yearimplementation of the TDGs, group discussion focused on group leader planning and progress,the role of the group leaders, and successes with the group and concerns about the group. Forexample in September, the discussion focused on the nature of the meetings. One group leaderstated, “we plan to meet once a month.” Later in the semester, group leaders discussed the natureof their interactive teaching changes. One group leader, “I ask questions… on notecards… [thestudents] have a choice: to ask me a question or being asked a question. And they getmicrophones and I call like 30 cards a session. So, it is part of the whole lecture experience.” Inthe second semester, discussion focused on the progress of teaching development groupmembers toward making

“First you draw out your plans, then you collect your supplies, then you build his body, then you code it on this. You can keep going around again if you have enough time, so you could maybe attach an arm here and make it move like this.” Mina (pseudonym), Middle School studentThese excerpts were captured in video-recorded interviews of elementary and middle schoolstudents who participated in girls’ engineering afterschool programs in Seattle and Washington,DC. Researchers used artifact elicitation interviews to assess girls’ understanding of the cyclicalnature of the engineering design process. In the first interview excerpt, Samara offered a succinctexplanation. She explained the engineering design process as a cycle, saying

(pause)…”Relating critical thinking to engineering course conceptsAlthough students struggled with articulating their thoughts, students did tend to relate ideas ofcritical thinking to engineering concepts they deal with in the classroom. These engineeringcourse concepts include: applying a framework/plan; weighing, selecting, and testing options(selection and design); using background knowledge; and using problem solving. For instanceone student explained the critical thinking process in a design course as: There’s a coach but no one tells you what to do or how to solve the problem. You’re expected to understand the problem, come up with

Ouranalysis suggests that the other eight temporal and spatial features still have value, but may becorrelated with these two features.In our continued work, we plan to improve our features and develop additional ones to bettercharacterize a solution history. For example, we anticipated that the complexity feature would bemore useful than it was. It is possible that this feature may confuse some forms of highlyorganized work with disorganized work. For example, when a student alternates betweendrawing free body diagrams and writing the associated equilibrium

Thispaper will serve to suggest and provide support for another option in changing students’ view ofSTEM fields, through a week-long bioengineering commuter summer camp for high schoolstudents.Theoretical Perspective Borrowing from the field of child development, Bronfenbrenner’s Person-Process-Context-Time(PPCT) ecological theory was utilized as a foundation for assessment planning. PPCT ecologicaltheory posits that development results from “multidirectional and interactional processes,”occurring over time, between developing individuals and the context in which they learn, work,and live. Though Bronfenbrenner’s Person-Process-Context-Time (PPCT) model has been usedin child development research, it is rarely seen, if ever, seen in educational

Furthermore, weare interested in testing different engineering disciplines and comparing their self-assessedand judged scores. This research effort continues, and we plan to elaborate by presentingfirst-year and senior-year students with more open-ended problems multiple timesthroughout a semester. Additionally, our panel of experts are still judging the students’solutions for creativity and validity. In the future, we may expand our judging panel toinclude engineers from industry as their perception of creativity may or may not bedifferent.

One way to assess active learning is to assess the depth of the studentinteractions. These interactions may be assessed by recording, transcribing, and analyzingstudent dialogues. Our question is: What important design features for active learning sessions can be identified by the use of brief analyses of student dialogue?This case study examines the student dialogues in four sequential active learning sessions.

This meansthat there are many contingencies to investigate in terms of how students ultimately landin their first and subsequent jobs within the first few years of graduating. Providing somegranularity to the picture, Brunhaver’s study of recent engineering graduates indicatesthat while the majority of graduates were working in engineering-focused positions fouryears after graduation, about 20% of graduates were working in non-engineering focusedpositions.6 We note that although demographic factors did not seem to differentiatepathways at this stage, co

In this paper, domain-general(Connectedness, Value), domain-specific (Perceptions of the Future, Present on Future, Futureon Present), and context-specific constructs (Perceived Instrumentality) were considered. Ingeneral, Value, often termed valence, is the “anticipated subjective value”[14] (p. 567) of futuregoals for a person; thus students may place a higher value or hold one goal in higher regard thananother goal. The second domain-general FTP construct, Connectedness, is “general feeling ofconnectedness to and planfulness about the future” [15] (p. 116). Perceived Instrumentality (PI)[15]–[17] is a context-specific variation of connectedness

In the first step, thestudent reads the problem statement and identifies the objective. This step depends of thestudents’ ability to determine the structure of the problem and identify the concepts and formulasnecessary to solve it. During the second step, students must develop a path to reach the solution.The Execution step is where the student carries out

This research considers three different theories; future timeperspective, interest, and belongingness. Future time perspective generally offers explanationsfor choices students make as they plan for their futures. Two facets of future time perspectiveinclude (1) how engineering students see the present task as instrumental for their future asengineers – perceived instrumentality, and (2) how engineering students connect the presentactivities with their future engineering goals – career connectedness [11].

Insteadwe postulate that such differences inform students’ socialization into engineering and, as a result,their patterns of co-curricular participation. Weidman defines socialization as “the process bywhich individuals acquire the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that make them more or lesseffective members of their society” [5].
