After the intervention,most of those internal concerns became less prevalent, and were overtaken by common dynamicsthat exist in successfully carrying out project work, i.e. teamwork, troubleshooting, etc. Thisprovides another indication that their self-efficacy has increased.

While she successfullygraduated with a mechanical engineering degree, Sandra reflected, “I can understand where theyare coming from ‘cause maybe that’s the culture in his family and where he’s from” [10, p. 281].Put simply, Sandra’s friend had deeply held beliefs that women were less knowledgeable thanmen; nevertheless, her male friend’s beliefs were his issues alone and not a reflection of her orwomen as engineers. The idea that to belong in engineering is to be male is embedded in the fielddue to the historical traditions of being a masculine-oriented

Future work should disaggregate racial/ethnic demographics further particularly for Asianstudents and to include Middle Eastern students. A final limitation to using the NEP Scale is thatalthough it is the most widely used measure of environmental worldview, recent studies havesuggested that the scale be further explored to more adequately capture the diversity of modernenvironmentalism [27]. With these limitations in mind, there is still much to glean from the implications of thisstudy for engineering research and practice.

Nearly 90% of thestudents studied in Where’s the Learning in Service-Learning [2] were from placement-basedapproaches. It is not surprising, therefore, that many of the models for community-engagedlearning were designed with placement-based approaches in mind.

In response toengineering standards at both the national and state levels [1,2,5], curricula have been developedto help teachers overcome their lack of experience with engineering. However, two importantaspects of teaching and learning engineering have been understudied: 1) the ways in whichteachers learn about engineering, and 2) how they transfer that learning to the classroom tosupport their students as engineers
