New Engineering Educators

2003, Hispanic Americans and AfricanAmericans comprised 6.2% and 7.9% respectively of those graduating with an undergraduateengineering degree from U.S. colleges7, while the general population of the U.S. is comprised ofapproximately 14% Hispanic Americans and 12% African Americans8. Moreover, Chubin et al9also reported that fewer than two in five (40%) minority first-year students who enterengineering graduate with an engineering degree. Clearly, diversity issues having to do withopportunities for underrepresented minority students are a major concern.However, racial/ethnic diversity was not chosen as a focus for this study simply in response tothe national concern. Focusing on African American and Hispanic American students isimportant and

from a UK professor ii) ENGAGE: Everyday Examples in Engineering​ - NSF funded resourceMotivation is necessary but not sufficient for ​engagement ​[3]. Engagement, or a student’sactive involvement in a task or activity, is important because (among other things) it is linked toretention and graduation rates [4]. Luckily for us, of the 11 engagement indicators used by theNSSE study [4], many of them can be addressed but supporting the 3 antecedents of motivationabove. Others, including effective teaching practices (e.g. clearly explaining ​learning objectives​,using examples to explain difficult points) are addressed in other guides in this series.Cited References[1] R.

workshop design, we chose to restrict our data to that generated by normalworkshop activities.A brief description of what "normal workshop activities" consisted of is helpful at this point. Theworkshop we studied was the week-long "Designing for Student Engagement" summer instituteoffered by the Collaboratory (formerly the Institute for Innovation in Engineering Education, orI2E2) at Olin College, a small, all-engineering undergraduate teaching college based in Page 24.1366.3Needham, MA. The workshop is developed and facilitated by Olin faculty and has been runningunder its current design since June 2011. It was based in a large open space set up
