The curriculum is adjusted to meet the goals and requirements set by thefunding agency, while remaining true to the program mission of encouraging young women toexplore and pursue engineering and computer science. Curriculum planning coincides withscheduling field trips, mentor visits, and faculty-led workshops.

Cognitive learning refers to acquiring knowledge at increasinglevels of complexity, as in Bloom’s Taxonomy [3], and is measured through course assessments(e.g., exams). Metacognition refers to awareness and self-assessment of one’s own thinking andabilities [3], and regulation refers to the ability to plan and adjust behaviors accordingly based onthat knowledge [4

Communication is a topic thatmany students struggle with, and good communication enables success in nearly all other aspectsof capstone design.

Bills” passed by Congress to provide benefitsfor veterans of America’s wars. The first, officially known as the Servicemen’s ReadjustmentAct of 1944, included low-cost mortgages and loans, a year of unemployment compensation, and(most importantly) dedicated tuition and living expenses for veterans attending college. By 1956,when the act expired, over 2.2 million veterans had successfully used the G.I. Bill to attend thecollege of

This was an opportunity for participants to test ideas from the workshops with a supportsystem in place and guidance as needed, all in a safe way. Coaching cut across disciplines inengineering and course levels and was successful in helping many faculty implement workshopideas [2].In 2020 nine in-person workshops were planned. The plans shifted swiftly to a remote formatdue to COVID-19 and raised several research questions aligned with this transition: 1.
