Both questionnairesassessed demographic information and information regarding their choice and feelings forchoosing engineering as a career. The questionnaires also assessed any hurdles they expect toface by transferring to LSU or continuing in the program. The responses to these questions werecompared between the two groups to determine potential effects of actually transferring to LSU.The results from the self-efficacy questions suggests that anticipating students rated this more Table 4.

And faculty gainwhat they want - deeper respect from their students.The focus so far has been largely on skills and knowledge. But as we are exiting the knowledge-based world in which we were educated, attitudes and mindsets are being recognized as moreimportant factors of later success 33,34,35,36,37 . In the literature these attitudes include grit, curiosity,self-efficacy, the growth mindset and others. Whatever the makeup or nature of a mindset, mostpedagogical methods short circuit the development of these mindsets. To take one specific mindset,we know that students are

Pentland posits less global, more interpersonal reasons why ateam member may appear unengaged: Are they trying to communicate and being ignored or cut off? Do they cut others off and not listen, thereby discouraging colleagues from seeking their opinions? Do they communicate with only one other team member? Do they face other people in meetings or tend to hide from the group physically? Do they speak loudly enough?8Research has shown that emotion and stress impact individual and team communication duringthe decision-making process; however, results regarding the nature of the impact oncommunication are mixed.

In many cases, females tend to feel they are neither competent enough nor have the ability to study disciplines that are traditionally male dominated. As a result, females end up having a negative attitude towards the STEM fields of study. This attitude towards the STEM study areas are further exaggerated when considering the fact that there are a limited number of female mentors, roll models, or peers to improve self- efficacy in this area. The Women in Technology Discussion Panel and Symposium is instrumental in stimulating interest

Team-effectiveness within these environments can often be difficult and time consumingto measure, requiring training of the observers as well as a significant time investment in codingand analysis post-observation.
