDiscourse, engineering can be described not only as a cognitive process but also as part of alarger engineering Discourse that is not

and belonging in engineering culture. The inequality of women in engineering has beenattributed to persistent male-dominated cultures and women’s difficulty establishing themselvesas legitimate engineers. In 1993, McIlwee [1] found that men’s identities in engineering centeredaround “tinkering” hobbies and passion for technology. Women’s interest in engineering, incontrast, was typically more academic and less “hands on”. In her ethnographic work withengineering students, Tonso [2] argued that despite a wide range of normative engineeringidentities, none of them were associated with women. Ten years later, McLoughlin [3] arguedthat while some women were drawn to engineering through the “traditional” pathway of passionfor technology, there is
