mathematics and science in California and Oklahoma. American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 A Framework for Examining Engineering Doctoral Student Role IdentityAbstract This paper presents the Role Identities of Doctoral Engineering Doctoral Students(RIDES) framework for the examination of engineering doctoral students’ role identities.Identity of engineering students at the undergraduate level has been widely explored, butcomparably few studies have explored identity at the doctoral level [1]. Identity development isfundamental to becoming part of the community of practice of graduate school and academia(e.g., [2]); thus

target themsystematically within programs. Therefore, it remains to the graduate students to createknowledge to support each other during their journeys through graduate education. Thus, thisstudy takes the approach of researcher to participant, to uncover our own experiences as ESLgraduate students. The experiences we have during our doctoral training influence the development of anidentity as researchers and as potential future scholars that will facilitate the education of the newgenerations or will perform successfully in non-academic contexts. The construction of suchidentities would influence our persistence in our graduate programs. A recent study aboutengineering doctoral students used Identity-Based Motivation theory to explore

Visualizing Arguments to Scaffold Graduate Writing in Engineering EducationAbstractMany graduate students come to engineering education research with technical backgrounds inengineering. This can present a challenge for them in learning to write social science research,with new expectations around the structure of academic arguments for the field of engineeringeducation research. Existing research suggests that even graduate students familiar with writingstrategies struggle when entering new communities of practice and disciplines. Although somescholarship has focused on writing, minimal strategies for encouraging argumentation through arhetorical approach have been developed for graduate students. Unlike a focus on writtenproduct

(2015) sought to address the lack of graduate level-writing support of engineeringstudents at their institution, New Mexico Tech, a university who has strong specialized programsin areas such as mechanical engineering, atmospheric and astrophysics, earth sciences, andpetroleum engineering.

Her research interests include topics related to student persistence, STEM doctoral student experiences, faculty mentorship and development, modeling and analysis of complex manufacturing systems, and the development of new discrete event simulation methodologies. Bekki is the co-director of the interdisciplinary, National Science Foundation supported CareerWISE research program, which strives to: 1) understand the experiences of diverse women who are pursuing and leaving doctoral programs in science and engineering and 2) increase women’s persistence in science and engineering doctoral programs through the development and
