For example, one student noted that: “I was able to learn from my team members how to use screwdrivers and cut wood as I have never worked with these tools before. I even took the time outside of class to get familiar with them, as they are valuable skills that I can use at home and in my career.”ConnectionsAccording to the connections rubric [11] that

increasing students' course grades and motivatingthem to continue studying biology.Another subtheme from the EVT review was a focus on differences in expectancy-value beliefsin students based on biological sex. An excellent example of this focus within engineeringeducation comes from a study by Jones et al. [47]. The researchers were interested in first-yearengineering differences in self-efficacy expectations, engineering success expectations,engineering identity, engineering values, achievement, and career plans between male andfemale students. An interesting finding was that males had higher expectancy beliefs, includingthose related to self-efficacy than females, but both populations saw losses in their expectancyand value beliefs over the first

majors [3]. This reflects an influence of self-efficacy on career choice. Self-efficacycan influence students at the beginning of their studies in selecting their major and at thecompletion of their studies by increasing their perceived career options [6]. Finally, self-efficacyis also associated with better mental health in students, specifically seen in reduced anxietylevels in students with higher self-efficacy [7].Clearly, the beneficial practices and traits associated with self-efficacy indicate it as a desiredcharacteristic in students. However, self-efficacy is not simply a static personal attribute thatshould be selected for in admissions processes. It is, rather, a dynamic quality, the cultivation ofwhich should be a central aim of

The potential advantage the student may gain from quality feedback can besignificantly affected by the effort and clarity provided by the grader. Furthermore, students mayadjust their efforts, rather than understand the material itself, to adhere to a grader’s bias for amore favorable grade [5, 6]. The method of feedback is as essential as the feedback itself andassessment has proven to be a critical point in students’ academic careers [5, 12].Additionally, many students who are stressed about their grade or who do not understand

Alston et al.

Their participants, on the other hand, also expressed that their mentoringrelationships did not always live up to their expectations, suggesting that the lack of Black menSTEM mentors constricted developing more potentially satisfying mentorships. “Even on theHBCU campus, STEM environments do not appear
