conversationsthrough social media platforms in the context of engineering education? Engineeringeducation pathways contain many dimensions, as shown by several studies. One investigationwas into the elaboration of self-concept and self-efficacy in engineering education,highlighting differences and suggesting frameworks for improving first-year retention [5].Another study critically investigates language in discussing inequity, signifying atransformation from "underrepresented minority" to "Excluded Identities" to address systemicissues [6]. Finally, another study with a comprehensive approach created a pathway programaligning with national models to increase engineering graduates through peer support andskill development [7].

This Student as Partners (SaP)approach has revealed several critical pedagogical elements contribute to the success of student-initiated projects, including increased student engagement, motivation, and ownership oflearning, as well as heightened student confidence and self-efficacy [13], [14].While SaP is a promising model in supporting the SIGs, the survey study reminds that asuccessful SaP implementation values reciprocity of partnership, emphasizing equal support andbenefit for the students and staff involved [13]. Research further points out that tensions andchallenges in SaP that could potentially occur when different perspectives and motivations ofstakeholders come into play, such

Research on the effect of SIPs suggests that many help improve academic preparation,self-efficacy, STEM identity, sense of belonging, and ultimately persistence in STEM [10]–[12].While investment in these focused interventions is important for mitigating the effects ofsystemic inequity within education and society more broadly, the structure of higher educationinstitutions contributes to a patchwork of student support programs that are difficult to sustainand often operate in parallel [13], [14].

While our analyses of previous cohorts of REU students have shown no genderdifferences in student gains in research-based experience and skills during the REU program[27], it would be interesting to further examine whether correlations exist between studentlearning gains from research experiences with a student’s sense of belonging. By furtheranalyzing the additional sections of the survey based on the reported participant sex, moreinformation can be gathered on whether correlations exist between a student’s sense of belongingand growth mindset, scientific identity, self-efficacy, and likelihood of graduate school.

While there is scant literature on the implementation of a strengths-basedapproach toward neurodiversity in the context of engineering or other STEM fields, a review ofthe existing literature finds that this approach is promising to enhance the wellbeing andacademic outcomes of neurodivergent students. One study found that a neurodiversity view wasassociated with expressions of greater career ambition and academic self-esteem [10], while thepost-program survey responses of participants in a strengths

The key predictive elements in SCCT include self-efficacy (confidence inone’s ability to successfully perform a task), outcome expectations (beliefs about theconsequences of performing specific behaviors), and contextual factors (environmental supportsand barriers). Regarding the latter, contextual factors, SCCT posits that these factors can eitherenhance or constrain educational and career progress (Lent, Brown & Hackett, 2000). To date,limited attention has been given to examining the impact of barriers such as institutionalstructures and STEM departmental climate on the mental health of women in STEM and in turnon STEM persistence.

Marginalized students,including those coming from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+communities, and low-income households, often navigate complex dynamics of identity withinengineering spaces [6, 7, 16, 17]. The formation of one's engineering identity can profoundlyimpact marginalized students, influencing their sense of belonging, self-efficacy, and academicpersistence.

One of thechallenges is that most elementary teachers have not had pre-service coursework or in-serviceprofessional learning experiences related to engineering education, and many elementaryteachers lack self confidence or self efficacy with respect to teaching engineering.10-13 Anotherchallenge has to do with the use of fail words and ideas about what failure means in theelementary context. What it means to fail in engineering is different than what it means to fail ineducation.9 In most elementary school environments the concept of failure and the fail wordsthemselves have very negative connotations.

. Current and past implementations of the course indicate thatstudents gain the most from the course when they engage in both the MOOC and the hands-onbuild and launch section, but still gain a great deal of understanding and self-efficacy from theonline course alone. When taking part in the hands-on portion, students become more curiousand ask insightful questions they had not thought of during the earlier sections, indicatingqualitatively an increase in student interest in further pursuing rocketry. These results arecurrently being studied more quantitatively in implementation of the course at the universitylevel.The instructional design is structured as first learning the theoretical concepts via video lessons,and then applying the hands-on kits
