Develop technological currency in the student body.The first priority was identified as the most important with the other two priorities to be carriedout with an eye toward the first. A couple challenges affect the primary goal. First, unlike mostU.S. research institutions with a seperate college of engineering, CSE grants degrees in thephysical sciences, math, computer science, and engineering. Students in science and math areless encouraged by their course curriculum to seek out the use of design and prototypingresources so those students need additional programming and attention if the Anderson Labs is tomore closely reflect the diversity of the college as a whole.

Counseling and Educational Psychology New Mexico State University IntroductionIn the early 1980’s Congress requested that the National Science Foundation (NSF) provideeducational and professional development opportunities for people of color, women, and peoplewith disabilities pursuing a career in the sciences and engineering [1]. Although the number ofunderrepresented groups pursing degrees and careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM) is increasing – the number of people from underrepresented communities,such as Hispanic or Latino, as well as women, remains unequal [2].Engineering is a STEM domain in which underrepresented groups continue to remain

The purpose of pilot study is to evaluate first-year engineering student’s technical confidence and to begin understanding how they experiencetechnical aspects of a hands-on open-ended physical computing design project. A mixed-methodapproach was utilized to explore freshmen (n = 51) learning experiences with the technology andtinkering aspects of the communication and introduction to engineering design course. Atechnical problem-solving and tinkering self-efficacy instrument developed by Baker et al.(2015) was used pre and post to assess changes in student’s technology self-efficacy.

Recruitment methods for the survey included flyers and in-person and emailcommunications with computer science faculty and staff who coordinate undergraduate,graduate, and online programs. We made announcements about the survey during libraryinstruction sessions in computer science and other programs. In the end, we found thatnewsletters and online course management systems also increased participation.The cross-institutional study between three institutions have distinctly different studentpopulations.
