contrast, engineers who view leadership as a collaborative process aremore likely to view their team orientation as a support. Shifting from personal to structuralbarriers, engineering workplaces differentially afford human, informational, and materialresources, decision-making authority, and professional autonomy to their employees makingeach of these items a leadership barrier for those with minimal access and a support for thosewith open access. As one member of our team eloquently noted, “barriers are the other side ofthe support coin.” Our Likert scale for questions investigating personal and professionalbarriers reflects this “two-sided coin” way of understanding leadership affordances.MethodologyOur paper draws on research supported by the

AM constitutes almost a quarter of the region’s total employment.From 2018-2028, of the available 4.6 million manufacturing jobs, less than half are likely to befilled due to talent shortages. This widening “skills gap” is attributed to many factors that rangefrom new technologies in the AM industry (e.g., artificial intelligence, robotics), a need fornewer recruiting methods, branding, and incentives in AM educational programs. Someprofessionals have even indicated that manufacturing industries and AM educational programsshould be aligned more to reflect the needs of the industry. Even in the wake of Covid-19, whenthere have been over 658,000 manufacturing jobs lost due to market conditions, many states stillhave jobs that go unfilled

McLeod [3] discusses how Kolb’sdescription of experiential learning is separated into a four-stage cycle. First is concreteexperience, where the learner is introduced to a new experience or a reinterpretation of a previousexperience. Next is observation and reflection on that new experience. This leads to the third stageof abstract conceptualization where the learner’s reflection of their gives rise to new ideas. Thefinal stage is where the learner then actively experiments on those new ideas

In alignment with Kolb’s cycle, the students used concrete field andlaboratory experiences and used experiential knowledge, reflection, and abstract concepts toimprove the grid soil sampling process on campus.

Crucially, the literatureimmediately identifies gaps between researchers’ and employers’ definitions of ‘employability’with employers valuing communication skills, analytical ability, and reflection on the part ofemployees, connecting these attributes with greater flexibility and organizational adaptation [7].Perhaps employers are seeking future leaders as well. This would support the heavy recruiting ofCitadel engineering graduates since leadership is a critical developmental pillar at the institution.Johnson and Hackman believe that leadership is a human condition based on the use ofcommunication (verbal and nonverbal) to obtain organizational goals, while purposelydisplaying organizational values and behaviors through

What sparked curiosity and/or satisfaction when working on this project? What challenges did you encounter? Students were then asked what grade they think their project deserves. o This deliverable is graded by review of the student’s self-reflection and suggested final grade.

Because analysis of open-ended responses was the focus of theresearch, we did not find it necessary to exclude data based on incomplete interest levelresponses. The third criterion was legibility; if a response could not be read, the response wasdeemed unusable.

The PD was developed based on the ASEE P-12 Framework for Engineering Learning(p12framework.asee.org). During the PD, parents engaged in an engineering design activity ingroups of three-four, without being introduced to any engineering design processes/frameworks.They were then asked to reflect on and discuss their design practices and processes
