students noted the importance of collaboration, connecting collaboration to a successfullearning environment and for their future as an engineer. Some student quotes in this areaincluded "I think that the concepts we were taught in the growth mindset are good for making mea better person and teammate, which is important in the collaborative environment ofengineering.” and "At a macro level, I understand now the power of teams, collaboration, andfeedback in creating a successful learning environment."Overall, these reflection results illustrate that having assignments related to teamwork keeps theteamwork topic on students’ minds as they progress through their coursework.

[8] [see appendix A for the program translated into C++].Who Was Ada Lovelace?Ada Lovelace, daughter of the famed poet Lord Byron and known as Ada Byron, first metCharles Babbage at a party in 1833 when she was 17 and he was 41. Lovelace was fascinatedwith Babbage’s Difference Engine. With her analytical mind she could understand how itworked as few people could since she had been extensively tutored in mathematics throughouther childhood. Her mother had decided that a solid grounding in mathematics would ward offthe wild and romantic flair that possessed Lovelace’s estranged father. After meeting in 1833,Lovelace and Babbage remained a part of the same social circle and wrote to each otherfrequently [9].Ada Byron married William King in

Nowadays, computational thinking has been widely recognized as a fundamentalskill to be used by everyone in the world by the middle of the 21st Century. Computationalthinking is also considered crucial for developing engineering habits of minds and solvingengineering problems [2]. When students work on coding, they can learn how to design acomputer program while developing their computational thinking skills [3]. Computationalthinking (CT) includes the thought processes involved in formulating problems, solvingproblems, building systems, and human behavior through the lens of computer science concepts[4]. However, little is known about how and to what extent children acquire

A stand-alone History of Engineering course, similar towhat has been instituted at other institutions [4,7], was not something that was viable for thegoals and vision of the WFU Engineering curriculum.With this in mind, we began to incorporate a deeper intersection of history and engineeringwithin the “What is Engineering?” module, with an emphasis on global and societal contexts.While students completed their professional development tasks, we developed and included alecture series called “Engineering before Engineers” to encourage students to consider how thehistorical context of engineering may help them better understand current engineering practice.The development of this series is described

Therefore, with this positivecorrelation in mind and the fact that HSIs educate about a third of Latinx engineering graduatesin the United States, careful examination of HSI faculty’s ability to foster motivation couldprovide valuable insights to help increase the representation of diverse populations in the futureSTEM workforce [13], [14], [15].HSIs are two- and four-year higher-education institutions enrolling 25% or more Latinx students[15
