Furthermore, the creative climatedimensions that were explicitly mentioned across interviews provide insight into the dimensionswith a strong influence over the creative climate in graduate-level engineering education.6.1. Creative Personal IdentitiesEach participant was asked to define creativity in their own words. These definitions were uniqueto each participant with little overlap among the responses, which ranged from generating ideas,exploring different perspectives and connections with an open mind, and expressing themselveswhile bringing their own visions to life. Participants were also asked to define what it means tobe an engineer. Unlike the creativity definitions, these responses were

There arestrong reasons to suggest that these affective ways of operating are crucial for harnessingengineering students’ cognitive skills [16]. Educators who use WIL should consider linkingexplicitly the cognitive and affective domains for greater student engagement and learning inWIL and for subsequent work readiness/employment [16]. With these ideas in mind, we nowturn to our own exploratory investigation of student experience of design in a

However, this candrive the value they place on attaining an engineering career: “Students who pay their owncollege expenses may then be interested in having a future in engineering because they have ajob to pay their own way to attain their degree…” [3]. While these students may be moreopen-minded in the classroom, first-generation students require a higher sense of belonging tosucceed in college [3], potentially because they have no prior experience with or knowledge ofcollege. Stebleton et al. [18] also found a relationship between sense of belonging and levels ofdepression and stress for first-generation college students, reporting lower ratings ofbelongingness and

Students wanted support fromprofessors, both academic and emotional. Academically, students stated that they wanted lesswork and that professors needed to keep in mind that they are often in several engineeringcourses at the same time and have responsibilities outside of school. Also, students wanted moreclarity on assignments, as well as opportunities for extensions. Emotionally, students wantedinstructors to be more supportive inside the classroom, desiring “constructive feedback instead ofharsh criticism.” They also wanted to develop a more

Because of the technical focus of many engineering courses, weexpected some students to seek out skills and knowledge beyond what courses emphasized,while other students would have a strong sense of alignment with their engineering curriculum.3.2 Research questionsThe aim of this study was to understand what curricular messaging engineering students receivedabout engineering practice within
