The first session wasfocused on familiarizing students with the existing laboratory equipment and setup. During thissession, students were given an overview of the fluid mechanics lab, which included hands-oninteraction with the various instruments and apparatuses that would be used in their experiments.In addition to providing students with the practical prerequisite knowledge of using the lab, thisinitial session also provided an opportunity for students to engage in team discussions, wherethey collaboratively brainstormed and developed a detailed plan for their experiments.

Additionally, thosewith mixed or growth mindsets have indicated that they plan to go to graduate school or areunsure at this point; however all those with a fixed mindset indicated that were not planning togo to graduate school. Finally, those with fixed mindsets note that their biggest challenges aremaking connections or planning for their futures. For instance, one senior fixed mindset studentresponded to their biggest challenge by noting, “The biggest challenge I am facing in collegeright

Of interest from the survey results are evaluation strategiesfor which faculty have high opinions of their value but low use in practice. This points to theneed for guidance on how to implement those strategies. In addition, evaluation strategies thathad consistently high utilization would be ideal candidates for the development of standardizedtemplates and procedures so that any faculty member
