last several decades, there are an increasing number of programs designed toengage preschool-age children and their families in engineering design [1], [2]. Creating learningopportunities for children at an early age is critical for supporting long-term engineering-relatedinterest development and career pathways [3], [4]. Out-of-school, family-based engineeringexperiences can be powerful catalysts supporting young children’s engagement with engineeringdesign practices and the development of engineering-related interests and identities [5]–[8].These experiences can also have an important influence on parents, including their motivation tocreate new engineering-related learning opportunities for their children and the ways theysupport children’s

The new COM course will replace COM 221 as the course beingmerged with EGR 201.While starting this instruction early in the students’ career is vital, the authors acknowledge thatit is insufficient to address students’ needs. Students need additional opportunities to practicewhat they have learned, to reflect on their learning, and to develop the necessary habits. To theseends, it is essential that quality learning environments be created in the courses students take intheir second and third years.To accomplish this objective, the technical writing course, COM 221, will be coordinated with asecond-year course, likely ES 202 Solid Mechanics.

Thephysical boundaries, such as independent space, and symbolic boundaries, such as distinctknowledge bases, emanating from the disciplinary boundedness, create an “us/them” sortingmechanism among disciplinary tribes.

Therefore, it is important tounderstand how multiracial student identity is formed, shaped, and enacted by various actorsthroughout a student’s engineering career.

For example, grades influence thenumber of scholarships and types of financial assistance offered to students, with higher gradesyielding more financial support.
