Previous studies on mentoring faculty have largely focused on medical fields (Levinsonet al., 1991; Palepu et al., 1998; Reid et al., 2012). Our study extends the literature by focusingon faculty working across a wider range of fields, including engineering, science, health, andsocial sciences, as well as across different academic institutions, by analyzing nationallyrepresentative data from the National Science Foundation Early Career Doctorates Survey(ECDS). Research findings demonstrate whether the likelihood of having a formal/informalmentor differs across faculty subgroups, and identify

Our study explores successfactors in peer mentoring of students from underrepresented groups in STEM.We developed a mentoring program between Hispanic graduate and Hispanic undergraduatestudents to identify aspects of peer mentoring that may increase Hispanic representation inadvanced STEM degree programs.

undergraduate teaching assistantships in the flipped classroom, anenvironment in which TAs take on a more important role than in a traditional classroom. Flippedlearning builds upon active learning, a constructivist approach to learning that emphasizeslearning by doing [18-20]. Active learning is based on the principles that students are activelyresponsible for their own learning within a collaborative process with peers and tutors [21].Flipped learning takes this further by moving the passive and individual-focused parts of STEMlearning – the first introduction to the material – out of the classroom entirely. This frees classtime to be devoted to interactive activities, such as problem-based learning, that reinforce coursematerial without sacrificing

Research has shown that implementing DLI inother subjects, such as history, has led to students showing greater mastery of historical thinking,increased ability to transfer historical knowledge to other contexts, and improved readingcomprehension compared to peers that did not receive DLI [5], cf.

Similar studies havebeen conducted in science [8].Research on disciplinary literacy suggests that use of DLI in engineering may increase students’abilities to engage in engineering thinking as well as lessen literacy-based barriers that preventwomen and underrepresented students from pursuing STEM pathways.

Afinal limitation is the passive nature of the learning process in this approach. Students engagewith these cases by writing analyses or taking tests, rather than by actively grappling with theethical dilemmas presented. This passive engagement reduces opportunities for personalreflection and the development of critical thinking skills required in the students’ future careers.In recognition of the limitations described above, educators have recommended several strategiesfor increasing student engagement in engineering ethics: Some recommend electronic bulletinboards and chat rooms, which encourage students to
