these lectures, students are encouraged to engage withpresenters about topics from the holistic perspective. At the end of lecture class sessions, the finalhalf hour is dedicated to a Critical Thinking Exercise (CTE) related to the main topic(s) of thelecture. During the CTE, students form small groups to solve a complex problem. The CTE is oftenposed as a free-form design challenge or a debate; however, another CTE structure is underdevelopment in the form of an open-ended engineering challenge (similar to a hack-a-thon) thatrequires student groups to recruit a more technical skill set to develop a potential solution. TheCTE has often been cited in end of the semester surveys as a key learning element and encouragesa changed way of

governments and universities [1] [2]. Chile is no exception.In 2019, 28.7% of students who entered STEM disciplines were women, increasing only by 1.3% in2020 to 30%. Family, cultural, economic and social factors influence this under-representation, factorswhich tend to reduce women´s self-concept on learning and ability in this area. Women have lowerself-concept in the STEM disciplines than do men, consequently the dropout rate for women is doublethat of men [3].An intervention was designed aiming to promote and increase self-concept in learning capabilities infirst-year engineering students in Computer Engineering and Industrial Engineering.

Inparallel with the original CCS [19], the CCS-S measures critical reflection’s two sub-components: (1) perceived inequality and (2) egalitarianism. In addition to the CCS-S items, weadministered eight additional items related to critical reflection, motivation, and action orientedtoward inequities in infrastructure and civil engineering.
