. Thispaper resulted from the Fourth Future of Mechatronics and Robotics Education (FoMRE)Workshop held September 27-28, 2019 at Lawrence Technological University in Southfield,Michigan. This workshop was the final in a series of National Science Foundation (NSF)-supported academic and industrial workshops in a project that aims to define and promote theconcept of MRE as a distinct engineering discipline, build a community of MRE educators, andpromote diversity and inclusivity within the MRE community [2]. The project leaders write: “Our vision is that MRE will become one of the most impactful disciplines of engineering; attracting diverse and innovative students, graduating professional engineers who will design, develop, and

How does extant literature in management portray the value of intuition?Method & CodingTo answer our research questions, we conducted a systematic review utilizing recommendationsfrom PRISMA (2018) to guide our methodological decisions. The method and exclusion criteriawe used are summarized in Figure 1. To establish a reasonable scope for this project, we limitedour database searching to ERIC and PsycINFO. ERIC is a widely-used database for full-texteducation literature and resources, which is well aligned with our research in engineeringeducation. PsycINFO was also searched because of its vast coverage of peer

Maureen expressed this feeling fromthe first day she walked into her job: “I was the only in-house developer. I didn’t know what I was doing and I had no one to help me. The first day, I walked in and they told me they promised five iPad apps in three months…” (Maureen, Women’s)In Maureen's case, feelings of isolation produced doubt regarding her ability to meet heremployer's expectations.

He thinks that women do not gointo engineering only because they choose not to, which is related to the first conceptionthat systemic discrimination (a form of HC) is not an issue, yet the experiences andstatistics of marginalized individuals in engineering argue otherwise. The participantdoes not account for gender stereotypes and influences that impact women’s choices togo into engineering, such as the influence of family, peer groups, and societal/culturalgender stereotypes on the attraction of adolescent boys to STEM-related subjects andemphasis on their performance [48].

However, in the collaborative problem-solving paradigm, there is ageneral understanding that students can contribute to projects in a way that is more tailored totheir skills and interests. By promoting this approach, a culture of collaboration, innovation andinclusion in engineering education and the profession is fostered. This shift in focus should alsoinclude flexible teaching and evaluation methods that recognize that different students learndifferently [14].A Theory of Change for an Engineering DepartmentThe NSF

This adoption and emulation of attitudes, behaviors and practices – in allforms of linguistic and symbolic units – serve the purpose of being recognized as engineeringeducators by peers, mentors, professors, and those who are part of the world of engineering [38,39]. Thus, we posit that current discourses and practices of doctoral engineering students in theclassroom, as they engage in teaching, are a representation of the current culture of engineering.That is, doctoral engineering students enact overt and subtle behaviors learned and adopted inengineering spaces throughout their undergraduate and doctoral programs such as a sense ofsuperiority in their ability to solve

The UMD research guide to citation justicelinks to a basic spreadsheet template that can be used for in depth auditing [23]. Keeping trackof citation composition using a spreadsheet allows the audit to be in-depth and thorough,although it can be time consuming. Codes have also been developed to analyze the gender andethnic makeup of a bibliography and can provide an overview audit in a fraction of the time. It isimportant to keep in mind, however, that these codes are far from precise and are based
