It was noticeable that interest in engineering in middle school no longerincreased female students’ odds of choosing engineering as a career at the end of high school. Itcould be inferred that female students’ engineering career interest in middle school only affectedtheir interest at the beginning, not the end of high school, as students might have the option totake more

qualitative approach for examining language mediated frames that highlight someaspects of social reality while obscuring other aspects [52]. These frames or discourses may bespoken or communicated through “texts”, including the multimodal texts like videogames [11],[53]. To identify any discourses in Iconoclasts, the author analyzed the recorded dialogue fromthe game and associated notes on the story or storytelling from the research journal. Particularattention was given to engineering and technology topics and what was being included or excludedabout the topic, what assumptions the discourse(s) carried and which characters were invoking thediscourse(s).

If we, for instance, take modeling as an example, being able to modelconstitutes an important and direct predictor of conceptual understanding of often-complicatedengineering topics, such as heat transfer [42]. To sum up on these “good-to-be-familiar with”topics, they are covered in all labs (Labs #1–#6) and will become a part of necessary skills as apracticing engineer in the future no matter what field of engineering s/he choose to

3/18/18, 4:45 PMWork-in-Progress: Development of a Virtual Reality Educational Game for Waste Management: Attack of the Recyclops1. Introduction Negative impacts of human consumption and waste on the natural environment is a long-researched topic, which led the international scientific confidence in the human-influencedclimate change to reach its highest point (95-100% likelihood) in 2014 [1]–[6]. A significantreason for this impact is the fact that much of the waste ends in landfills, rather than recyclingfacilities. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s most recent report shows that morethan 50% of the 259-million-ton municipal solid waste (MSW) goes to landfills [7]. This waste,in turn, rots and produces the
