. Expectancy-value theory (EVT)suggests that achievement-related decisions reflect individuals’ expectations of success orcompetence beliefs related to a particular task, and the subjective task value they associate with agiven option17, 18, 19. These beliefs and values are shaped by individuals’ personal identities, pastexperiences, the social context in which they are embedded, and their interactions with a givenset of cultural norms18, 19. Eccles and colleagues identify four types of subjective task value:  Interest-enjoyment value: the extent to which an individual anticipates enjoying an activity. This type of value is likely to be integrated into an individuals’ self-concept.  Attainment-achievement value: how a choice aligns with

For subjective or summative artifacts, like reflective essays ordesign reports that may not have specific required components, a holistic rubric may align betterwith the desired outcomes. Often, a holistic rubric has performance criteria defined within asingle rating system for the entire work and doesn’t provide much performance feedback as partof the rubric itself [16]. For either type of rubric, performance criteria must be developed.

Measures ofstudents’ self-reported commitment to career have primarily been used by others as outcomevariables [10], [11]. In our analysis, we model the possibility that commitment to an engineeringcareer may serve as a motivator to obtain the knowledge and credential often necessary forstudents to obtain their occupational goals. Because these are early career students, we expectthem to have relatively low commitment to the field of engineering in this baseline data, butmodeling their expressions of commitment throughout their undergraduate education may helpus better understand their

, “Students’ agency beliefs involve how students see andthink about STEM as a way to better themselves and the world along with being a critic ofthemselves and science in general [20, p. 939]. The critical thinking perspective is intimately tiedto engineering agency beliefs, where students become “evaluator[s] of STEM as well as becomecritics of themselves and the world around them through self-reflection” [39, p. 13]. In essence,agency beliefs in this framework are based on a spectrum of how students view engineering as away to change their world or the world at large.Most agentic frameworks in engineering education used qualitative research methods.

But we found the distance Rebecca sought to achieve from beingcategorized as an engineer reflected more of a desire for her individual agency rather than any disdain forengineering. This desire for agency was particularly heightened in light of her participation in engineeringas a woman. She described how others’ perception of her, in particular as a woman in engineering,invaded her individual sense of control of her choice to exist as an engineering major: I’m a girl so I think a lot of people [will say], “Good for you.” Sometimes it makes me feel

acknowledge that these groupings are narrow basedon the available data. Uneven population sizes from the resulting separation is due in part to themany students who had a neighborhood socioeconomic that was the same value as the quartilemedians. This challenge in data analysis alone emphasizes the need for study of low-socioeconomic students and their relatively few pathways into engineering. Students who attendcollege in engineering majors are surprisingly homogeneous in their neighborhood socioeconomicstatus. These groupings reflect the engineering student population, and thus provide informationon the types of attitudes toward and experiences with STEM that engineering students in a college-going population have by socioeconomic status in

Ninety-two responses for eachsubscale were coded and used to calculate the mean. Because the statements alternate betweenthe positive and negative, care is taken when calculating the mean [20] for each subscale. Thelatest research suggests that negatively worded items should not be used because they measuredifferent constructs [22]. To address this issue, items from even numbered statements werereverse scored before calculating the mean score.

There aredangers, however, that as qualitative research becomes more common the ways in which itis used fail to reflect quality approaches. One early work critiqued inconsistencies betweenespoused and practiced epistemologies in qualitative papers (Koro-Ljungberg & Douglas,2008). Other authors have critiqued interpretive methods, such as thematic analysis, forresulting in superficial descriptions of phenomena that do not provide meaningful insight(Jackson & Mazzei, 2012; St. Pierre, 2000; St. Pierre & Jackson, 2014) Another concern isthat the qualitative approaches described in papers and textbooks can become seen aschecklists that must be followed, rather than

A prerequisite forcollaborating productively is to purposefully design and facilitate a robust learning environmentwhere people recognize and work to decrease their own biases. While overt forms ofdiscrimination and bias exist, there are implicit forms of discrimination and bias as well. Tomediate implicit bias, for example, Project Implicit (2011) is a multi-institutional and multi-disciplinary initiative that uses research and practical tips to help people recognize where theyare subconsciously treating people differently and enacting discrimination.

Second, we identified Team-based learning (TBL) and active learning exercises(ALEx) as two teaching methods, which have been proposed in the literature as alternatives toconventional teaching [5],[6]. Furthermore, these innovative TMs may have potential forwidespread implementation in university teaching. Third, we analyzed and evaluated the twoidentified TMs against the identified criteria for good teaching of large classes and we discussthe limitations of our study and how the pros of both methods can, in theory, be used to
