Paper ID #15705Professional Development on Giving Feedback on Design for EngineeringStudents and EducatorsMr. Farshid Marbouti, Purdue University, West Lafayette Farshid Marbouti recently earned his Ph.D. in Engineering Education at Purdue University. His research interest is first-year engineering and specifically how to improve first-year engineering students’ success. He completed his M.A. in the Educational Technology and Learning Design at Simon Fraser University in Canada, and his B.S. and M.S. in computer engineering in Iran.Prof. Heidi A. Diefes-Dux, Purdue University, West Lafayette Heidi A. Diefes-Dux is a
, mathematics, and general STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics)interest and identity suggest that STEM interest and identity begin to develop as early aselementary school [3]–[10]. It is reasonable to believe that engineering-specific interest andidentity development are at work in early and middle childhood as well. However, few toolsexist to measure engineering identity and interest at the elementary school age.This project developed a survey instrument to measure engineering identity and interest inchildren in grades 3-6 (ages 8 to 12 years). The survey was refined over three phases and testedwith 492 students in grades 3-6 in diverse communities in two states in the United States. In allphases, we adapted existing validated
research programs as a means of attracting undergraduate studentsinto graduate education and research. Through research experiences for undergraduates (REU)programs, NSF supports U.S. citizens and permanent resident students from institutions that maynot have graduate programs in an area to immerse them into research environment at a hostresearch university. Therefore, REU programs are aimed to increase participants’ awareness andinterest in graduate school in computing, science, technology, engineering, and math (C-STEM)fields.However, the recent data showed the continuing lack of diversity in engineering graduateprograms [1]. From 2007 to 2017, there was a 5.1% increase in total graduate enrollment ofwomen in engineering, but Figure 1 shows that

Packard3 concluded that community colleges often provide an entry point for firstgeneration, low income, racial/ethnic minority or non-traditional college students. Increasing thenumbers of successfully graduating minority students in Science, Technology, Engineering andMath (STEM) is known to be achieved by intentional strategies to recruit students to and retainstudents at community colleges: emphasizing dual credit classes in high school, providingopportunity for career related experiences and providing community-related support4.
