In addition, for learning to take place and successful transfer to occur, students needto recognize what they don’t yet know [2].With an eye toward asking students to develop an engineering

Following isa short excerpt: I was able to apply both of these skills (creativity and research) in conjunction during my internship where I had to design a test fixture…. During this time, I realized that innovation is not a linear process. The steps to pursuing a design is iterative, and creativity can be utilized simultaneously with research. I also learned that there will always be stages of failure. Learning how to overcome these challenges, thus gaining support from real engineers in the field helped build both my creative

Overall, these sub-cases reveal howcommitments to pre-college constructionist-oriented engineering education can result in “doublebinds” [9] where constructionism is simultaneously positioned as an advantage for students’learning and long term development but also a disadvantage to participating in larger educationalstructures in- and out of Julie’s school.Sub-case 1 - Pi Day In 2015, Pi Day (March 14th; 3/14) fell on a Saturday

In this course, students experiencedmultiple levels of uncertainty and instructors offered permission as part of the course design tosafely take risks, fail, and move forward. As a result, final products were much more innovativeand creative in nature than ideas presented at the beginning of the class. Students recognized theimportance of the challenges they faced (group dynamics, work dynamics, distaste for the coursedesign and overwhelming amount of group work, etc.) in moving through the creative designprocess.With that in mind, we look to student reflections, specifically those of the engineering students,to identify strategies that contribute to creative practice and to help students

With this contingency in mind, the measurement of self-efficacy can betied to a much larger social project. Most suggestively, Jaffee and Riley draw our attention tothe fact that it is in leaving engineering that some women express agency. We certainly need notaccept as final or desirable the departure of these young women from STEM fields, but if we areto understand the complex relationship between identity, self-efficacy, and equitableopportunities in STEM disciplines, such broadened definitions of what counts as self-confidenceand self-determination will be vital.

of essential notions of intellect, drive, and self-discipline thatcenter on bodily ‘normalcy’” [8]. Notions of engineering skill have assumptions about “capable”bodies and minds built into them [12]. For example, to be seen as proficient at circuit design andtesting in an electrical engineering lab, one is expected to have the manual dexterity tomanipulate centimeter-long resistors and capacitors and the visual acuity to see small details upclose. A students’ demonstration that they understand the workings of a circuit is often conflatedwith the physical act of circuit-making in the laboratory. In such instances, lack of physicaldexterity or visual sharpness may be interpreted as lack of proficiency at engineering tasks.Because of the
