The eventual goal at NC State is to build EML into thecurriculum across campus.The entrepreneurial mindset has been much investigated by the KEEN network (KernEntrepreneurial Engineering Network). The network is a partnership of more than 50 collegesand universities investigating how the entrepreneurial mindset can be developed in engineeringgraduates and faculty

forces and moments as vectors. For such a basic concept, there are many subtleaspects and decisions that go into drawing proper FBDs and it can be challenging for new learnersto master this skill. Cornwell and Danesh-Yazdi 1 identified errors and lack of clarity ininstruction on FBDs in physics and statics textbooks. Various instructional aids such asmnemonic devices 2 , and supplementary animations 3,4 have been developed. Ultimately, the onlyway for students to master FBDs is by practice with expert feedback. The difficulty of scaling upindividualized grading or feedback on FBDs to large enrollment courses has led to many effortsover the years to develop automated grading software. Some examples include: Newton’s Pen 5,6 ,which uses a stylus

S-STEM programs award scholarships to academically talentedstudents who demonstrate financial need.

Toremain internationally competitive, the US needs to improve recruitment, retention, and prepara-tion of undergraduate engineering students, focusing particularly on improving the representationof underrepresented minorities [3]. This paper considers a broad range of factors that have beenfound to predict students’ persistence through the first year of undergraduate engineering school, Figure 1: SEVT, as presented in [5]with the goal of identifying potential interventions for improvement. The work is grounded in Situ-ated Expectancy Value Theory (SEVT), which describes and

efforts at the California State University System are also reported.BackgroundIn the past decade, the percentage of doctoral degrees in engineering awarded to women hasincreased from 21.2% to 24.1% (ASEE [1]). Simultaneously, the average percentage of womenfaculty in the engineering professoriate has also increased from 8.1% to 18.8% (ASEE-EDGE[2]). Most of these gains seem to be driven by the hiring of assistant professors (tenure trackpositions) with parallel trends in increasing associate and full professors over a 5-6-year period,indicating that these women are most likely retained. While overall trends in recruiting andretaining more women in engineering in academia are promising, demographic markers such asunderrepresented minority (URM

However, such efforts have focused primarily on mathematics andscience activities [1]; only about 30% of STEM programming focuses on engineering [2]. Moreengineering programming is needed [1]. Because most afterschool educators do not have abackground or coursework in engineering or knowledge of age-appropriate engineeringactivities, high-quality curricular resources can play an important role in supporting theintroduction of engineering activities.OS programs offer possibilities for addressing inequities in STEM education.

recommendations for faculty who are currently developing or planning to developinterdisciplinary computing programs at their institutions.IntroductionInternationally, there is growing demand for computing skills in the workforce that cut acrossmany different sectors [1]. A 2017 report from the Brookings Institute [2] describes the need forindustry, educational institutions, and government to expand the digital knowledge pipeline andto ensure that this pipeline is inclusive and accessible. It is clear that industry needs moreworkers with computing skills than traditional programs can graduate [2]. Moreover, graduatesof computer science programs continue to be predominantly male and White or Asian [2], [3]and the need to diversify the educational pipeline

reuse inengineering education [1], less than a dozen studies funded by EEC have involved data reuse,almost always with quantitative data. The recent meta-synthesis across higher education byPerrier et al. demonstrates the breadth of the problem, highlighting ubiquitous concerns about“data integrity, responsible conduct of research, feasibility of sharing data, and value of sharingdata” [2]. These concerns are compounded by disciplinary and publication practices that valueoriginal data over integrative efforts based on secondary analysis. Additionally, institutionalreward structures are based on accounting of individual accomplishments and thus discouragemore integrated collaboration implied by broad based data sharing.

Technology acceptance has been widely studied and modeled by informationsystems researchers. The most widely used model in educational settings is the TechnologyAcceptance Model (TAM) [1] and its revision, the TAM2 [2].These models are general, however,and not specific to engineering faculty. There is thus a need for qualitative research to determinefacilitating conditions to support engineering faculty’s technology acceptance.This qualitative study involved interviewing engineering faculty at a Midwestern US University.Transcripts were

Introduction.In a world that continuously changes, education must adapt to the challenges posed by thosechanges. One aspect that has been more and more into question in recent times is theeffectiveness of an educational paradigm in which students are presented through Academiawith well-defined and discipline-cut problems, in which has been associated with the traditionof the technical rationality [1]. Therefore, in most cases the academic preparation of scholars oninfrastructure-related disciplines takes place in disjunct professional domains, rarely tacklinginterdisciplinary problem-solving, nor focused on a
