Prior research has shown that these internship opportunities can increase students’sense of self-efficacy in STEM fields, give students insight into career paths they might nototherwise be exposed to, and increase students’ interest in and pursuit of STEM-related majorsand careers.The home environment can also provide opportunity for students to increase and strengthenSTEM identity and the consideration of STEM careers. A model for STEM identity has beendeveloped as a framework building on disciplinary studies and includes the interplay of threeelements

A challenge associated with NGSS and ASEE implementation is the meaningful integrationof science and engineering knowledge and skills in precollege teaching and learning. Researchhas identified issues that science teachers encounter with integrated STEM instruction, includinglack of relevant content knowledge, lack of administrative support, and weak self-efficacy inengineering pedagogy [4,10,11].

[17], women in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) prioritizework prestige in their career choices, regardless of whether they work for a public or privatecompany. This preference for work prestige may challenge women who value balancing theirprofessional and personal goals, as it could limit their career opportunities [17]. Researchers have identified several factors and challenges that affect women's entry,persistence, or departure from STEM fields. For instance, one study found that these factorsincluded the relationship between self-efficacy and competence, religious and personal

While this doesrecognize a cognitive element of student success (i.e., how a student thinks about their majorimpacts their decision to remain in it), it does not fully support SOB. Although they are aminority, there interventions at the college level for engineering majors that specifically addressSOB [18] or self-efficacy [14].

The highest priority was advancing math knowledge; it was important as well © American Society for Engineering Education, 2023to increase students’ self-efficacy in math, as studies have shown that when students’ self-effi-cacy increases, their performance increases [10]. Moreover, the program was developed to pro-vide incoming freshmen with a way to engage, to get involved, and to gain a sense of belonging,as evidence suggests a strong correlation between these

efforts these centers ofhigher education had made to specifically support engineering students in their math courses. Aresource as specific as an engineering math resource center was not found in any otheruniversity, although other resources, including broad curriculum changes (such as thoseimplemented at Wright State University [2]), university-wide math tutoring centers, and summerprograms were explored. Therefore, rather than following a previously implemented model for amath resource center, the creation of the EMRC at USU focused on underlying conceptuallearning principles. These principles included the importance of self-efficacy, storytelling as amethod for student engagement, and presenting math principles in a suitable context.Based on

The goal was to determine the most effective way toimplement ML in ENES100. The team decided that the integration of hands-on, interactivemachine learning projects would be the most beneficial approach.

In content-heavybiomedical engineering courses, high-stakes assessments such as tests or exams often elicitanxiety, low expectancy to succeed, and low self-efficacy for students, corresponding todecreased motivation. Collaborative testing has been demonstrated to improve students’performance [8]–[10], leading to the hypothesis that collaborative testing also improves students’perceptions of their learning environment based on development of effective learning strategies.Collaborative testing has been reported to improve retention and recall (e.g., [7]–[10

” methods [11,15]. Active frameworks have many benefits suchas: student preference [16], self-efficacy [17], and student engagement [18]; all of which contribute to theclassroom climate. Perhaps the most popular method for active learning in recent engineering educationliterature is the inverted or flipped classroom where lectures are moved outside the class time [12-13]. Ameta-analysis by Lo and Hew [19] involving 29 engineering education studies concluded that flippedclassrooms promote student achievement with evidence suggesting that self-paced learning before classand increased problem-solving during class were the predominant reasons [20].

For theseactivities, sometimes people engage to learn a task, while in others, engagement is driven by afixed-mindset: their mind was set on independent task completion. For example, one studentreflected on how he approaches working on his car in high school in this manner, saying, “I'd belike, all right, I'm going to try and identify the problem. I'm going to try and look at a video, seehow to do it.” Here we see that the activity was focused, goal-oriented, and driven by one’s self.A noted difference between unstructured-specific and structured-specific, is in the type ofactivities; with unstructured activities, the

There exists a need to examine a broader arrayof student outcomes.Instead of focusing only on academic outcomes to evaluate the effectiveness of summer bridgeprograms, we propose to consider an examination based on the transformative nature of theprograms in order to provide a holistic view of the effectiveness of the programs.

are) but they are worth fewer points each andstudents can easily attain the points by completion of assignments and by exploring other opportunitiesfor learning (Solid Professor/LinkedIn Learning). This can be perceived as a gamification of theclassroom through use of a points system where students start at zero and “earn” points by completion ofassignments rather than “lose points” through larger stakes grading. These assessment strategies supportStudent Centered Learning which leads students to be more autonomous. Students tend to perform betterwhen they feel more in control of their learning. Student-centered learning also increases studentmotivation and self-efficacy[8].Mid-Semester EvaluationWhile end-of-semester evaluations allow
