American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 The Endeavour S-STEM Program: A Multi-College Collaboration to Increase Engagement & Retention in STEMIntroductionThe United States has long held its position as the global leader in technological innovation andeducation. But that standing has been in jeopardy due to the shortage of domestic studentsgraduating in STEM. This concern has led researchers to investigate why graduation numbers areso low and also to propose ways in which STEM retention and hence graduation can beincreased. The data show that there are

Still, the verdict of independent scholars studying our program has been that we are notthat different, and our efforts at innovation may not be having their intended effect.51 Moreover,the structure of accreditation limits change at our institution and in other new and innovativeengineering programs.52I have pragmatically used EC 2000 as a motivation or justification for the use of criticalpedagogies and for liberal education reforms in the engineering curriculum. At the same time,EC 2000 undercuts some goals of critical pedagogies (and in fact ABET’s own lifelong learningoutcome) by reinforcing the idea of credentialing as the central purpose of an

The invitation included a description of the study and anassurance of confidentiality.Informed consent was obtained from the study participants in writing before any questions wereposed. Discussions were facilitated by one author and a faculty colleague, neither of whom hadserved as an instructor for any WGS class. Focus group facilitators provided copies of the WGS250 reading list as a way of reminding participants of past course content and providingreference points for specific reading and authors.

Since the study of engineering at theundergraduate level has not traditionally provided a foundation for the practice of any professionother than engineering, few non-engineering students take engineering courses for purely utilitar-ian reasons.

Many of the ideas mentioned in this section are ideas that students learned about in theirintroductory design courses. Another student also mentioned how the idea of empathy can also connect tothe Jesuit tradition of educating the whole person. Specifically, they talked about the practice of“examenitos,” or short contemplative reflections about their day, that allowed them to “practicemindfulness, gratitude, and reimagine our own experiences and conditions… all of which create a moreholistic brand of engineering (Mystical Mango).” Humanity.

As such, their perceptions of theseconnections are possibly different than those of the authors, who might see social media as eithera distraction, or a potential “add-on,” to the learning and practice of engineering.Increasing our understanding of the students’ attitudes and dispositions towards social media,engineering and leadership can inform the development of engineering education and practice.Therefore, this study explores two related research questions: 1. How are social media, engineering and leadership related to one another from a student perspective? 2. How do student self-perceptions of their leadership skills change
