Sample questions include: • Which of the following description(s) best describes the relationships among the partners. After choosing the best description(s), please provide an example that demonstrates the relationship you chose. For example, if one chose option B, and example for why one chose this option might be: Institution A has the ability to reach more minority students, while Institution B has the ability to connect students with real- world internships

Through the programming, the CIRC students were exposed totopics not normally found in the classroom such as portfolios, writing a good resume, and talksby practicing engineers on what it is “really like in industry”. The program has been determinedto be very successful and is being continued with an NSF S-STEM grant.II. Program HistoryThis first group was composed of 12 transfer students, 9 women, 5 minority students, and 2freshman minority students who were unable to attend Arizona State University withoutscholarship assistance. All of the students had at least a 3.0 GPA and all were in need offinancial assistance as determined by their FAFSA

adult is naive and uninformed, if he's never learned to be a mapmaker. (p.10)The intent of the CareerQuesting model is that boys and girls will be taught to be “mapmakers”as part of the regular curriculum. A quest usually refers to a long journey of discovery andlearning, with a person seeking an important goal or treasure at the end. Students need a map forthis inevitable “career” quest each must embark upon. They need to know how to make such amap, and how to use the map. The goal of evaluating websites is to provide teachers with betteraccess to some of the best tools and resources to help create a generation of mapmakers that willbe comprised of both boys and girls.References1.

In order to better understand the role(s) of such a course in an engineering student'seducation and how engineering education considers these issues, the instructor team invited twoundergraduate researchers to undertake projects in support of these goals. One of these students(Amber Levine) was tasked with identifying other courses across the U.S. with similar subjectmatter and learning objectives (“EEL Related Courses Study”); she found 13 courses acrosstwelve institutions that connected issues of diversity and culture to engineering and were targetedto engineering students (Levine, 2016).
