Student responses specifically mention the tour and recall visiting one or two ofthe spaces.

A key ongoing focus of his research is on the causal role that such varying implicit associations may play in shap- ing identities and contributing to perseverance in scientific studies and careers. Fred’s publication topics have included comparisons of web- and laboratory-based implicit cognition experiments, the relationship between implicit and explicit attitude measures, ethnic and gender differences in science graduation at selective colleges, and standardized testing in college admission.William H Guilford, University of Virginia Will Guilford is

One of the most important questions is how does theKern Family Foundation (KFF) and KEEN assess and measure the impact of investments madein engineering education reform?This question is most challenging because the vast majority of the skills, values and behaviorsassociated with an entrepreneurial mindset are new domain to engineering educators, and rootedin the social sciences. Terms like “acumen”, “awareness” and “values” involve human behaviorwithin environmental and cultural contexts unlike a controlled laboratory or “bench setting”.Moreover, EMEs combine their passion for science with an aptitude and capacity to develop andapply so called “soft

Direct evidence includes student work such as homework, laboratory reports,examinations, quizzes, and projects. These are graded, and in some cases evaluated usingrubrics, which define and describe the important components of the work and provide a moredetailed way to measure student outcomes4. Indirect evidence includes students’ self-assessmentof their learning using instruments such as survey. The scores students receive on their work orself-report on surveys are then related to a single numerical range with a threshold value that isconsidered to demonstrate achievement of the SO.

Several years back, students wanting to pursue higher education aftermatriculation had only 3 choices: 1) Choice 1 was to pursue an option from among the pure sciences, such as physics, chemistry, or biology. These majors in the present context are only appropriate for people interested in pursuing additional degrees, laboratory research, or careers in education. 2) Choice 2 involved selection from among the engineering science majors like civil engineering, electrical engineering, or mechanical engineering.

With one exception, only one AE student across three different projectstook one or more SE courses, and none of the SE students pursued deep specializations withinAE sub-disciplines. Certainly the AE students learned something about SE by working with thelarger group, but their learning in SE did not get much further than hardware integration

A secondary goal of the notebook requirement was to encouragestudents to learn to take good notes. The quality and content of a student’s note-taking for eachlecture was graded every two or three weeks based on whether the essence of the lecture (i.e., its3 to 6 main points) and enough supporting material (like graphs) were captured such that thenotebook could serve as a later introductory
