studyingengineering remain relatively stable throughout college; so understanding what motivates studentsto pursue an engineering career is important for developing strategies to engage students early intheir community college pathway [16], [17].Our study suggests that men and women have similar motivations for studying engineering. Surveyrespondents indicated that they were most motivated by intrinsic behavioral and psychologicalfactors, such as a desire to build things. Students also reported a high degree of social goodmotivation (i.e. a belief that technology and engineering skills contribute to the good of society).Unlike previous research using the same survey instrument with undergraduate students at four-year universities [16], women in the current

These schools are responding to the public’s demands for STEM and STEAMeducation and to the inclusion of engineering in the Next Generation Science Standards (NRC,2013). Accordingly, a growing number of organizations offer K-5 curriculum materials thatinclude engineering design challenges, such as Engineering is Elementary (EiE), PictureSTEM,FOSS Next Generation Edition, LEGOEngineering, TeachEngineering, PBS Design Squad, andmore. After elementary educators make curricular choices from the range of options, their nextdecisions are often about scaffolds, technological tools, classroom norms, differentiationstrategies, and other instructional supports. They might ask: what instructional supports can weadd to engineering

In terms of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors,studies have also found that first-generation students are 6% less likely to complete a degree inthese fields compared to their continuing-generation peers [2]. Research focusing on theengagement of first-generation college students in engineering is a topic that has not been widelyexplored up to this point. Because of the present battles that first-generation students face, moreresearch on their engagement is essential to aid them in achieving their educational goals.This work-in-progress (WIP) research utilizes the National Survey of Student Engagement(NSSE) as the main data collection instrument [3]. This survey is 40 questions
, students are also completing the one-semester intensive EDP experience remotely in their home communities; this is planned tocontinue as an option into the future. Upon completion of the EDP, students enter 24 months ofco-op placement/on-line learning, returning to the institution after 12 months and 24 months forone-week examination periods (See Figure 2.).Figure 2. Co-op Program ModelThe motivations to start the new program come from a desire to move towards work-basedlearning, empowering student engineers to gain more practical experience while funding a largerpercentage of their own education than through a traditional engineering education. Theevolution of learning technologies empowers the attainment of this goal more so today than inthe

Deliberate practice can change anycomplex State i into the directly following complete State i+1. So we could apply principles andguidelines of DP to maximize the impact of times students spent in practice.

conceptualization of leadership within the engineering community and student designcourses specifically may be in need of updating to a shared leadership paradigm. In this modernage of increased technology and rapid industrial pace, the shared leadership paradigm’sdevelopment takes into account that it is nearly impossible for one person to have the knowledge,skills, and abilities for all aspects of highly intellectual work6 or necessary to make well-informedleadership decisions independently. This concept of knowledge distribution across multiplepeople is an accurate description of a situated learning environment.
