We noticed that both scholars included the “thriving” component at the top oftheir diagram despite describing flourishing and self-actualization as ongoing processes and notend goals. Furthermore, both scholars represent their main competencies in distinct categoriesfrom each other. Many positive psychology researchers group together the competencies that arehighly correlated to reduce redundancies in their frameworks. Finally, both scholars includedcompetencies that reflect those determined in engineering thriving, including achievement (suchas academic performance or mastering skills), interpersonal (such as

well as in engineering-relatedsubjects [7]. Aleta also stated that the engineering design experience was found to be the mainindicator of academic achievements in both math and related engineering subjects [7]. Self-efficacy is defined as one’s belief in one’s ability to achieve a specific task or succeedin a particular area by achieving the intended results [8]. For students, this may dictate theiracademic execution from a cognitive aspect, as their personal efficacy can positively influencetheir outlook on performance and potential to succeed. Bandura illustrates the importance ofacademic self-efficacy by asserting that “students’ beliefs in their efficacy to regulate their ownlearning and to master academic activities determine their

Unlike lower achieving students, who simply stated grades as their entireresponse, higher achieving students indicated they “notice what works” and sought to be moreefficient with their time.

This is furtheredby the next survey response correlation [Q4 and Q14, p = 0.030, Corr -0.452].While faculty did not generally believe that writing was an effective tool for engineering education,they did show a relationship for their engagement in professional writing and their belief that it isimportant for students to write well. The faculty who often engage in professional writing see animportance in correctly educating engineering undergraduates how to perform it, but do not viewwriting itself as a powerful educational tool in engineering education. This places writing in aninteresting location, where it is important for engineers to learn how to do (and master), but

Oncethey do become informed about the duties and daily activities of engineering professionals,previously misinformed students leave engineering majors [5].One key factor (often overlooked by K-12 teachers) that differentiates engineering from otherSTEM disciplines is emphasis on open-ended experimental problem solving [6].
