This process of survey data collection wasrepeated for each new cohort of incoming students over the course of the study. The instrumentused was an adapted version of a survey developed by the Studying Underlying Characteristicsof Computing and Engineering Student Success (SUCCESS) project [18-19], which includesitems drawn from previously validated measures of self-efficacy, identity, and sense ofbelonging related to engineering [1, 11].Unfortunately, at least in part due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, response rates werelower on the post

Additionally, Hispanic and Black populations are under-represented in the engineering/STEM workforce relative to the general workforce: 11% ofthe total workforce is Black, but only 5% of the engineering workforce, and 17% of the totalworkforce is Hispanic, but only 8% of the STEM workforce [3]. Addressing the issues thatcreate these disparities is multifaceted, but beginning with educational interventions for stu-dents that enhance their self efficacy for further pursuing engineering post graduate is a start.Prior research has indicated the need to increase self efficacy in engineering students, es-pecially from these diverse backgrounds, to help

the course. This approach is rooted in the work on early intervention strategies.The idea is to focus on at-risk students. In this context, we do not consider the oral assessmentprimarily as being part of a summative assessment strategy. Instead, it is designed to be a touchpoint for a meaningful one-on-one interaction between a student and a member of theinstructional team. The value of early interventions for at-risk students is to increaseconnectedness to instructional staff and resources, and student engagement and self-efficacy. Theoral assessments were implemented explicitly with this focus. We also considered additionalbenefits, such as serving as formative assessments for the students to reflect on their level ofconceptual mastery and

IntroductionPractice and feedback are critical to student learning, and it is further enhanced when practice isaccumulated with timely feedback [1]. Assessment and evaluation are tools to measure orobserve knowledge gain from practice and feedback. With assessments instructors identify datato collect representing knowledge or skills, selects the instruments for measuring, andadministers the instrument [2]. Evaluation is then the practice of analyzing assessment data anddrawing conclusions from the results [2].Multiple studies have shown how low stakes formative assessments can lower test anxiety, aswell as improve student learning outcomes and self-efficacy

Well-being to produce effective outcomes. For example, according toRyff and Singer, there are six dimensions of Well-being [11]. The first dimension is self-acceptance, which predominantly targets increasing self-efficacy and creating a strongersense of self among teachers. Faculty development programs have been shown to increaseteachers’ self-efficacy [12], which in turn improves student learning, motivation andcontentment [13], and improve teaching practices [14] as an outcome. The second dimensionis the positive relationship with others, which articulates the need for social support amongteachers to exhibit Well-being [15].

Intent to persist can be examined in a temporal manner, looking at short-term, degree attainment, and long-term commitment [31]. Example, “I intend to attend graduate school in STEM.” 6.
