publications.ENGR 103 – User-Centered Design (UCD)UCD is a required course for engineering majors taken during the second or third semester. Inaddition to the design principles that are often covered in most first-year design classes, UCDintroduces students to the idea that engineering is not just a technical field but rather asociotechnical and sociopolitical endeavor, by introducing strategies for developing designs thatemphasize how users interact with the final product [1]. For example, when evaluating theefficacy of a design, students reflect on questions such as: Could this design create controversy?What are the lasting positive and negative implications/ impacts/ consequences of theinnovation? Who is the technology designed for? Who are the

The remaining 187students who overpersisted did not graduate within six years, though some did graduate later.Confidence in MajorWe studied the major paths of the students into and out of engineering by measuring students’self-reported intended major in a first-year engineering program and how confident they were intheir choice of major. Though students are not permitted to officially declare a major until theend of their first year of study, we found that most students had decided on a specific engineeringmajor in the beginning of their first

thinking, and identities as engineers than as unique innovators [1]– [3].Students who do not conform to this mold of “being an engineer” are often alienated fromengineering, do not develop engineering identities, and leave engineering, which reduces themuch-needed human potential for innovation [4], [5].Most diversity literature focuses on the intent to increase access and provide equitableexperiences to students who are often marginalized in engineering (i.e., women, students ofcolor, students with visible and non-visible disabilities, and students in the LGBTQ+community). However, our work begins to address a gap in the literature about students’underlying attitudes, mindsets, and beliefs (what we call latent diversity in this work) that

Forexample, a group of diverse problem-solvers will routinely outperform a homogeneous group[6]; however, diversity may lead to increased conflicts in teaming scenarios, resulting in lesseffective teams and problem solutions [7]. To better understand how the experience of workingin a diverse engineering team shapes students’ perception of diversity, our guiding researchquestions are: 1) What changes occur in students’ diversity sensitivity, multiculturaleffectiveness, and engineering practices as a result of working in diverse teams? and 2) How

However, there are growing concerns about attrition ingraduate school, graduate students’ mental health, and the need to examine the engineeringdiscipline apart from the wider STEM context [7]-[10]. We planned to explore identity,motivation, and experiences of EGSs through three central research questions: 1. What are the identity and motivation profiles of engineering doctoral students, which are based on previous academic and research experiences in STEM? 2. How does the STEM community influence identity formation and motivational goal setting processes of engineering doctoral students? 3. How do these processes related to identity formation and motivation influence engineering graduate student

This study is designed as an embedded exploratory mixedmethods study of current graduate engineering students and recent non-completers that seek toanswer the following research questions: 1. How do graduate students at various stages in their PhD programs in engineering perceive the role of academic writing as it relates to academic socialization and success in future academic careers? 2.

Learning can be categorized into several distinct modes of engagement includinginteractive (I), constructive (C), and active (A) learning, as well as passive (P) learning accordingto Chi’s ICAP hypothesis [4]. The ICAP hypothesis suggests that interactive engagement, whichencourages students to interact with their peers or technology in a constructive, discussion-basedmanner, results in the largest learning gains, though all active modes of learning lead toimproved student performance compared to passive learning [1, 4].

The project was launched in the fall semester of 2016. Up to 60 students will receive full scholarships and support over five years to aid in their completion of a two-year program for graduation or transfer in either Chemistry, Physics, or Engineering.

On relevant exam questions that semester, students scoredsignificantly (p = 0.014) higher with an effect size of d = 0.64σ when using Circuit Tutorcompared to paper HW in one class section, with no significant difference in the other section.1. IntroductionA meta-analysis has shown that step-based tutoring, where each step of a student’s work isimmediately evaluated, is considerably more effective than answer-based tutoring (where onlythe final answer to a problem is checked) and is almost as effective as a skilled human tutor.Specifically, step-based systems caused improvements of 0.76σ, compared to 0.31σ and 0.79σ
