Page 26.370.3Introduction Instructors who work in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) areasare aware that their students, particularly upper-division undergraduate students, often resistwriting. This happens despite various large-scale studies that emphasize the importance of writingto careers in STEM-related industries1-3. One cause of this

Autoethnographic techniques are used to construct three accounts ofthe student’s encounters with an upper level administrator, various members of faculty, and anacademic advisor. Critical analysis of these experiences using a prior evidence-based model ofstories ‘told’ about engineering in the public discourse reveals tensions between the freshmanstudent’s values and career interests and the emergent, dominant discourse he observed in hisundergraduate program. These tensions are described in terms of: i) The prioritization of nationaleconomic recovery and growth over the life and career goals of individuals; ii) A predominantfocus on the quantitative and technical aspects of

major with a high level of one-on-one advising. However, a high degree of flexibility also contributes. In the LSE program,iterative revision and recreation of an individualized curriculum and career plan are understoodas signs of success rather than failure or deviation. Students are encouraged to understand anddesign their major as a “whole-person technical degree” that does not require them to pass, toassimilate, to compartmentalize, or to conform to stereotypes. We suggest that this holisticflexibility may disrupt barriers such as impostor syndrome by positioning the student not asimpostor but as designer and creator – even when enrolled in technical courses in which thesex/gender ratio is skewed male.

For this project, students completed a pre-survey about their to-date presentationexperiences and overall public-speaking confidence followed by an interactive workshop on thetheatre-based exercises mentioned above. They then completed a post-workshop survey on thesesame concepts before giving their first presentation of the semester in a technical-communicationcourse. Significantly, the workshop was conducted by a theatre professor (one of the currentpaper’s authors) who began his career with an electrical-engineering degree and several years ofexperience in industry.

Needless to say, students struggle withtrying to meet standards they have yet to be taught or had the opportunity to practice. The writingguide is meant to help alleviate this problem by offering consistent guidance for studentsbeginning at the freshman year and continuing throughout the degree program.Simply providing the students with the writing guide, however, will most likely not be enough todrastically improve their communication skills. Faculty must also demonstrate to students theimportance of developing these skills as they relate to a successful career in engineering.6 Socalled “soft skills” such as communication, teamwork, information seeking and

Engineeringas a profession benefits from the meritocracy ideology in that it is well respected and itspractitioners are typically well-compensated when compared to the average U.S. worker. Riley,in Engineering and Social Justice [1], describes how many engineers work within a systemwithout consideration of the potential for changing or even questioning the social constructs ofthat system, even when social changes offer the potential for a better outcome.

This could point to a missing link withrespect to developing a professional sense of social responsibility in engineers that could drawfrom the existing HSS influences that students reported. One student actually discussed howtheir humanities class influenced them negatively with respect to their views of engineering,saying: “Mostly the humanities, the engineering classes I took made me realize how irrelevant my major (mechanical engineering) is to making a difference in the world. I don't plan on using my major for anything in the future- planning on shifting my career path to the humanities/social sciences.”This response came from a female, senior engineering student who

Faculty will discovernew pedagogical tools because they will actively search out other instructors and tools that willaid them.

engineering,complicating any analysis of diversification efforts. In the case of economic competitiveness, thegoal is simply production of the maximum number of STEM graduates. The strategy is puttingmore bodies into the beginning of the STEM education pipeline so more come out the other end.In the case of educational pluralism, the goal is more about economic (and career) opportunity“for all,” and inclusiveness and diversity as desirable social and educational foundations in theirown right. These two diversification logics often fold together in practice—and are oftenconflated by STEM education reform advocates—confusing the conceptual foundations formany STEM inclusiveness initiatives. Therefore, while policy support for broad-based STEMrecruitment
