Womenalso reported higher quality mentoring than men across all the schools.Expansion of MentoringThe Provost has placed faculty mentoring as a high priority at Rice University. As such, thedepartment chairs and deans are developing a plan concordant with their faculty and perceivedneeds to meet this clear mandate for mentoring — and this priority is being reinforced both fromthe highest levels of the institution and from the faculty. In response to the Provost’s request formentoring, the ADVANCE Program developed a Department Grants Program in summer 2009.ADVANCE and the University leveraged resources to fund six grants totaling $23,400.Although the

Thus the structure of the project itself can be described and presented in away that carries cultural meaning for Navajo students.Further, design projects can be structured to blend culture and course material. In engineeringoutreach camps in the Navajo Nation, students were asked to write a story related to their culture(e.g., “Describe a day in the life of a Navajo middle school student”). Students then, learn theengineering design process and build a Rube Goldberg®-style chain reaction machine that tellsthe story they wrote. This not only helps the students

Female faculty need to be encouraged to improve their leadership skills byattending training, workshops, conferences, etc.Conclusions and Future WorkAutoethnographic narratives of three female faculty in engineering who have experienced genderbias have enabled this topic to be explored. The findings from this research are consistent with thelarge body of literature on gender bias in academia.

It got me thinking aboutmy own narrative of how I came to be an engineer, and how tortured I felt to deliver a quick,understandable explanation for why I belonged in engineering. I remember trimming parts of thestory that did not go well in my conversations with others, eliminating the parts that didn’t fitwell, were confusing, or left doubts about my qualifications. I was curious to what extent I mightrecognize these efforts in the narratives of other women.I was also surprised when my opening question did not work as planned, when participants didnot seem to understand it as an

Projectswere structured to last approximately 90 minutes, so if some students took a little longer they didnot run out of time to complete their projects. If a student finished early, they were given theoption of leaving early each week, or completing a second version of the project from that weekor one of the earlier weeks if they had a hands-on item they wanted to create again.Projects (and related tools included): wooden coasters (measuring, Dremel tools), string art(pattern planning, pliers, hammers, nails), wooden swiss-cheese (power drill, drill bits, vise),ratcheting wrench mini

number of participants per grade, per ethnicity and in theall-girls after-school STEM program limits generalizations from our data.Although initially planned, a major limitation of the study was that a pre-survey was notconducted limiting the ability to “compare” the influence of the all-girls after-school program.Additionally, the absence of open-ended questions or follow-up interviews with either all-schoolstudents or teachers, limits our insight into student reasoning. For example, do the students knowwhat “engineering” is when asked if girls belong? Interest scores in science were lower than inother areas. The principal indicated hiring good science instructors was a constant struggle andthat the department would be revamped the following

The first major issue is that of actual versus perceivedability in STEM. Although mathematical abilities are now roughly equal for male and femalestudents

know?’ Even though we have accreditation and we have … some discussions about what constitutes a good engineer, 12 it’s very skill-focused. And we haven’t really asked some of the questions that we should be asking. What do engineers need to know now? What do we need to know in order to plan the future? And to recognize that the choices that we are making have an impact on what kinds of technology are going to be available in twenty years.These are radical ideas in engineering education. While it is not typical to challenge the canon,perhaps by injecting new ways of thinking about modes of teaching/learning, creative responseswill arise to meet contemporary
