However, not all strategies need focus exclusively on theindividual student; a powerful means to enhance a student’s academic interest and performanceis through the culture and environment of the classroom [7-8]. In fact, one could speculate thatindividual focus on particular students by an educator need be optimized, as social implicationscould have detriment to equitable goals. Therefore, this sum of interpersonal interactionsbetween students and the educator, in its optimal form, would allow for shared experience andachievement between students, spurring peer support and

Most of these factors appear in direct contact with are directly related to students’interactions and relations with people around them such as faculty, classmates, lab instructors,teaching assistants, significant others, family members, friends, and college staff. The researchersemphasized that faculty and peer interaction is one of the biggest driving forces behind increasingthe sense of belonging among those students in higher education. This can range from saying helloto having a casual interaction with a professor in the hallway. Accordingly, faculty plays one ofthe most crucial roles in improving students feeling of belonging to

Prior to forming groups and as part of the Handbook, students are asked to reflect ontheir identities, strengths, communication and conflict styles. As part of this, they complete aseries of self-assessments [12] and generate an asset map where they give thought to how theirlife experiences, not only educational experiences, will benefit a team. For an example of whatan asset map looks like, see examples in [4], [13]. Further, students read several articleshighlighting diversity and engineering and write a short

Since this course is one of the first technical courses thestudents have to take, the latest approach is to incorporate hands-on laboratory experience withthe goal of getting the freshmen accustomed with novel techniques of acquiring data, buildingthe skills to analyze and investigate data using Excel software, writing a laboratory report, usinga Word processor, and comparing their results with computer simulation results using Matlab orSimulink. At the end of the course each student will have the opportunity to improve theirpresentation skills by presenting their findings in front of their peers using PowerPoint.

The first was the standardreadings and lectures on the gender gap in STEM fields. However, this did not lend itself well toassessment of the student awareness as an outcome, as reading and listening to lectures are notquantifiable.The next approach tried was an assignment using an Implicit Association Test to gauge studentattitudes toward the gender and science.
