Data from this study comesfrom student survey responses (n=19,191) on the Student Post-Secondary Instructional PracticesSurvey as part of the NSF-funded Progress Through Calculus project, which examined studentreports of introductory mathematics programs across the United States. We analyzed the datausing a cumulative link mixed model on the survey items related to instructional practice,academic performance, and affective beliefs to determine which items exhibited a minoritizedrole model effect.

in this article.Dr. Marie Stettler Kleine’s research on humanitarian and integrated engineering programsinspired her reflection on how different forms of contextualization and the vocabulary used todescribe them signal different ways to best teach engineers. Her graduate training in science andtechnology studies and human-centered design prepared her to see that these forms ofcontextualization are much more nuanced than using particular language, but this varyinglanguage fundamentally changes the engineering pedagogy in practice. She continues tointerrogate why and how engineering educators learn from other disciplines to explicitlyprioritize contextualization.For Dr. Kari Zacharias, this project has been an opportunity to reflect on the

However, the ways in whichclubs help in professional formation and the specific forms of learning within clubs is poorlyunderstood [10].

Thus, although we draw onMagali Larson’s (1977) notion of “professional project” to document how and when engineeringeducators act to bolster their professional image, it is as important to this study that we alsoemploy a basic understanding of the distinct professional configuration of engineering, and howthis configuration shapes the profession’s educational reform practices. In this respect, the earlystudies of the engineering profession remain an important point of departure (Layton 1971;McMahon 1984; Sinclair 1980; Reynolds 1983; also Noble 1977
