classroom settings. Unlike conventional coursework, whichtypically emphasizes theoretical knowledge, REUs immerse students in the practical aspects ofscientific research (Kim et al., 2011; Kelley et al., 2019). This experiential learning approach notonly enhances students' understanding of scientific processes but also cultivates critical thinkingand problem-solving skills that are invaluable in real-world applications (Kolon & Mabrouk,2022). By participating in research, students can clarify their career goals and gain insights intothe nature of scientific work, which can significantly influence their academic trajectories (Kolon& Mabrouk, 2022; Bosman et al., 2023). Moreover, the collaborative nature of REU programsfosters a sense of

The instrument wasapplied at the end of the second semester in 2022 to undergraduate students enrolled in variouscourses at the School of Engineering of a private Chilean university. From a universe of 2428students, 369 voluntary responses were received, of which 328 responses were declared valid.As researchers we acknowledge that gender is a non-binary construct, however the data reportedcomes in binary terms, as less than 1% of responses originates from students who did notidentify as male or female. Therefore, from the 328 responses, 10.4% came from femalestudents and 89.6% from male students. The sample

% between fall 2009 and 2020. (i.e., 17.5 million to 15.9 million students) [16]. A recent report from National Student Clearinghouse Research Center [17] showed that in spring 2022, overall postsecondary enrollment declined by 4.1 percent or around 685,000 students compared to spring 2021. This includes both undergraduate and graduate students. One direct cause for the decline in student enrollment at an undergraduate college can be explained using the pyramid effect, where PENG programs and other engineering prerequisite courses in K–12 public schools are at the bottom of the pyramid, and university engineering graduates are at the top [18]. Since fewer students attend the bottom of the "pyramid," or PENG programs, leading to fewer graduates

At the end of the term, the teaching teamonce again drew the students’ attention to the path of learning that they had travelled, remindingthem that although there were many small assessments over the term, the final learning outcomeswere achieved.
