study the issue of the gender gap and the factorsaffecting it [11].Solving the gender gap is of interest to scientific education [12]. Despite the implementation ofmany policies to reduce the gender gap, the difference in the rate of women and men in the fieldof engineering, especially in Middle Eastern countries, remains significant. These differences canalso have negative effects on scientific and technological progress [12]. The “credentialsequilibrium” described by Salehi-Isfahani [13] refers to a system in which educationalqualifications in the Middle East were primarily aimed at securing public sector jobs rather thanfostering broader economic productivity. This factor has led to high youth unemployment andinefficient use of educational

The new ABET Student Outcomes 1-7 renderengineering programs unable to decouple technical skills from what are commonly (and oftendisdainfully) referred to as “soft skills.” Our program, and specifically the course discussed inthis study, embrace the integration of the liberal arts into engineering and purposefully frametechnical engineering content by its broader social context, as well as take a humanisticapproach to engineering by orienting the core of our program around social justice [1, 2].Much of the literature tying engineering

address concerns about academic preparationand connecting students to faculty, on-campus resources, and other students.IntroductionA key to maximizing America’s future success is broader access to higher education. One of tenrecommendations from the National Research Council is to “secure for the United States the fullbenefits of education for all Americans, including women and underrepresented minorities, inscience, mathematics, engineering, and technology” [1]. This goal is a central tenet of theUniversity of California (UC) system, which was recently recognized by The New York Timesas an “upward-mobility machine” [2].

We also asked whetherinstructors are selecting materials based on accessibility, diversity of format types, representationof a variety of identities within STEM professions, or other criteria. We asked what informationresources are consulted when instructors select instructional materials. Using qualitative codinganalysis of free text responses, we identified several themes in the data that will help librariansand publishers to find, curate, and advertise more useful materials for STEM course

As a result, students’conceptual understanding was enhanced, and their exam grades were improved accordingly.Using smart devices in the class could be distracting, but can be alleviated by asking students touse the smart devices only during the poll question time, and put the smart devices away afterfinishing the poll responses. Overall it is beneficial to integrate the system into engineering classes to enhance classinteraction and participation. However, good implementation can be time consuming, as studentsand instructors need time to adjust to the new technology, there are the technological glitcheswith the system and network access, the login system may be inconvenient, and questions needto be designed cautiously to prevent

Engineering Schoolindicated that there was an overall increase in students' interest in STEM content and STEMfields as a career, and that students found hands-on sessions fun and engaging [10]. Compared to boys, attitudes towards STEM subjects for middle-school girls arebecoming more negative between the seventh and ninth grades and are declining at a faster pace[11]. The current gender gap in girls' attitudes and interests most likely affects their performancein the STEM study and their lifestyle choices associated with important life phases [12]. In termsof career participation, women are less interested in STEM subjects and occupations than men[13]. Post a 2017 five-day all girls STEM camp at West Virginia Institute of Technology, 81%(26/32
