Our goal in this research is similarto the goal of the NSF ADVANCE program, which is to “fix the system” not “fix the women.”6 Our study contributes to understandings of navigational capital by illuminating how Pell-eligible students glean non-traditional resources from their lives and use them to navigateinstitutions of higher education in successful pursuit of engineering degrees.III.

However, I believe that the way the school system is currently set up, rote learning is rewarded favorably over conceptual learning. While a conceptual learning style would be favorable on exams if the concepts were allowed to be solidified in students' minds, 10-week terms packed to the brim with engineering work does not allow time for some conceptual learners to attain confidence with the concepts.

Attendance was not enforced, thus thepercent of students who attend class sessions (both face-to-face and online synchronous) variedfrom lecture to lecture, from about 75% to 100%.The variability in student enrollment and participation necessitate special teaching techniques tohelp students in their learning process. With that in mind and with the objective of helpingstudents to achieve preparedness for the workforce, the instructor assigns a semester-long projectwhere the students have to use all the engineering tools learned in class to design four pumpedpipeline systems in a hypothetical new plant facility.

There hasbeen some previous research investigating relationships between demographic variables andengineering fields, but leaves out the student perspectives and expectations in choosing a major[11]. With this in mind, we focus on engineering specifically with our data from students in firstyear engineering coursework analyzing their expectations by reading the response data fromsurveys.A large portion of previously conducted major selection research comes from the perspective oftrying to introduce more people into STEM fields.

But I don’t know if I can really say I dislike the work because it wouldn’t be as rewarding if there wasn’t that much work involved (Persister, Structured Interview 1). For this student, the outcomes of taking engineering courses was rewarding partly because of the hard work that he put into them. Another persisting student discussed her learning in her engineering classes: It'd be nice to take the other classes and know more. But I don't mind taking the engineering classes because I feel like I'm also learning in those. And so it’s not really too big a trade off for me.
