Her previous education research, also at Stanford, focused on the role of cultural capital in science education. Her current interests include en- gineering students’ development of social responsibility and the impact of students’ backgrounds in their formation as engineers.Dr. Janet Y.

Introduction Page 26.1221.2The Partnership for Retention Improvement in Mathematics, Engineering, and Science(PRIMES) is a University of Louisville cross-college collaboration aimed at reducing attritionamong our STEM majors. This project unites faculty from the College of Arts & Sciences, theJ.B. Speed School of Engineering, and the College of Education and Human Development intackling identified hurdles that contribute to poor retention (and thus low graduation rates) in ourrespective undergraduate STEM programs. PRIMES’ goals are quite simple: 1. Increase by 25% the number of Bachelor’s degrees

The content of such programs has been driven by many factorsincluding the needs of local industry, professional certification requirements for entry-level jobs,and education advancement programs under such organizations as the National Security Agency,the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST), the National CyberWatch Center, andthe Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).A consequence of this diversity of drivers is wide variation in the types of graduates produced,which is not conducive to developing shared expectations, from prospective students to employers.In addition, as a discipline matures, creating

Our goal is to expose students to their future role as global engineers where they will berequired apply technology to balance impacts associated with the three pillars of sustainability—economic, environmental, and societal—to create safe and sustainable designs.As our first graduating class became seniors, we recognized that we could improve on thestudents’ ability to discover and understand their identity as the Engineer of 2020. Consequently,we became aware of the need to revamp the introduction to engineering course. While the initialcourse focused on developing strong analytical skills, creativity, communication, strong sense ofprofessionalism, and versatility—all skills of the Engineer of 20201—the

Additionally, Castillo and Verdin [42] found that community networks, includingneighborhood friends, help Latinx students with their engineering coursework, consequentlysupporting their external recognition, sense of belonging, and persistent beliefs. As such, theinstrument here suggests the significance of social networks, in this case, neighborhood friends ofmigratory students, in the development, activation, or exchange of funds of knowledge to navigateSTEM spaces.The results in this piece not only provide an initial

Productivity in industry is not just a function of howwell an individual can solve a technical problem, but how an individual can work together in agroup to accomplish a complex task.

student researchers drew from Dewey, Piaget,Vigotsky and similar educational philosophers rooted in constructivist epistemology whenconstructing the STEPS program. Constructivist learning theory dictates that learners constructtheir own knowledge and meaning from their experiences through accommodation andassimilation. The goals of this camp, with an eye to constructivist learning theory, are: 1. Build enthusiasm for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) at a critical stage in an educational experience; 2. Target campers from underrepresented groups and lower socioeconomic populations; 3. Motivate campers to take STEM courses in their middle school and secondary education; 4. Energize campers to pursue STEM degrees

Forinstance, there is a danger to relating contextualized problems to professional development, asone student sees it: I think decontextualized questions are lacking in purpose because they fail to address the real life situation that is requiring the question to be solved.

Teams are formed with diversity in mind, but also based on eachstudent’s expressed project-type interest.
