Chemistry departments, through a variety of courses and programs,provide opportunities for students to explore the nature and significance of chemistry forknowledge about ourselves and the world around us [17]. The chemistry field, as a major area ofstudy, provides excellent preparation for graduate study in chemistry, biochemistry, chemicalengineering, environmental sciences and the medical sciences. It can also be useful to thosewhose later professional or business career may be related to chemical materials or processes. This implies that in developed countries, faculty research projects and curriculum involveundergraduate participation. Thus, the developmental role of chemistry becomes wellpronounced appreciated and adequately

]. Outside of engineering, disciplines such as social work explicitlyteach empathy and utilize it on a regular basis to make their students successful in this field,again showing evidence of the ability for educators to design learning environments to helpstudents develop empathy and apply it to their chosen careers [12]. As stated by Walther, Miller,and Kellam [13], three challenges of designing learning environments to teach a trans-disciplinary content such as empathy are: “(i) the danger of disciplinary separation of content,(ii) the challenges of students’ gradual transition to accepting a concept such as empathy asrelevant to engineering, and (iii) the role of epistemological differences for both students andinstructors.” Further research

More recently,attention has shifted to the national level with the integration of engineering design into the NextGeneration Science Standards (NGSS).

performance is one of many reasons why students drop out ofSTEM career programs [22]. Aside from transfer students who may experience high stress due tochanging school cultures, students who perform poorly on initial exams may suffer from poorself-esteem and doubt their ability to succeed in engineering. Such self-doubt may result inemotional disengagement with learning tasks. Disengaged and poor-performing students areoften at risk of withdrawing from engineering courses, such as statics, that they deem to becognitively challenging. Because resilience is particularly relevant for students who experienceinitial poor performance, we will study the resilience/academic performance relationships ofstudents who struggle initially in statics and either
