, specifically the University of Texas at Dallas andTexas A&M. In these early reciprocating activities the idea was that each school award abaccalaureate degree to the student at the completion of a five-year plan, three years atTWU and two calendar years at the cooperative university. Under such a plan the studentwould have degree in mathematics from TWU and a degree in engineering from theselected university. To quote the TWU 2003-2005 catalog, “The dual degree program in mathematics and engineering combines the strengths of Texas Woman’s University and the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) or Texas A&M University at College Station (TAMU) to enable our Proceedings of the 2004 ASEE Gulf-Southwest

I will return to the idea of creating an SELaware classroom in part 5 of the framework.Part 1: Intentional Grouping Almost every career-oriented role requires collaboration skills; setting studentsup for success using intentionally created student-selected groups is an essential startto any culturally aware STEM classroom. Intentional grouping involves several differenttools that help teachers ensure student success. Brown, et al, write: “When teachers aremindful of the important aspects of group dynamics, such as size, ability, gender, andrace, and plan teams accordingly, every student—particularly those from marginalizedbackgrounds—is set up for success [5].” Teachers need to consider the

Results from the pre-test (M = 49.6, SD =22.9) and post-test (M = 82.0, SD = 13.1) indicate that PSTs’ participation in an engineering-focused K-8 science methods course significantly improved their EDE, t(169) = 19.7, p < .05.Similarly, there was a statistically significant increase in PSTs’ EDTE after participating in thecourse (M = 83.0, SD = 13.3) compared to before (M = 42.5, SD = 25.2), t(169) = 21.0, p < .05.The findings suggest that exposing elementary PSTs to multiple engineering design activitieswithin science methods courses improves their EDE and EDTE.
