significantlyincreased during the study. This shows that the students gain more confidence as they advance inthe curriculum. On the other hand, the anxiety of students decreased. Lower anxiety may be dueto an increase in confidence, experience from completed coursework, and internship or full-timejob offers. However, the motivation of students remained constant, which means that theyexperience similar motivation levels when performing projects. This may be due to the fact thatfreshmen start school with a high level of motivation, which remains high throughout theireducation. This study has discovered that an engineering program is able to produce valuableengineers by increasing their self-efficacy and creativity.The bio-inspired design methods study examined

Similarly, in[19] there was a focus on policies and support services for veterans in STEM. This work diddelve somewhat into the assets that veterans have as students, including persistence or “grit”,adaptability, and levels of motivation and maturity. The authors found that these students weresuccessful particularly in teamwork-based class projects. The examination of assets of militaryservice was further examined in [20], where it was found that while age itself did not appear tobe an asset, veteran status was; it was associated with

Students must also use that information to make meaningful decisions about how toproceed when they are solving problems. This project shows that it is possible to improvestudents’ metacognitive monitoring and performance during problem-solving and, in particular,in their work with open and complex problems. It also demonstrates the potential for curriculafocused on engineering reasoning to promote stronger perceptions of efficacy in bothengineering and mathematics, particularly among students who may be under-prepared for andare often under-represented in engineering.AcknowledgementsThis project was funded by the

The majority of these students‟ performance on the two tests and three to five number of quizzes has improved slightly, but not significantly. However, their performance on the final project was significantly higher due to the fact that the instructor gave them time to correct the mistakes (to redo wrong work), and also due to the group effort

Model-eliciting activities (MEAs) are an impactful example of apedagogical approach used in first-year engineering to teach mathematical modeling skills [3].Even though there are some established approaches, there is still a need for more meaningfulways to teach modeling throughout the engineering curricula and especially in first-yearengineering courses [1].Developing computational thinking skills is something that has been emphasized in engineeringeducation more recently and aligns with this call for curriculum that explicitly teachesmathematical and
