Prior to his career in psychology, he spent six years as a teacher, coach, and social worker. Chris is a second generation educator whose grand- parents were tenant farmers in Iowa and Nebraska. He tries to emulate their hard work and persistence in the pursuit of social justice. One of his favorite childhood memories is eating his paternal grandmother’s homemade fruit pies with plenty of ice cream.Delaram A Totonchi, University of VirginiaJoshua Davis, University of VirginiaMichelle Francis, University of VirginiaEmma HuelskoetterYoi Tibbetts

The notion of “making” has shown promise as an active, project-basedlearning intervention[2].

internship has increased their communication skills. The 2-year students range between 17 to 20-year-olds and many never worked in a team researchsetting and lacked experience in communication with team members. However, the internshipenables them to learn how to effectively communicate with their mentors and teammates. Theyalso learned how to present their research formally at weekly meetings and at conferences. Theweekly practice improved their presentation style and confidence. Last, the internship stimulatesinterns’ personal growth and career goals. At the end of the internship, interns reaffirmed theirdesire to transfer to 4-year universities after graduating from their 2-year program and a fewaspires to go to graduate schools in the future

But scholars know little about what actually happens duringstudents’ research experiences that creates these desirable outcomes. Understanding howstudents learn and develop a sense of belonging in engineering by joining a research communitywill shed light on important issues of engineering education and professionalization and informstrategies for how research communities can better support students from underrepresentedgroups.
