It iscommonly recommended that undergraduate students gain research experience at the universitywhere the study took place, though what kind of research is not specified. There are severalmechanisms for students to become involved in research, through independent study credit, forhourly pay, or volunteering. It is not uncommon for research experience to vary dramaticallybetween labs, with regards to the tasks performed by undergraduate researchers or the level ofinput taken in project decisions.ParticipantsUsing purposive and snowball sampling [25], 14 students entering their third year, who were alsoplanning on engaging in at

critical reflection of the learner on the experience. Unlessembedded within a course as a service-learning activity (e.g. [13]), there may not be structuredreflection. This is particularly true in co-curricular activities, where advisors may worry thatformal reflection would deter college students from participating. However, the reflection couldoccur informally via a group discussion.Giles and Eyler [11] cite Dewey’s [12] four criteria for projects to be truly educative. The fourcriteria are: generate interest, worthwhile intrinsically, problems that demand new information,and cover a considerable time span. K-12 activities are often designed to be fun, so they arelikely to generate interest on behalf of both the college student and K-12 kids

This work is part of a larger project that aimsto review engineering education research with respect to LGBTQIA+ students, higher educationfaculty and staff, and industry professionals. This literature review was conducted in two phases.First, works from non-engineering disciplines were reviewed to identify popular threads andmajor areas of research on the LGBTQIA+ student experience. This phase was not an exhaustivereview; rather, it was meant to establish specific themes of importance derived from the largerbody of literature on the LGBTQIA+ student experience

The traditional mode of education presupposes the instructor as an authority“depositing” knowledge into the “clean-slates” (students’ minds), who in turn regurgitate thatdeposited (memorized) knowledge in assessments. This is described as the banking concept ofeducation by Freire [1]. This model discourages creative engagement of the student with theworld and encourages uncritical acceptance of the oppressive power structures. This process
