strategic campaign with and for engineering educators who want to enactstructural change that addresses inequity in engineering. We also hope to foster space andopenness for dialogue with those who might not yet see the need for structural change in thisfield, but who are interested in making engineering education better and more accountable toequity, diversity, and engagements with diverse publics and needs. This work is part of anoverarching Relational Organizing/Action Research (ROAR) project, in which we are interestedin achieving two goals as outcomes of research with and about engineering educators: (1)changing rewards structures in ways that value engineering education research contributions; and(2) enacting structural change that enhances

record of learning outcomesdemonstrated over time. But while the advantages of journaling have been noted for educational orassessment purposes, relatively less work has leveraged these reflections to conduct research thatexplores professional experiences.Within engineering, journals have also been used to probe learning in various contexts and courses.For example, Babapour Chafi, Rahe, & Pedgley (2012) used journals to explore student decisionmaking throughout long-term or design projects. Moreover, Wallin (2015) used weekly reflections toexplore student development as undergraduate engineering researchers. More recently, Wallin &Adawi (2017) elaborated on this method as a formative assessment tool for self-regulated learning.Results

Education, 2019 The Impact of Integrating Making Activities to Cornerstone Design courses on Students’ Implicit Theories of Making AbilityAbstractA person’s implicit theories in a certain domain are known to have a direct influence on thatperson’s performance, behaviour, self-esteem, enjoyment and sense of belonging to the domain.This paper explores the role of implicit theory in engineering students’ beliefs about the nature oftheir making abilities and their self-identification as makers. This is done by assessing if acollaborative project-based engineering design course built on making activities can contribute toinfluencing students to have a growth mindset about their making abilities.

Performance BasedDesign (PBD) is an example where the creativity of solutions can flourish by removingconventional code-based prescriptions. PDB requires fundamental knowledge but allows thefreedom to connect and apply that knowledge in new forms. The creative idea becomes aninnovation when it is built or implemented and proven through operation. However, an innovationdoes not become disruptive and alter society without diffusion of that knowledge [7]. Other civilengineers need to hear about, form an opinion of, and either implement or reject the innovation inother projects. The creative/ innovative cycle from formulation to diffusion needs

As consumers, we seekimproved and reliable services. We want innovative, environmentally neutral, andsustainable products. We expect a reliable and safe infrastructure to continue our dailyliving standard. Engineers are needed to keep us at the living standard that we enjoy andexpect.As we enter into the 21st Century, the demand for more engineers in the United States isincreasing.
