The researchers hope toquantify the value generated for the students by participating in the EIRC to further bolster thesupport for this program. The dissemination of the results may encourage participants to continuein their value creation after they leave the EIRC.Once the results from this study are obtained and analyzed, the future work of the researchersinvolves answering another research question: How do we translate the value proposition tostudents who are not part of a community of practice? Translating some of the best practices inthe EIRC to students who are not part of it will surely impact the recruitment and

progress paper discusses the Academy of Engineering Success (AcES), an NSF S-STEMsupported program, which employs known best practices to support and retain underrepresentedstudents in engineering through graduation. The goal is to graduate more students fromunderrepresented populations in an effort to ultimately diversify the engineering workforce.This paper describes this program’s unique implementation of a specific subset of retention bestpractices, such as facilitating (1) the development of both a feeling of institutional inclusion andengineering identity by providing opportunities for faculty-student and student-student interaction aswell as major and career exploration, (2) academic support, including support for the development ofbroader

Topic 3 4 Evidence of ImpactIn today's presentation, we will share the details of a longitudinal study on a middle schooloutreach program for girls. We will begin by sharing some background on Camp Reach and theoriginal elements of its design which have remained relatively constant over the last 20+years. In addition, we will share some brief information on other outreach programs at WPI,since participation in these outreach programs is one of the main sources of the touchpoints wediscuss in our research.Next, we will discuss the study design of this particular research.

A study byShannon [11] revealed that TAs who attend departmental training were more likely to havepositive ratings in the classroom, but the best UGTA training was viewed as prior experiencewith teaching. Small amounts of training (1 day or less) that often focus on university anddepartment policies do not provide enough time for UGTAs to learn and more importantlydevelop a comprehension of pedagogical skills, limiting the professional development achieved.From a small sample size of 6 graduate TAs at Texas Tech University, survey results suggestedthat graduate teaching assistants view preparedness, fair grading

There are many explanations of individual excellence and entrepreneurialmindset [7,8, 9] and multiple studies about engineering students [10,11,12] with an emphasison a high need for achievement and potential for break-through innovation [13]. Since the late1990’s engineers and designers have been exploring moods and feelings and their connectionto better solutions [14]. And while research links entrepreneurial status to personality theory[15] and personality to leadership [16], few studies focus on the impact of emotion oninnovative success. This paper aims to begin filling that gap with a preliminary experiment toshow how students experience a story of innovation. The experiment is inspired by Radcliffe President Mattina

The mathematical impact was: ~$28,000 between paying theindividual’s salary for six months and the 30% of the individual’s salary it cost the company toreplace this person. Having an individual in a role they were not qualified for over the course ofsix months also adversely impacts the employer’s projected profit margins. Privateorganizations generally do not view this as an acceptable standard practice where profits are thedriving force.

, studentsfound the intensive method more interesting, and rated this format higher overall. On the contrary,some researchers have expressed their concerns about the negative impacts of intensive courses. Theybelieve academic quality is compromised by the efficiency of time and cost. Additionally, another issuereported about intensive courses is their intrinsic requirement for a high level of self-discipline and self-regulation which impacts the success of students lacking self-management skills as compared withtraditional course formats. However, there are not ample research studies addressing the preference ofcourses with physical activities and hands-on experiences in an intensive format offered in a regularsemester. In this narrower area, two
