Interview questions focused on reasons for choosing anengineering major, experiences with engineering departments, support structures, andexperiences specific to being an underrepresented student in engineering. An appropriatequalitative study sample size is one that sufficiently answers the research question(s).18Therefore, this project analyzed interviews with thirty-four underrepresented minority studentsranging in age from 18-28. See Tables 1-3 for demographic information about the participants.Data analysis, using NVivo 9 qualitative data analysis software, utilized a combination of bothopen and focused coding methods.19 Research questions provided a lens for the

Figure 1: PNIPAM and GO (water box not shown). The engineering process is about finding solutions to problems. Today’s high schoolstudents need to think like both scientists and engineers. Scientists ask a question and follow thesteps of the scientific method to answer the question. Engineers ask: Who need(s) what becausewhy?5 Both methods are important for students to understand and experience, but in order to doso current delivery and instruction practices require modification

. Arc Flash is due to the rapidrelease of energy caused by an arcing fault between two phases or from a phase to ground of anAC power circuit. The discharge of energy may be massive and vaporize copper causing an arcblast devastating everything in its path. This may be more easily described in the followingfigure or from the YouTube video inadvertently shown in the EET class a year ago. The resultsare devastating.Why the focus on Arc Flash?The study of arc flash dates to the early 1980's paper "The Other Electrical Hazard: Electric ArcBlast Burns" by Ralph Lee which was published in the IEEE Transactions on IndustrialApplications. The standards based on this paper have been available for quite a long time buthave only recently been taken

define the terms of theprompt and develop a design brief that reframed the problem to their chosen area of interest,identified stakeholders, and presented preliminary design requirements for a type of product tobe designed. Design briefs were then swapped between student teams–through a process thatensured the anonymity of the delivering team–to create the starting point for the conceptualdesign phase. In this phase, students were required to provide any necessary reframing to makethe problem workable, complete both ideation and selection activities, and produce a conceptualdesign, alternative designs and low-fidelity prototype(s). These designs were then swappedbetween teams as in the previous iteration so that each team had a new type of

ways this is not the idealmechanism of matching expertise. The most experienced person delivers rather standard lectures(close to the text and PowerPoints or lecture notes) with little interactions. The person to whomstudents can take their questions, frustrations and confusions is often far less experienced. Itmight be akin to having the physicians taking medical history and vital signs, while difficultdiagnosis is referred to the nursing staff (or physician assistants). By far, the most expensivecomponent of teaching is faculty time. T.A.’s are usually the second most costly resource sincethere are often as many as four required in larger class).
