This question provides insight into a student’s feelings of a science identity, or asso-ciating their identity with their career choice. Again, as documented in Rainey et al. [9], scienceidentity provides perspective on a sense of belonging. As seen in Figure 4, in 2019, 67.8% ofstudents did not feel like typical computer scientists. In 2020, 57.9% of our students did not feeltypical. In 2020, we found a statistically significant difference between men and women

Thus, they discover that the loadresistance must be much greater than the resistances selected for the divider.The remaining three class meetings in the first section of the subject are similar in pace andstructure. We will highlight the main features of them in the balance of this section.Week 2.In the second week we introduce diodes and LEDs, and the students investigate theability of an diode to act as a simple voltage regulator.

Two of the studentsindicated that they were honor students in high school and that they had to work harder at theuniversity to earn high grades in the engineering, science, and mathematics courses. There was aconsistent concern expressed about graduating on time. These were students who were still intheir first two years of their engineering courses. Taking more than four years to finish theirundergraduate degree was not agreeable to them even though they knew that many engineeringstudents do balance their course load over five or

explanation for this is that, on average, faculty spend the most time with53 students, compared with staff, administrators, and advisors. For most courses offered in higher education,54 this time is at least three hours per week; for research mentoring, the faculty contact time can increase55 dramatically [12]. Classroom interactions between students and faculty have a significant potential to56 influence students’ graduation path [13]. Yet, concerning the instruction by faculty, engineering students57 reported that the quality of instruction in engineering was lower than in their non-engineering courses58 [14], [15].
