’ programs.DiscussionThe self-efficacy survey findings suggest that students increased their engineering skills whileusing the kits to complete their space ‘missions’, which was also reflected by the student teams’final presentations successfully demonstrating their completed nano-satellite systems operationand capabilities. To further understand the findings, word clouds (Figure 8) were created fromstudents’ responses to the open-ended survey questions in order to get a general impression ofhow students felt the kits and tools engaged them in their learning experiences. Figure 8: Pre-course (left) and post-course (right) word cloud of student responses to the question “How do you think the nano-satellite kit will support/supported your learning?”The pre

Next, the lead researcher identified significant statements ineach of the interviews pertaining to codes reflective of the Collins’ [11] domains of powerframework.

The pandemic has led to a decline in enrollment andpersistence of engineering degree seekers as the number of students facing financial pressures towork and support family increased. Additionally, mental health related issues, which are knownto disproportionately affect low-income students, spiked, further exacerbating the challenges thatthese students were facing.

I feel like it's been a really beneficial experience for me. I have reflected on [how] I focused a lot on that for many years, at the expense of like a technical committee, right?

To examine these cultural assetsof engineering learners, a quantitative instrument was designed using Community CulturalWealth (CCW) as a theoretical lens. It was distributed as part of a tri-campus study. CCW theorydelineates six forms of cultural capital that reflect the assets and resources people accumulatethrough their ways of living.

The luridheadline reflects ongoing debate in STEM classrooms on what credence should be given toteacher and student expectations and how to reconcile them when they are at odds. Ubiquitousstudent surveys lack scientific rigor and provide limited insight on teaching effectiveness andhow to improve student outcomes. A teacher may have happy, inspired students and angry,frustrated students in the same classroom. We seek to understand why this is so and what wouldhave helped the struggling teacher and students.

Additional accreditations progressed at a rate of approximately one every three years until1990, after which an average of 2.5 accreditations were added per year. Two of the EnvE PUIswere accredited prior to 1990 – Cal Poly Obispo (1971) and Cal Poly Humboldt (1981) – whilethe remaining six were accredited after, reflecting the overall increased accreditation rate.Bucknell and Central State received accreditation most recently in 2017.One may assume from the history of the disciplines that institutions with both EnvE and CivEprograms had the CivE program first. This is correct for four of the five EnvE/CivE PUIs –Bucknell, West Point, PUPR, and UW-Platteville. Bucknell has the longest period of

exaggerate these existing stereotypes and biasesassociated with minoritized racial/ethnic identities. Classes that help participants develop ascientific identity, for example, could encourage interest in STEM career paths (Maton et al.,2016). Similarly, educational programs could improve the level of social support available toSTEM academics from minoritized racial/ethnic groups. When experiencing conflict betweenracial/ethnic and science identity (McCoy et al., 2015), the need for social support becomesparticularly important (Harper, 2012; Ong et al., 2018).

In short, while policy and investment fuse the growth of the electric power industry, theworkforce, however, is facing growing skills shortages [5, 6].

round of interviews was scheduled to take place in the spring of 2020. Due to theCOVID-19 pandemic, and the abrupt switch to online learning in March of 2020, data collectionfor the first cohort was delayed until mid-summer. We also needed to update IRB protocols toinclude remote interviews as well as update the interview protocol to ask about any positive andnegative experiences the students had due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, weinterviewed cohort 2 (AY 2020-2021) in the spring of 2021. We then interviewed students fromcohort 1 (AY 2019-2020) in the fall of 2021.
