Creamer [17] found that relationships formed with peers and thedegree of respect and support received during engineering-based group activities plays animportant role in shaping engineering goals for female students. Furthermore, they foundthat these types of interactions, peer-to-peer and student-to-faculty, tends to have both ashort- and long-term impact on interest in engineering as a major and a career.While the literature on women in engineering education is rather extensive, thescholarship on the experiences of female engineering students in makerspace-basedprogramming, particularly on participation in engineering design activities, is practicallynon-existent. To address this gap in the research, we developed and implemented animmersive

Dr. Giancola’s current work focuses on developing methodological processes to embed evaluation into human services programs, such that program development can be driven by reliable and valid information and impact findings can be properly interpreted. Much of her work employs theory-based methods, not to replace rigorous research designs, but rather to supplement, in order to better understand implementation and effectiveness. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 ADVANCE Women’s Leadership at the University of Delaware

Teachers were urged to discuss ideas with their mentors and with the PI and graduate students. Teachers were encouraged to make choices, i.e. to complete a mini-project that was not completely “canned,” but rather refined in collaboration with the mentors and with each other as a team. The mini project was designed to transition teachers to practice what they learned in training in Weeks 1-2 and was not the same problem as their research project. Each team of teachers (from the

As opposed to being concise, to the point, or having the data speak for themselves, scholarly writing relies on analysis, synthesis, and logical construction of a proposition with appropriate support. Technical writing is generally designed primarily to transmit specific information, while scholarly writing is designed to underpin the creation of new knowledge.Thus, the way in which technical communication programs approach teaching writing—along with debates on whether or not technical writing
