Except for interactions with teammates, all behavior metrics were positively andsignificantly linked to the EI dimension that measured how much they were perceived as a goodengineer by their professors and peers. Similarly, when a student was perceived as a goodengineer by their peers, he or she tended to do a better job keeping the team on track (B.2), at asignificance level of 0.001. Results were detailed in Appendix Table A.4.Teamwork behaviors were linked to team conflicts in modest ways. Students who ratedthemselves lower on interactions with teammates tended to

We did not initially plan to explain why individuals resist advocacy efforts, yet ourongoing research into self-efficacy and self-advocacy around HC messages in engineeringpositioned us to examine individuals’ resistance to advocacy. Our previous HC research hasfocused on women [9], undergraduate and graduate students [7], and faculty members [17] inengineering who utilize their self-efficacy to understand and cope with negative HC messages.Since this past research focused on individuals’ strategies, we have not considered theexperiences of individuals who are resistant to self-advocacy, or advocacy for others

Correlation analysiscompared change in leader identity with absolute measures in other outcomes (i.e., interest andself-efficacy).

In this study, “design performance” refers to the ability of students to generatesolutions that have good performance in quantitative metrics such as low energy usage. Previousresearch shows that student self-efficacy and performance are positively related both outside ofSTEM [11] and in STEM [12]. However, this study evaluates performance specifically in abuilding design exercise with quantitative goals that are simulated within a parametric designtool. This relationship can reflect potential student effectiveness in technical building design, butit does not fully reflect student behavior. The extent of their

IntroductionThere is substantial evidence that most K-12 science and math teachers who aim to incorporateengineering design processes into their courses acquire these skills through extracurricularprofessional development (PD) programs or self-directed learning [1-4]. Research has shownthat PD programs are valuable in increasing teachers' engineering self-efficacy and thelikelihood of implementing engineering processes in the classroom [5-7]. These programs offerflexibility in introducing engineering design to teachers in diverse formats (e.g., in-person versusvirtual) [8], using various theoretical frameworks [9]. They often provide participation incentivessuch as stipends [9, 10]. However, despite the value of these PD programs, teachers areusually

Research shows that negative STEM experiences such as “weed out” courses, orcourses that are purposefully difficult, cause low STEM persistence in first-generation collegestudents [3]. A separate study on outreach events geared towards female elementary schoolstudents stated that decreases in STEM self-efficacy occur around young elementary age [4].
