“organize and execute courses of action required to dealwith prospective situations that contain many ambiguous, unpredictable, and often stressful,elements” [8]. The development of self-efficacy relies on four key components [9]:  performance accomplishments: when individuals experience direct success;  vicarious learning: wherein learning results from observing successful peers perform tasks, also known as modeling;  verbal persuasion: led by verbal persuasion that an individual can perform a task; and  emotional arousal: anxiety filled situations can weaken confidence, therefore efforts to reduce anxiety is vital for strong self-efficacy.When all four components are addressed, teachers develop strong self-efficacy

examines the self-reported reflections of121 preservice elementary teachers after participating in an exemplar lesson, then writing andteaching a modified or original engineering design lesson (an “Engineering Mini Unit”) to K-6students as part of their school-based field experience. The first section of this paper highlightsthe research done on the needs of preservice elementary teachers. Next, the paper describes thecontext in which the preservice teachers learned about engineering design through first-handparticipation in engineering design and the teaching of an engineering design lesson. Then thepaper examines the qualitative approach to analyzing the preservice teachers’ responses to fourquestions constructed to help them reflect on their

They boost women’s confidence, help them buildnetworks of peers and mentors to help them navigate difficult situations, and encourage them toassume leadership roles in changing the face of computing and creating transformativetechnologies [5][6]. Although not as well known as GHC, the ACM Richard Tapia Celebrationof Diversity in Computing (often just called “Tapia”) serves similar goals as GHC but for allunderrepresented minorities in computing regardless of gender.1 Tapia highlights the critical

Graduate outreach coordinators held different definitions of their responsibilitiesas an outreach leader. Some viewed the role as strategic and established foundational pieces ofthe program or ways they could extend and grow the program during their leadership tenure. Onthe other end of the spectrum, some graduate coordinators were more executional in theirapproach and focused on the work they would do with undergraduate students and

Though this paper primarily utilizes Godwin andcolleagues’ [8] work to conceptualize our emergent findings, other researchers have createdframeworks to focus on specific populations of students. Capobianco and colleagues et al.

CollectionStudents’ Pre and Post SurveysOn the first day of the engineering camp, the students completed a pre-survey that includeddemographic information and the STEM-CIS (Career Interest Survey) based on the work of Kier,Blanchard, Osborne, & Albert [9]. The STEM-CIS consisted of 44 questions that took the formof a 5-point Likert scale from ‘Strongly Agree’ to ‘Strongly Disagree’. The 44 questions weredivided up into four sets of 11 questions based on the four areas of STEM. An example questionwas “I am interested in careers that involve engineering”.Based on the work of Talton and Simpson [10], four more questions were in the pre-survey in theform of a 5-point Likert scale that looked into peer perceptions of science. An example questionwas, “My best
