responses of undergraduate students who participated in peer led learningactivities in online courses [8]. The responses center on how the students felt most supported intheir courses as well as how they felt supported in their academic and career goals.One of the goals of this research is to measure the impact of peer learning on the persistence ofVeteran and active military student population in engineering pathways. At Embry-RiddleAeronautical University-Worldwide Campus over 54% of the student population is activemilitary or Veterans. The research was conducted in foundational undergraduate courses thathistorically have higher attrition rates and present the largest barriers to students’ persistence andsuccess in their degree progression.

students see themselves as engineers af-ter graduation [5]. Critically, studies have shown students transition from interest in engi-neering, to seeing engineering as an option, and finally choosing to become an engineer in avery short period of time [6]. Additionally, short interventions (like a one-day versus multi-day experience) have been shown to have similar outcomes for attracting diverse students totechnology careers [7]. We envision our intervention operating as a vicarious experience [8],which enhances self-efficacy.In robotics, research from educators indicates that robotics education has a unique opportu-nity to promote diverse participation, including meaningful applications, tactile robotic sys-tems, and well scaled projects.
