based on our past experiences, cultural perspectives, innocuous misconceptions, orsubjective biases. Measuring these different mental models poses a unique challenge sinceconceptualizations are held in the mind and any description of them is simply a representation ofthe mental model and not the mental model itself; in other words, we are seeing a reflection ofthe mental model through a dirty mirror. In this work, the previously published instruments usedto elicit undergraduate students’ mental models [1-3] are deployed without intervention to makeprogress on validation of the instruments for future research studies, therefore cleaning thatmetaphorical mirror. Despite the impossibility of perfectly representing a mental model, thiswork takes a

Moreover, women show greater commitment to community service in theirfaculty roles [23] and are more likely to pursue service as scholarship [24] [25] [26]. Park notesthat some responses to this gendered division of labor problematize women [17]. For example,women are often advised to become better at saying no to service requests in order to prioritizeresearch. She argues that such advice reflects sexist attitudes pervasive in our society thatundervalue nurturing tasks (child rearing, teaching, advising, mentoring) and communal servicetasks (departmental and institutional service) often undertaken by females. Moreover, Parkargues that

The subscales associatedwith the latter set of indicators (experiences with faculty) are similar to faculty support andstudent-faculty interaction scales used in other research efforts. In contrast, the four subscalesassociated with academic challenge reflect what students actually do in their academic endeavorsby measuring time on task associated with the various skills that students use and develop duringtheir college experience [15].Studies which focus on the emotional aspects of engagement are

Measures ofstudents’ self-reported commitment to career have primarily been used by others as outcomevariables [10], [11]. In our analysis, we model the possibility that commitment to an engineeringcareer may serve as a motivator to obtain the knowledge and credential often necessary forstudents to obtain their occupational goals. Because these are early career students, we expectthem to have relatively low commitment to the field of engineering in this baseline data, butmodeling their expressions of commitment throughout their undergraduate education may helpus better understand their

, “Students’ agency beliefs involve how students see andthink about STEM as a way to better themselves and the world along with being a critic ofthemselves and science in general [20, p. 939]. The critical thinking perspective is intimately tiedto engineering agency beliefs, where students become “evaluator[s] of STEM as well as becomecritics of themselves and the world around them through self-reflection” [39, p. 13]. In essence,agency beliefs in this framework are based on a spectrum of how students view engineering as away to change their world or the world at large.Most agentic frameworks in engineering education used qualitative research methods.

Inaddition, teachers also noted that they especially enjoyed the lecture topics that coincided directlywith lab experiments, as this gave them a sense of how-to best design lessons for their own studentsby being able to actively take on a learner’s perspective. These comments were made immediatelyafter the first 2-weeks of the PD program.
