An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great

This approach aims to improve the persistence of nontraditionalstudents and offer insights that can be applied across other institutions.

It appeared that the college environment was a greater predictor of success compared tobackground characteristics or precollege experiences. The study also indicated that the collegeenvironment makes students less sure of their motivation to achieve. This may indicate that despitelack of academic preparation, these students can achieve success if the college climate issupportive and conducive to success.

Additionally, groundbreaking studies involvingbest practices in teaching engineering to K-12 students have not been within the context ofoutreach, but instead have focused on formal classroom teaching approaches in general such asproblem-, inquiry- and project-based approaches [21].
