developed VR hardware and software to be used in undergraduate STEM curricula. Under his direction, his students have devel- oped over fourteen different software packages to be used in such educational fields as electromagnetics, vector calculus, statics, and materials science: all topics where students can benefit from a rich visual ex- perience. Will currently advises twelve undergraduates in scientific visualization projects. Additionally, Will is an avid collaborator with colleagues outside the engineering discipline and has demonstrated visu- alization and virtual reality applications in psychology, foreign languages, photography, drawing, music, and library science.

How are students’ GPAs in science, engineering, mathematics, and STEM overall related to test anxiety? 3. To what extent do gender, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and first-generation status mediate the relationship between GPA and test anxiety?Research MethodsThis study is part of a larger grant project (DUE-1626287, DUE-1626185, and DUE-1626148),which examines how non-cognitive and affective (NCA) factors affect students’ success inengineering.

days, I try to put reasonable effort into winning academic accolades while remembering the manyaspects that can make them arbitrary and biased. I try to think about it pragmatically-- it is certainlyuseful, functionally, to me to win an award. It will help me have social capital to move on to the nextmore impactful project. I do not need to put the measure of my self worth in the academic accolade. Allacademic accolades come down to the decisions of a set of people, who may be very knowledgeable, butare still fallible. I try to remind myself that I do my work for bigger reasons than my own self-promotion.Any academic accolades are tools that help me do that work, not an end in themselves. 4.

Additionally, this survey asked students both theiracademic program (the discipline within engineering) and their degree progression, in order toidentify how these factors impact such rankings.Based on findings in the literature, and given the scope of this project, the authors anticipate thatthe most effective way to broaden students’ retention in engineering education is throughestablishing rapport between engineering professors and their students.

It's not like it'ssomething different.” This interviewee said they fit in well and then described being on par withpeers in their coding work. Another student said they fit in their department and then went on toexplain their work with Cozmo, a small robot. This student said they were programming therobot to “do certain tasks” and that working on this project, as part of a professor’s researchwork, was what made them feel that they belonged.

The microcosm of the college campus can be challenging for students, where some areleaving the familiarity of home and family to join spaces where they can be isolated. Prior researchsuggests that being socially connected can help to alleviate stress (Achat et al., 1998). Research alsoshows that minoritized student populations experience more barriers to persistence in STEM highereducation compared to white students and certain Asian populations due to the added stress of racismfaced by these populations (Harper, 2010; Pawley, 2019).

In other words,students are taught to believe that once they begin the design process, they must follow aprescribed engineering route that leads to a deterministic outcome. This lack of

While these results are important, they merelyreinforce what we know - current change process do not deliver the intended outcomes. However, currentresearch does little to answer why. Is low fidelity an issue of applicability or practicality? Do facultymembers not understand or not have the time to fully implement techniques? What causes changes to besustained, improved, or dropped? Understanding these requires understanding how not if change is made.This paper looks at the experience of one faculty in one course engaged in a common first courseimprovement project
