” group, led by the secondauthor. The group provided a forum for brainstorming ideas and the course provided a platformfor testing these strategies. Four recommendations evolved from this effort: 1.) Education onteam function and bias in team dynamics is helpful. 2.) Teamwork skills and strategies forcollaboration and conflict resolution need to be taught. 3.) Mentoring and engaging withstudents is an important aspect of the process and can be enhanced to better serve women. 4.)Reflection and self-assessment exercises can be integrated to build self-efficacy and confidencein students. Assessment was done using data collected from mid-term evaluations, peerevaluations, self-assessment exercises, input from industry judges, and teaching evaluations
of the importance of engineeringdesign’s integration with society, in our critical review we found it was mostly grand statementsbeing made in the introduction and conclusion, without much real substance in the meat of thepaper. This was most prominent in A4’s paper. The second paragraph mentions the importanceof covering “social issues like the environment” (A4, p.83), and in the conclusion they concludethe students “have shown significant progress in […] developing an appreciation of theengineering involved in creating wealth for society” (A4, p.90). Whereas, during the textualanalysis of the remainder of the paper, there were almost no other codes for society.This is again evident in A1, where the second sentence of the paper states
the rolesthey play within engineering as a discipline, with their peers, and within engineering classrooms[13]. Women must author their individual engineering identities that will relate to the groupidentity of an engineer [13]. Educational experiences within the classroom have the potential tofoster agency through participation in engineering and directly influence a woman’s pursuit ofengineering both at secondary and post-secondary levels [8]. Development of this identity willrequire active participation in engineering curriculum and social integration into engineeringacademic communities [13].Social Cognitive Career Theory Social cognitive career theory (SCCT) was developed originally to connect anindividual’s career development
(Burke & Stets, 2009). Identity theorists advocate that an understanding of PIDprocesses lead to targeted policies and programs that improve students’ persistence into variousprofessions. PID is the process by which students come to think, act, and feel like professionals(Cruess et al., 2015). It is the successful integration of personal attributes and professionaltraining in the context of a professional community. It is an ongoing process of interpretation andre-interpretation of experiences which allow the strengthening and maturing of an individualthrough a series of processes of professional education and experiences (Beijaard, 2004; Kerby,1991; Kogan, 2000). Multiple factors within and outside the educational and

A second objective was to comparehow guidance varied among the disciplines of

scalesrepresenting academic challenge (higher order learning, reflective and integrative learning,learning strategies, and quantitative reasoning) and two scales representing experiences withfaculty (student-faculty interactions and effective teaching practices). The subscales associatedwith the latter set of indicators (experiences with faculty) are similar to faculty support andstudent-faculty interaction scales used in other research efforts. In contrast, the four subscalesassociated with academic challenge reflect what students actually do in their academic endeavorsby measuring time on task associated with the various skills that students use and develop duringtheir college experience [15].Studies which focus on the emotional aspects of engagement are
