offer faculty training programs to improve their mentoring skills andrelationships. The Entering Mentoring training curriculum is a popular evidence-based approachused by many mentor programs. Determining the effectiveness of the Entering Mentoringtraining curriculum involves measuring a training program's results and determining whetherintended outcomes have been achieved. Thus, it is essential to understand assessment tools andtheir appropriate usage when planning and evaluating mentorship programs. Since itsintroduction in 2005, the Entering Mentoring training curriculum has been evaluated usingvarious assessment tools and approaches. This study aims to systematically review empiricalstudies conducted in STEM fields, including intervention

While many large universities hadoptions for in-person classes, remote learning and modifications to attendance policies werewidespread [20].In addition, college students who were already enrolled before the pandemic also had to consideraltering their academic course-taking in the wake of online/remote learning [21]. In a study ofurban low-income college students conducted in the summer of 2020, researchers found thatmany enrolled college students considered dropping classes and changing graduation plans

Mentoring is adynamic process that involves both the mentor and the student. Mentoring is a developmentalexperience and a supportive relationship that is intended to advance students that are beingmentored toward their career and research identity. Effective mentoring relationships positivelyimpact students and mentors when they communicate messages of invitation, inclusivity andbelonging to a

In addition, elementary students are often asked towork in teams, requiring them to engage in difficult collaborative work involving roles andrelationships, planning, gathering and sharing information, generating ideas, and resolvingconflict [1]. Engineering design tasks require students to engage with both the technical and thesocial as they navigate the complexities of collaborative decision-making. Oftentimes, decisionpoints are where these technical and social aspects of engineering come to a head; students mustwork collaboratively to choose a solution, while balancing the disciplinary ideas relevant to theirdesign problem.
