Science and Engineering Fairs (Evaluation)Science and Engineering (S&E) fairs are a valuable educational activity that are believed toincrease students’ engagement and learning in science and engineering by using inquiry-focusedlearning, engaging students in authentic scientific practices and engineering design processes [1-3], and emphasizing creativity [4, 5]. Proponents also argue that S&E fairs enhance students’interest in science and science careers [6, 7] as well as engineering [2]. From the fair, studentsreport that they have learned more about the scientific process and engineering design, althoughthey may not all feel their attitudes towards STEM fields has improved [2, 8]. In this paper, wefocus on science attitudes, but because

This can be used as one form ofinsight into the curriculum’s influence on the team’s decision processes and also an indicator ofwhether student learning of science occurred through the use of the structured EDP [30], [32],[33].

theproportional representation issue does not actually create an inclusive environment supportive ofstudent success [5-7]. Just as equality does not equal equity [8]; parity does not equal inclusion[6, 9]. Hurtado and colleagues (2012) pointed out how compositional diversity is only one factorin creating a diverse learning environment [10]. Efforts designed to increase compositionaldiversity neglect the experiences and different combinations of barriers that individuals mustconfront. "Underrepresented" could also be considered a form of spot-lighting, of continuouslyreminding students that each of them is a "representative" for their social identity group(s) [11].This socially-taxing language reminds individuals that their group is judged by the

Students accumulate transfer student capital,or knowledge about the transfer process, at sending institutions (i.e., the place(s) where studentsbegin their degree paths), receiving institutions (i.e., the final degree-granting institution), andpotentially from non-institutional sources. The development of transfer student capital maycome from experiences related to learning and study skills, course learning, perceptions of thetransfer process, academic advising and counseling, and experiences with faculty.

One principal reason for this faltering economy is the United States’ inability todevelop qualified science and engineering (S&E) human capital, in particular women andminorities. However, diversity in the S&E workforce has not improved over the last decade [2];and, given Hispanics aged 21 years and older represent 15% of the U.S. population, a mere 6%of the S&E workforce are Hispanic [2].The Bureau of Labor Statistics has projected that total employment in S&E jobs will increase at afaster rate (1.1% compound annual growth rate) from 2016 to 2026 than employment in
