The Expectancy-Value-Cost for Professional Developmentscale (EVC-PD)[9] will be used to gauge teacher motivation to implement modules. The teamwill measure effect of modules on student civic purpose, knowledge and skill, empathy and self-efficacy.

An example of Interest is “I found fulfillment in doingengineering ”.Self-perceptions and definitions were operationalized as students’ personal and social attributeswhile learning. Two underlying factors were used to measure self-perception and definitions:Self-efficacy (3 items; α= .83; ω=.86) and Self-concept (3 items; α= .73; ω=.78) [26-28]. All self-perceptions and definitions questions were listed in one block with the following prompt “Pleaseconsider how confident you were today in the camp”.

Thebroader study also examines sociocognitive influences, such as self-efficacy beliefs andacademic adjustment, in students’ socio-academic experiences. While findings from thispreliminary analysis appear to undermine research that has consistently documentedunderrepresented minorities (URM) students’ negative experiences in STEM classroomsbroadly, and within engineering classrooms specifically, we intend to analyze these andadditional data using social network analysis, which we believe may be better suited forunderstanding students’ socio-academic

These challenges often stemmed from feelings ofunpreparedness, lower self-efficacy, and a reduced feeling of inclusion, compared to their peersin the same honors program. However, little research has integrated both objective andsubjective approaches, to assess and compare academic success between transfer students in theETS program and their traditional engineering transfer counterparts.This study focuses on examining whether participation in the Engineering Technology Scholars– IMProving Retention and Student Success (ETS-IMPRESS) program, designed to supportunderrepresented students in engineering technology (ET) fields

] illustrates the concept of engagement as a complex interplay between social contextsand individual experiences. Engagement is portrayed as a consequence and a predictor ofsignificant academic, social, and emotional outcomes. In this conceptualization, engagementbecomes a crucial factor influencing the causal relationships between students’ individualexperiences and their behaviors in school and beyond [17].Figure 1: The Various Aspects of Student Engagement [16]As opined by Bandura [18], one activity cannot fully address the complex chain of the cognitiveprocesses that make up motivation. Self-efficacy, or the conviction that one can bring aboutpositive results through one’s own decision-making is a key motivator [19]. Self-efficacy affectspeople’s

specified andnot inquiry-based, the students’ main goal is to complete the lab as soon as possible and ignorediscrepant results to finish quickly [9], [10]. The scaffolded completion of this table guided thedevelopment of critical thinking skills and gave the non-STEM students a framework for how tocheck for discrepant results in the future. This visual representation can also reduce scienceanxiety and increase self-efficacy, as seeing small differences between the measured andtheoretical mass could confirm that the students were completing the experiment correctly. Uponcompleting the table for the 100 g mass, the students then repeated these steps for the 500 gmass. An example of a student group’s results is shown in Figure 3

In this survey, the learner is asked to rate statements on a 7-point Likert scale (1 - “not at all true of me” to 7 - “very true of me”). The students rated their at-titudes toward intrinsic goal orientation, which is associated with a student’s perception that theyshould participate in the learning task because it is challenging, arouses their curiosity, and forcomplete understanding of the material. Further, the students rated their motivation to reengagewith the material and their fear of making mistakes.

Likewise, the infrastructure in place to facilitate the courses,whether software or physical resources, can impact the GTA experience in positive and negativeways.The interpersonal network for a EPICS GTA is complicated, with large variation in perceived‘rank’ of individuals that must be navigated by the GTA (Figure 2). These relationships can oftenconflict and create sources of stress for the GTA, who is likely already in an intense phase ofpersonal formation and building self-efficacy. A common cause of such conflict arises from having‘dotted-line’ management. GTA’s in general often balance multiple roles with differentsupervisors, including at minimum their direct supervisor for their TA position and their researchadvisor if applicable

factors by Heilbronner [3]:ability, self-efficacy, educational experiences and interest. Engineering majors are more likely tograduate when they have good math preparation [4]. Less than optimal high school preparationhas contributed to early switching out of STEM majors, and this phenomenon is experienced at ahigher rate by students of color. These students have reported that they were underprepared andoverconfident in their college STEM courses. The disconnect was described by these students asbeing top of their class in high school to being the bottom of their college physics or math classes[5]. Self-efficacy [6] is the belief by an individual that they have the ability to produce theoutcome expectancy. This can be described as an individual’s

Additionally, having applied theknowledge students learned during lectures and independent study, their observed self-efficacywill be set appropriately. This refers to an individual’s belief in their ability to learn or perform aspecific task and is an important indicator of motivation. Students with higher self-efficacy aremore willing to engage in learning actively, and thus have a higher chance of success. As for the latter point, according to Bandura’s social cognitive theory, learning happensbest as a social activity where information is more readily retained with other individualspresent.3,4 The reason for this is

. Otherengineering educators have presented projects of similar complexity, including a fast-returnactuator [8], compressed air engine [9], and ceiling hoist [10]. These projects are typicallyimplemented in standalone lab settings [7] or embedded within junior year machine designcourses [3, 10] and students work in groups to manufacture their prototype from a common,instructor-specified design. Implementation of machining projects has been linked to improvedcourse evaluations [3, 11] and enhanced understanding of theory-based course material [10];however, prior studies do not present evidence of improvement in students’ self-efficacy withregards to specific machining skills nor do these prior studies adequately demonstrate thetransferability of machining
