Many participantsindicated that earning good grades in the transfer program increased their confidence andengineering self-efficacy. Persistence in a chosen engineering disciplinary major and re-enrollment on a semester-by-semester basis were other ways that participants assessed theirsuccess.

socialization [14]. He argued that learning occurs through interactions andcommunications with others, and further examined the impact of social environments in thelearning process. Consequently, he proposed that a learning environment needs to promote andmaximize collaboration, peer instruction, and social learning through discussion, collaboration,and feedback. Furthermore, Bandura proposed a social learning theory arguing that people canlearn new information and behaviors through socializing [26]. This theory guides educators torecognize how important it is to practice proper models of study skills and teamwork in theclassroom to construct self-efficacy of the learners.Social learning can be implemented in different ways, however, the main notion of

The Office of International Student & Scholar Services at Florida InternationalUniversity reported a total of 2,738 international students, out of which 57% are at theundergraduate level. The lack of self-efficacy was also exhibited in some of the responses, as itseems students are afraid of the course load. One student explains: “I think the program is verychallenging and intimidating; I wanted to apply but I do not know if I have the ability to do it.”Another respondent describes that being that it is a STEM degree, students need to be well-disciplined to manage this heavier course load and thus suggesting that it is not for everyone.Others expressed “being

The separationin time and context across different courses could account for this lack of connection 2.Unfortunately, this lack of connection and understanding could impact students’ attrition rates.The graduation rate of engineering students has stayed consistently around 50% for more than 60years 3–8. Some of the many factors that contribute to these low rates include classroom andacademic climate (e.g., feeling of engagement and teaching styles), grades and conceptualunderstanding, self-efficacy and self-confidence, high school preparation, interest, and careergoals, and race and gender 9. Moreover, factors such as low grades and lack of conceptualunderstanding may drive students away 9. Hence, there

, 2013 [3]) sums up the status of K-12education in the US. Several programs have been launched aimed at remedying this situation.Project-based active learning opportunities have been empirically determined to be effective in studentengagement and learning (Prince 2004 [4]; Thomas, 2000 [5]). Project-based learning environmentscan be designed to enhance teamwork, communication skills, understanding of application of STEM inreal life, and self-efficacy. Unfortunately, schools that primarily serve under-represented groups oftendo not have the resources to provide such learning environments. Simply stated, there is a longer-termneed to have more students target STEM related careers, and the best way to do this is via engaginghands-on project-based

The purpose of the second face-to-face session was to prepare theparticipants adequately for their independent project, and in retrospect, more hands-onexperience with the hardware/software is necessary for participant success. Future individualengineering projects should start with a simpler model that could be upgraded to a moreadvanced design for participants that are more skilled.

Hsu et al. [11] found that while elementary school teachers believed that it was importantto incorporate engineering into their curricula, they did not feel confident to teach the concepts.A possible solution is to have PSTs implement engineering lessons in a supported and low-riskcontext. This strategy was found to be a powerful mediator of self-efficacy in a recent study within-service teachers [12]. One means to provide a supportive environment is to partner PSTs withengineering students as they develop lessons. One study found that

teachers do not have a sufficient understanding of engineering concepts [6]. Otherstudies show that K-12 science teachers often do not have any background in engineering [7].Another possible reason for the difficulties that teachers have had in incorporating engineeringinto their science classes is that many teachers lack self-efficacy in teaching engineering [5] [8][9]. In order for teachers to overcome these challenges, there is a need for improved professionallearning opportunities for science teachers focused on teaching engineering.There is a significant push for such professional learning opportunities for K-12 science teachersacross the country.

We employ a full array ofmathematical tools (from algebra through calculus and differential equations) throughout thesemester. In the beginning, the students struggle with vector notation (both how to do it and whatit means physically) and they have little confidence in their calculus skills. Regular practicemoves them toward better self-efficacy. Students can generally do much more than we initiallyexpect, but they need the support and encouragement to get there.

Mastery offers the benefits of higher intrinsic motivation,enjoyment, self-efficacy, and deep learning or conceptual achievement for its own sake [8]. Incontrast, a performance-based approach emphasizes competition between students and is notonly less predictive of STEM success [8], but also less conducive in principle to a constructiveand equitable classroom culture.Discovery uses a PBL approach to encourage secondary students in Grade 11 or 12 university-preparatory biology, chemistry, or physics classes at two participating schools to develop STEMskills through iterative course-long learning.

In the Spring of 2020, the authors will begin toevaluate the impact of the inclusion of this technology on students’ learning as it relates to theirself-efficacy, motivation, degree of engagement, and sense of belonging. The evaluation planwill entail a series of pre-test and post-test experiments. All students will receive pre-testmaterial based on the dependent measures, which include self-efficacy, motivation, degree ofengagement, and sense of belonging. These measures have already been constructed andvalidated and will provide a baseline. The authors aim at using the surveys developed by theLawrence Hall of
