With high self-efficacy, a studentwill use more cognitive and metacognitive strategies and be more likely to select challengingtasks due to their self-confidence. Upon encountering a problem, an individual with higher self-efficacy is often willing to put in additional effort and is more persistent in solving the problem.The continued effort, persistence, and perseverance will increase the likelihood that the studentwill be successful in accomplishing their task.Many reports have indicated that more engineers with strong design skills are needed. Self-efficacy is important because it is a large influence on career choice. If the engineeringcurriculum effectively develops good design engineers

Influences Makerspace Definition Among First-Year Engineering StudentsAbstract: Makerspaces, intended for open and collaborative learning, often struggle to attract adiverse group of users, particularly concerning gender diversity. These issues includemakerspaces becoming associated primarily with white male students, gendered connotations ofmachines and materials, and women’s perceived lack of self-efficacy in using makerspace tools.As a result, women may view makerspaces as unwelcoming, and societal stereotypes can affecttheir engagement in these spaces. Efforts to create more inclusive makerspaces are essential tofully realize the potential of makerspaces, encourage and boost confidence in marginalizedgroups to pursue careers in

The report highlightsthat remediation courses designed with the intent to help students succeed are, in fact, morelikely to prevent students from matriculating into college level courses, in part due to theadditional time and costs associated with taking the courses. Evidence suggests the negativeimpact of these remedial supports increases the equity gap and reduces participation and successin STEM-related careers for underserved and underrepresented student groups [6, 7].
