Acting the part hasimportant consequences for students’ longer term career trajectories and ability to pursue theengineering profession through economic shifts. Understanding the decision-making process bywhich engineering students determine whether to pursue undergraduate work experiences, orcooperative education (co-op) programs, is critical in identifying how students envision, develop,and form their professional engineering selves. This article is a qualitative study of engineeringsophomore undergraduates—both co-op participants and non-participants—reflecting on whythey decided to pursue co-op experiences and

In order to model an activelearning classroom where process skills could be observed, an introductory sample assignmentwas developed on a topic that was accessible to all participants. Participants complete theactivity in groups and then reflect on the process skills that were employed while working on theactivity.In the remaining modules, participants explore the rubrics to familiarize them with the generalstructure, then use two different rubrics to assess students in an authentic context.

Students also showed a decrease in teamratings of their effectiveness over the course of the semester. This decrease may not be an overallreduction in students’ effectiveness in teams. In fact, student reflections on teaming activities andcases of conflict in teams decrease over the course of the semester. Instead, we believe that thisshift occurs as students learn more about what it means to be a good team member, become morecomfortable giving their peers feedback and subsequently deliver ratings that are more realistic.As part of understanding students’ perceptions of working on diverse teams, we have beenpaying close attention to how

Thus, “…when any three of them are fixed, the fourth is determined” [37,p 98].When using NHST, an effective way to minimize the probability of committing Type I and TypeII errors and ensure that significant results reflect important substantive meaning, is to conductan a priori power analysis to determine an optimal sample size given an expected effect size [37,34]. Below we discuss an a priori power analysis conducted prior to testing the engineeringvalues, self-efficacy, and identity scales. To determine a meaningful Effect Size (EF), that our scales of engineering values, self-efficacy, and identity need to be able to detect we conducted an a priori power analysis using

While this may reflect a traditionaltendency to focus on technical competencies in engineering education, current thinking amongengineering professionals, as evidenced in engineering education standards, aligns with moregeneral trends in undergraduate education that emphasize
