. For example, an educationalinstitution may routinely recruit junior engineering faculty from a core group of researchuniversities that produce good numbers of qualified graduates whose research interests align wellwith the research programs of the hiring university. But if the research universities in that coregroup have a poor record of graduating female Ph.D.s in engineering, then the hiring institutionshould either broaden its recruiting activities to encompass more female-friendly graduateprograms or risk a Title IX violation. As with students, an educational institution may not useemployment tests or other criteria that have a disproportionately adverse effect on members ofone gender, unless such tests or other criteria validly predict

PEP students are expected to do at least one demonstration eachsemester they are in the program. Such demonstrations serve as ways to empower students asadvocated by Elmesky9.While PEP is a means of directly impacting a select group of high school and middle schoolstudents, the organizers recognize that it is important for the program to touch a larger number ofpeople.

Art has many different benefitsincluding introspection and contemplation to consider different perspectives and ideas. In thisstudy, many students expressed the main benefit of art as a tool to enhance communication; inother words, art was used to better explain the product features and design. • I think virtual models are a very good way to explain an idea to an audience that may not know much about the topic or product.

Kirn and Benson [19] explored how engineering students perceived problem solving andtheir future goals, and found that students used different problem solving approaches dependingon how well the problem aligned with their future goals. They also found that students felt thatcontext played an important role in their problem solving processes.
