In [11], the authors introduce the approach to understanding better of the“professional identity, culture and formation” of the technologists that will go on to four-yeardegree programs colleges. We can also find reviews of approaches to student retention such asthe work reported by Mann and Tan [14].

Longitudinal studies have shown the resulting impact can causewomen to either transfer out of the major, or, even if they persist and complete, to lack theconfidence to pursue advancement and positions of leadership once they enter the workforce [6-7].Despite the increased efforts to attract women and students from historically marginalizedpopulations to STEM fields in college, curricular development of the skillsets that will help thesestudents succeed and the environment to encourage them through academic struggles are stilllacking. The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) reported in 2018 that 32% of women leaveSTEM degree programs prior to graduation, only 13% of the workforce in engineering arewomen, and 30% of these women leave the

The purposeof the study was to investigate how this napkin sketch activity addresses three concerns ofengineering educators: creativity, visualization and communication, and knowledge retention.Specific objectives of the study were to generate conclusions regarding the activity’s ability to(1) provide an outlet for, and a means of encouraging creativity, (2) provide an opportunity forstudents to visualize and communicate what they have learned through drawings rather thanequations or writing, and (3) encourage knowledge retention by providing a

Key Words - STEM Identity, Sense of Belonging, Persistence, Community, Self AwarenessINTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM STATEMENTMany institutions of higher education in the US do not reflect the racial and ethnicdiversity of our nation amongst its degree recipients.

Engagement with community partners as part of an engineering designcourse has been described as a way to enhance empathy and students’ interpersonal interactions[25]. Moreover, application scenarios via role play have been shown to be valuable for improvingempathetic communication [26]. Role play can allow students to take on worldviews that may bedistinct from their own through consideration of alternative perspectives while craftingempathetic and non-empathetic responses.Other scholars have described

-minded learning (EML) strategy has been of recent interest incollegiate-level courses to encourage an application-focused framework of thought. EMLapproaches to coursework involve the development of assignments or projects that lead studentsto actively think and participate in designing and justifying the practical application of products.For biomedical engineering (BMEG) students, this approach has value due to the high degree ofimportance that design in healthcare and commercial BME-related ventures entails. We created anEML project in a sophomore-level biomechanics course that aimed to develop entrepreneurialskills through designing an orthopedic implant using biomechanical concepts. We have previouslydemonstrated that this approach increased
