STEM. Self-efficacy can be fosteredin STEM environments and can assist with building student confidence in ways which promotestheir persistence and success in STEM education [15]. Promoting student self-efficacy requiresthe utilization of a strengths-based approach which encourages students to develop a growthmindset and resilience [6], [24], while also encouraging faculty to integrate inclusive teachingpedagogies [25] and to maintain a healthy balance of challenge and support for students [23].Sense of belonging is also important to student persistence in STEM, and has been defined as abasic human and psychological need to feel connected, valued and respected [26]. A lack ofsense of belonging can contribute to mental health and academic

A project grading rubric was provided for students to self-assess thequality of their work against the project expectations. Students also had access to an inspectionthermal imaging camera, anemometers, and various mechatronics sensors.There were several expected student learning outcomes from this project. It was expected thatthroughout the project students would be able to: 1. Use the engineering design process to produce solutions that meet specified needs with special consideration to

In 2004, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) published The Engineer of 202010which offered a vision for the engineering profession. The document cited the need for stronganalytical skills, practical ingenuity, communication skills, business and managementknowledge, leadership, high ethical standards, professionalism, dynamism, agility, resilience,flexibility, and lifelong learning. NAE furthered these ideas in 2005 with the publication ofEducating the Engineer of 2020. This work called upon engineering leaders to “adapt to new

discussed in previouschapters, multiple lenses informed the analysis of the data. These lenses include FeministPoststructuralism, Resilience, and Sense-Making. Feminist Poststructuralism highlights fouraspects of poststructuralism theory as previously defined by Foucault. The least that a feminist poststructuralism can do is explain the assumptions underlying the questions asked and answered … making their political [and social] assumptions explicit. Poststructuralism can also indicate the types of discourse from which particular feminist questions come, and locate them both socially and institutionally [21, p. 20].By focusing on the four tenets of the frame focused understanding and meaning

It is throughthis failure itself that they learn how to evaluate, iterate, and revalue to solve problems anew.Similarly to the rogue-like games outlined in the previous sections, with each ‘failure’ unlock-ing a new way of approaching the problem.
