Pedagogy AbstractThe purpose of this work-in-progress (WIP) paper is to report on an ongoing study that used Chiand Wylie (2014)’s Interactive, Constructive, Active, and Passive (ICAP) framework (I > C > A> P) to survey the degree to which LC-DLMs foster cognitive engagement as students learn abouta venturi meter in a fluid mechanics and heat transfer course. Fredricks, Blumenfeld, and Paris(2004) define cognitive engagement as the effort students invest in understanding what they arelearning. Indeed, cognitive engagement is critical for effective teaching and learning inengineering. Although there is research evidence showing that students learn better with hands-onapproaches than traditional

Recruitment, Mentoring and Retention through the Aerospace and Industrial Engineering (ASPIRE) Scholarship Program1. IntroductionThe overarching goal of the Aerospace and Industrial Engineering (ASPIRE) Scholarshipprogram is to improve recruitment and retention of aerospace engineering (AE) and industrial(IE) engineering students. With support from the NSF S-STEM program, the ASPIRE programprovides scholarships to academically talented, full-time AE and IE students with demonstratedfinancial need. The ASPIRE program enhances the educational experience of ASPIRE studentsthrough mentoring and networking events. The objectives of the ASPIRE program are to: • Prepare students for the workforce. • Provide educational
engagement of industry mentors with the students has increased the number ofinternships with the region. The interaction of students in competitions motivates the students totake on more challenging projects in STEM areas than they would engage in with traditionalcourses. Finally, having students carry out lessons and activities builds self-confidence andspeaking skills.References1.

STEM transfer students exist. Programs such as summer bridge programs, mentoring,tutoring, learning communities, and other activities are fairly common at the undergraduate levelin STEM fields, and many of these programs have historically been funded by NSF STEP and S-STEM programs. Few systematic studies of interventions have been conducted, however. Localassessment data, typically published in conference papers and reports, support the efficacy of theseinterventions; however, no systematic reviews of the considerable literature have been found. Tosignificantly and positively impact representation of Hispanic scientists and engineers, we need acomprehensive synthesis to (a) develop patterns of successes and failures of Hispanic STEMtransfer

More recent studies indicate that persons with disabilities may move through aprocess of seven types of identities: isolated affirmation, apathy, resignation, situationalidentification, affirmation, crusadership, and normalization [2]. Studies also indicate that the arts,including the visual arts, can be a tool to aid transition through these identities to enhance

four students each were instructed to brainstorm several business opportunitiesrelevant to the biomechanics field. The proposed ideas could provide either a product or service.Teams were to identify potential customers for their ideas. Students then assessed the merits andpotential impact (to the customer(s) and society at large) of their initial ideas. Over the course ofseveral weeks, the teams continued to refine their concepts by performing market analysis toconsider resources needed (costs, personnel, facilities, manufacturing, distribution, etc.),intellectual property protections, and an understanding of their competition. This iterativeprocess continued for a couple weeks offline until the teams selected their preferred businessidea.At
throughout the academic cycle. “...students frequently question their identity, relationships, direction and worth during transition to school which produces turmoil and crisis. Stress of relocation, separation from family and friends, new people, academic challenges, discrepancy between expectations and reality, loneliness, and lack of support all significantly relate to attrition” (Lee, D., Olson, E. A., Locke, B. Michelson S. T. & Odes E, 2009, p. 5).Students past the initial transition face stressors related to making progress in research orprojects, successfully completing academic milestones, and job hunting. Even the most resilientstudents can be negatively impacted by these stressors. In the worst case

Specifically, the multidisciplinary teamwork, multiple teamleaders, and presenting engineering topics to middle and high school students. These exercisescontribute to the development of highly effective engineers who know the technical backgroundand are groomed in professional practices.AcknowledgementThe support provided by National Science Foundation under grant number 1439738 is greatlyappreciated.
