aligns with the targeted age range, 11-18, i.e., middle and high school age, of our broadening education intervention. It is highly likely that these students either play or played Minecraft games. They may either be interested in Minecraft or have fond memories of it. Their positive experience with Minecraft could serve as a foundation for developing an interest in computer programming. 2) Minecraft allows us to create a virtual world that reflects reality: the identity of the players and the socio-cultural context. We want these students' identities to be represented to encourage engagement, particularly from underrepresented students. Minecraft allows us to create characters of different races, genders

The auto-ethnographic framework also allows for analysis of thevaried interactions between factors that have influenced her interest in engineering. Additionally,a qualitative technique with an auto-ethnographic framework allows the researcher to lookdeeply into the participant's experiences, motives, and reflections. Auto-ethnography is a suitableapproach to self-reflect, bringing valuable personal views into her experience.

). Comprehending and acknowledging the subtletiesof student effort is essential for educators, researchers, and institutions seeking to elevate theoverall quality of the educational experience. At its core, student effort involves the commitment and diligence demonstrated bystudents in their academic endeavors (Shu, 2022). This commitment manifests in various forms,including time spent on studying, engagement in coursework, active participation in classdiscussions, and the pursuit of additional learning opportunities (Khachikian et al., 2011; Shu,2022). The quantitative dimension of student effort is often reflected in the number of hoursdedicated to academic tasks, the thoroughness of preparation, and the consistency of work habits(Berland &

,formative assessment approaches aim to develop talent, which is more likely to reduce barriers facedby female engineering students as well as those students in underrepresented groups in STEM fields.These methods encourage reflection, which enhances learning, and they increase the intrinsicmotivation to learn, which teaches skills and creates enthusiasm for life-long learning. This is thegoal of education. Engineering education reimagined to allow a cycle of try, fail, study, try again,and learn, based on a growth mindset, is progress toward providing true quality education. It alsolevels the playing field, increasing the possibility of success for women in engineering, and reducingbarriers often encountered by students of color, indigenous

engineering students through community building (Evaluation) AbstractOver the past twelve years, the ESTEEM program, funded by the NSF S-STEM, at University ofCalifornia Santa Barbara (UCSB) has supported 161 low-income undergraduate students inengineering. This paper emphasizes the students’ changing needs and what they foundsupportive over time with a special focus on the shifting needs for community building before,during, and after COVID-19 pandemic remote learning. Without additional support, low-incomeengineering students, who often reflect additional intersecting minoritized identities and are morelikely to be the first in their family to attend college, leave the field at

Historically someof this work was termed service-learning (SL) where the goal was for students to reapeducational benefits from credit-bearing activities through a process of reflecting on their work,while community partners also benefited from the collaboration. SL work often faced challengeswith equitable benefits and power sharing. SL in engineering is now often being framed underthe larger umbrella of community engagement (CE). CE is a broader idea that encompassescommunity partnerships in co-curricular activities (such as Engineers Without Borders studentchapters). CE work can also be focused on scholarship and research, termed CommunityEngaged

individual’s innate desire to perform a task for its own sake,based often on needs for competence or self-determination [11], [12]. Conversely, extrinsicmotivation reflects factors external to an individual, often rewards or a desired outcome [11].Expectancy-value theory posits that competence beliefs and task value beliefs factor into anindividual’s choice to engage in actions [13], [14]. Specifically, we draw on Matusovich et al.’soperationalization of the subjective task value that students use to make decisions about whetherto persist in engineering: attainment, cost, interest, and utility [6], [14]. Attainment valueindicates that a student pursues (or does not pursue) engineering because of a reason related to“being the type of person who is an

However, the traditional approach to defining engineering that has guided engineeringpractices is insufficient because it fails to embrace these realities. Therefore, the need for a newframework that reflects these realities is overwhelming. This paper introduces a new theoreticalframework called socially transformative engineering that not only captures these missingelements but also values and incorporates the diverse perspectives and experiences of students. Inparticular, this framework draws upon the legitimation code theory and justice-centeredpedagogies and builds on three tenets (reasoning fluency

Science (B.S.) program requires a one-semester capstone design course. In thesame department, the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) program curriculum also requires aproject management capstone style course. This requirement is among several differences whichseparates the M.Eng. program, which focuses on preparation for industry, from a Master ofScience (M.S.) which typically reflect more academic and research focus. Recently, UIUCcombined the capstone program for undergraduates and the M.Eng. capstone program into ajointly offered course. The details of the merger can be found in an earlier article [11].There are several key benefits to combining the two programs intended to enhance theexperience for students and instructors.

Second, Keenan’s Model of Conscience Formation provides students with a framework forevaluating inequities in each case study. Finally, the social justice case studies facilitate criticalconsciousness regarding engineering practices.

The effectiveness of writing-based interventions to learn domain specific content hasbeen documented across scientific fields including, but not limited to: biology, chemistry,ecology, and physics [29-37]. These and other studies have shown that writing-based STEMinterventions can improve students’ reasoning and conceptual understanding [33, 38-41] and thatwriting becomes even more effective when it includes formative feedback and reflection (p. 84,[42]). For example, a meta-analysis by Bangert-Drowns et al. [43] across 47 studies consideredthe effects of writing-to-learn with feedback compared to writing with no feedback.
