When looking to combine a strengths-based language with individualreflection, a conversation-based strengths-based intervention showed students had high regardsfor their strengths and had higher levels of optimism and self-efficacy throughout the course[27]. Collectively, these programs emphasize the role of strengths-based languages in fostering athriving atmosphere for undergraduate students.Research into CliftonStrengths is also increasing in popularity. Specifically, researchers approveof using a cohesive assessment tool to provide students with a consistent language to discusstheir strengths and other traits.

For example, the student's response, “My approach was successful,”should be followed up with evidence stating why/why not.Instructors should also guide students to improve their level of engagement in specific elementsof each dimension.

To address this gap, the University ofTexas, Arlington assembled an ad-hoc taskforce from various universities to develop a nationalstandard of maker-based competencies to enhance student learning outcomes to impactundergraduate students [17]. Among the taskforce was the University of Nevada, Reno. In 2017and 2019, the group received two National Leadership grants from the Institute of Museum andLibrary Services (IMLS).To form their framework, the grant team used the competencies-based education model, whichincludes the assessment of learning outcomes and learning that is personalized, measurable, andtransferable [16].

Further, failure is deemedan essential building block for developing skills such as resiliency [3], persistence [4], creativity[5], and problem solving [6], as well as other noncognitive skills such as self-efficacy andindependence [7-8]. Specific to engineering, failure is viewed as a normative practice ofengineers, and a practice that should be experienced by young children within engineering designprojects [9-10]. As stated by Petroski [11], “One of the paradoxes of engineering is thatsuccesses don't teach you very much. A successful bridge teaches you that that bridge works.”Therefore, experiences with failure in engineering are touted for their ability to teach us

Despite this,representation of women in hackathons is still very low [5], resulting in this group missing outon professional development and employment opportunities [6].

correlated with a higher likelihood of remaining in a STEM program. Riconscentediscusses how students with a robust STEM identity tend to have a clearer sense of purpose,motivation, and self-efficacy within their chosen field, making them more likely to persist(2013). Additionally, studies emphasize the importance of fostering a positive STEM identity,especially among underrepresented minority students, as it can counteract stereotypes and booststudents' resilience in the face of challenges (Cheryan et al. 2017).Belongingness is another critical aspect. Research finds that students who feel like they belong intheir STEM community are more likely to remain engaged and persist in their programs (Good etal. 2012). Similarly, Walton and Cohen (2007

Both formal peer mentoring and informal peer relationships between Scholars (andother STEM students) were key components to their developing STEM identities.

A notable uptick in graduation rates at CU occurred between 2009 and 2015,with six-year degree completions reaching 62.2%, yet recent years have witnessed plateaus inretention rates. Persistent disparities befall minoritized students [1], [2]. These stagnantcompletion rates occur in the face of substantial need for increased engineering talent, bothnationally and globally, to support fields including technology, security, transportation, andinfrastructure.The causes of student attrition from engineering are multifaceted and vary across demographics.A range of known issues includes an unwelcoming climate, conceptual difficulties in corecourses that hamper progress toward degree, lack of self
