Taken together with theresults from the other regression analyses conducted for non-engineering, STEM-related careers(Table 6) and educational career pathways (Table 7), our results indicate the FGCS with higherphysics identities are more likely to choose engineering as a stepping stone to other careerpathways.These results have implications for how engineering courses are taught, especially for FGCS. Ouranalysis suggests that FGCS may have alternative career plans or long-term goals and motivationas non-FGCS for studying engineering. Providing opportunities to engage in other

These presentationswere evaluated with a rubric by several people with expertise in the education field. Table 3shows the mean scores (graded on a 4 point Likert scale) from those experts on the rubriccategories. The categories are defined as follows: Design - Does the student show evidence of planning the project thoughtfully? Knowledge - Does the student demonstrate the understanding of ideas?

One of my colleagues said that he was planning to write the continuation of Harry Potter. Intrigued by the idea, we asked him why. His answer was enlightening: “I have had to write so much science fiction in this project, that I feel totally capable to do it!”Engineering work affects society. Consequently, engineers have an inherent responsibility as partof their engineering practice for public safety and environmental sustainability, which requiresengineers to practice engineering

Our labstudents typically work in groups of 4 to conduct experiments, and do not have a lab practicalexam on how to use the equipment. We have observed that when lab groups are not closelysupervised some students wait for others to acquire the lab exercise data, which they share, anddo not gain as much experience using the equipment. Since they know there is no exam theyknow they will not be held accountable. Our plan is to try to increase student accountability byexperimenting with smaller lab groups, requiring a practical exam, and then repeating theassessment. 5) Conclusions The technology program students were

desire to pay careful attention to standards was largely driven by the college’s plan toincrease its ranking. Thus, “every hire has to actually, in some respects, move the needle interms of ranking. So it’s tough. It’s tough to do that and keep an eye on diversity.”He did describe some solutions to this dilemma. One was simply working to get a criticalmass, as the college did several years previously with a cluster hire of Black faculty. He alsoproposed ways to increase the pipeline. For example, he has been considering creating aprogram whereby promising undergraduates from his college would be mentored to entergraduate school somewhere else and then have preferred consideration for later hiring.

Our approach has been to dissect and rearrange the calculus sequence into small modulesand to deliver each module at the right time, as the math becomes necessary to develop intuition inan ECE LSM. Our hope is that this approach makes the connection between mathematics and ECEmore evident and compels our students to view mathematics as a powerful tool for deeper learningin ECE.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTThis work is supported by the NSF, IUSE/Professional Formation of Engineers: RevolutionizingEngineering Departments (RED), Grant EEC-1519438.
