Engineering Libraries

Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) is a Carnegie Level-1 research university locatedin University Park, PA. The College of Engineering, officially founded in 1894, offersbachelors', masters’, and doctoral degrees in ten departments. The college's average annualenrollment includes approximately 8000 undergraduates and 1600 graduate students. Enrollmentfigures for graduate students do not specify whether they are masters' or Ph.D. hopefuls.[1][2]The Library system at Penn State is one of the largest in North America, with several millionvolumes of books and materials along with several thousand journal subscriptions. TheEngineering Library works as a partner with the College to provide learning services and supportto students, faculty, and

conjecture at this point. Introduction and Background In 2005, the Journal for Engineering Education (JEE) fielded a special issue focused on The art and science of engineering education research which was drawn largely from a report by the National Academies (The Engineer of 2020). The bottom line of the NAE report [1], and the JEE special edition [2] was that change is hard, but that undergraduate engineering programs must have the ability to change to meet societal needs. It is now 2021, sixteen years after The Engineer of 2020 concept introduction. Our professional disciplines have come through a pandemic, and we all have changed in the face of strong, and sometimes mandated

Women in EngineeringAbstract: More women than men in the US graduate college, but women constitute only16% of the engineering workforce [1]. Women frequently attribute their lack of persistence inengineering to a chilly academic climate [2]. Researchers have suggested that developing arobust engineering identity could moderate a climate effect and support improved retentionand graduation of female engineers [2]. However, there is little empirical data oninterrelationships among gender, perceived academic climate in engineering programs,engineering identity, and belonging to an engineering community.We drew on social identity theory and extant literature to develop four research questions: 1)Are there any differences between men and women

The impact of engineering mentorshipprograms on students, such as related to their perceptions and self-efficacy, is nebulous [2];impacts are undoubtedly influenced by confounding factors, including the participants involved,contexts, techniques, and mentoring procedures applied.

Although engineering courses arepractice-and detailed-oriented which is different from the traditional liberal arts curriculum [1],liberal arts colleges believe that integrating the liberal arts education experiences intoengineering education would position future engineers to be more successful at anticipating,defining, and solving problems [2]. First, liberal arts engineering education provides a moresupportive environment through a small class size. Students have the opportunities of

The mathematics course with the lowest DFW rate was Statistics (MATH 2328),with all Calculus classes having a higher rate. The course that typically had the highest rate wasPre-Calculus (MATH 2417). As such, it appears evident that the students with the poorest pre-college mathematical preparation (those who are not calculus-ready when they arrived oncampus), had the greatest challenges successfully completing their mathematics requirements.This situation correlates with the trends reported in the literature (Kisi et al. 2011, Shields andKisi 2011, Orth 2004, Shrestha

their analysis.BackgroundHomework is a crucial part of every student’s education, especially in STEM disciplines. Thestatement that “the one who does the work does the learning,” [1] can be clearly seen in actionby any educator. However, in recent years more and more students are turning to copying andmissing this crucial part of the learning process [2]. The growth of online homework “help”websites has made it easier and easier for students to attempt to shortcut this critical step in theirlearning process. In fact, many students don’t even consider the use of such websites to completetheir homework to be cheating. [3] There have been some attempts with online homeworksystems to use randomized variables and questions to mitigate this problem
