Researchers have suggested that culture is especiallyimportant for women to persist in a field [23], [30]. A culture ofEngineering with Engineers”could result in graduates who not only are prepared technically and professionally with apractical, realistic understanding of what it is to be an engineer, but who also identify with andare committed to the engineering profession. Hence, results of the study are hoped to lead to aclearer understanding of the changes that promote engineering identities, particularly in women,and how such identities affect students’ sense of belonging in a program and their persistence inthe major.It

Said differently, Ge et al.’s [13] cross-sectional study showed that White engineering students demonstrate a higher predispositiontowards a growth mindset and a higher predisposition towards endorsing a fixed view of theirabilities. An exploratory study aimed at understanding the relationship between students’engineering identity and mindsets longitudinally found that both a fixed and a growth mindsetwere positive predictors of identity [14]. However, the authors did acknowledge that there may bemoderating effects not considered in the model, such as course difficulty, that may also helpexplain the positive relationships [14]. The studies

It is thus imperative to evaluate the impactof the teacher training program on the unique identities of the teachers under study and howthey develop.Commitment. Teachers’ commitment plays a central role in the expansion and, subse-quently, the sustenance of computer science education, both on a rural and urban scale.Teacher training supports educators by boosting their commitment and confidence in theirability to teach computer science as well as leading students in completing course capstoneprojects [40].

Towards this end, we aspire to shift School community members’ cognitiveand affective knowledge of power and privilege. While there are quantitative assessment toolsthat measure related constructs (e.g. cultural competencies), we are not aware of any instrumentsthat measure a person’s understanding of social power and oppression, particularly how sociallyconstructed differences and identities like gender, race, and class intersect and combine to affectpeople’s lives in various settings.

Undergraduateengineering students can fill this need by learning how to be effective leaders during theirformation as engineers. Unfortunately, many engineering students graduate with littledevelopment of leadership skills; engineering educators do not currently have asufficient understanding of how engineering students develop into leaders.This NSF ECE supported project seeks to improve educators’ understanding of the interactionbetween leadership and engineering identities in the formation of undergraduate engineers.

has emerged as a core skill for thesuccess of new graduates and career growth. While the leadership studies field enjoys a broadliterature base, there is concern that many leadership development efforts have not demonstratedquantitatively substantive impacts on their students [9]. Some suggest this may be due to thecomplex, individual, and dynamic nature of leader development [10].IdentityOne approach that has emerged to meet the challenges of leader formation is identity (how onesees oneself, and is seen by others, in society). This approach has seen growth in the leadershipstudies field (e.g.,[3]) but is yet to be widely applied within an engineering context [11].
