Results of the study show that,through the interdisciplinary senior project and the structured activities planned, students’perceptions of each other’s disciplines, roles, and stereotypes changed, and they were able togain a better understanding and appreciation of each other’s disciplines, and work collaborativelytowards the project goals. The study, thus, shows the potential that incorporating sucheducational activities and experiences in students’ learning environment could positively affecttheir careers making them ready for the increasing trend of integration of designer and

And Hilpert and Husman (2016) developed a measureof interactive engagement that describes the complex and adaptive ways students rely upon the social andintellectual capital of their peers to develop innovative solutions to engineering problems. These studiesprovide points of leverage for complex systems research to be integrated into studies of classroominteraction and collaboration, instructional strategy use, and how environment shapes student learning.

The first candidate model is amultiple linear regression with no interaction terms (Table 5). Student major is clearly animportant consideration. The model estimates that non-majors score about nine points lowerthan majors. Also quite significant was the year term. Earlier academic career students hadabout four points higher per year modeled scores. The gender effect is not as significant but theestimated effect is four points lower for women. The cohort coefficient is the least significant.Table 5: One candidate multiple linear regression model used to describe the

The hypothesis is thatleading outreach will cause middle school girls to self-identify in STEM while acting as rolemodels for the younger students. Although the number of women in STEM fields has beensteadily growing, this has not been true in computer science. Over the past 20 years, thepercentage of women earning computer science degrees has decreased from 28% to 18%.i This isa problem not only because these women are missing out on a lucrative career
