Workingclosely with the two project course professors, Jenn contributed to course planning, led specificcourse sessions on writing and communication, and provided formative and summative feedbackon student work. After receiving feedback on her involvement, Jenn, Janet, and Harold madeadjustments to Jenn’s role in the second semester, providing more time for Jenn to work one-on-one with students and

The articulation ofscaffolding – “It should be an area of focus with planned progressions in various writing styles:project report, research paper, memo, etc.” – showed faculty conceptualize the progression ofwriting learning [19]. However, this conception focused on learning “how” to perform particularengineering documents rather than the higher level critical thinking skill of rhetoric –understanding why there are genre distinctions, and how to determine these underlying “valuesystems” to adjust writing for future unfamiliar genres. This is a far more valuable skill thanlearning how to write a memo report, because it develops a learner’s

Code of Ethics [19] requires engineers to“endeavor in good faith to include diverse perspectives, in the planning and performance of theirprofessional services.” Without respectful listening, an engineer will not be aware of thesediverse perspectives. The quality of understanding that is achieved during communication mayvary based on who is being listened to and how one perceives the importance of the other person[20,21]. This idea is acknowledged in IEEE’s Ethically Aligned Design [22]: “stakeholderengagement and deliberative processes can be effective when… more powerful actors participatewith an awareness of their own power and make a commitment to listen with humility, curiosity,and open-mindedness” (p. 84).

and Their Impacts on StudentsA growing strand of scholarly dialogue in higher education explores connections betweenstudents’ emotional experiences with pressures and stress, and student achievement andretention. Relevant studies identify general academic pressures including parental expectations,grades, test taking, time pressures, and future plans [19] as well as those unique to engineeringstudents, such as family pressure to study the major [20]. Some studies specifically focus onstudent stress [21, 22] and impacts on students’ mental health [19, 23].Students often experience anxiety due to the stress of these expectations as well as fear of failureto fulfill them [24].

These can be brokeninto a few distinct categories: student recruitment, logistics and scheduling, and volunteerengagement.4.1 Student Retention and RecruitmentAll iterations of the camp were externally funded and were therefore free for the students. As theMSOE STEM Center has found with all free programs, this resulted in fewer students attendingthe camp than had signed up. This is disappointing to the organization providing the fundingbecause it means that the money they spent to have the faculty develop the content of the campdid not go as far as it could have.Student interest and understanding of the program was a secondary contributor to
