American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 WIP: An Autoethnographic Account of a Female Engineering InternAbstractThis paper is a work in progress (WIP) that explores the experiences of a female undergraduateengineer, Kayla1, in both professional and academic settings. Studies have found that womenwho persist in engineering describe themselves as having an engineering identity [1]. Accordingto Faulkner, however, the normative engineering culture tends to make working relationshipseasier for men than women, and women are “visible as women, yet invisible as engineers” [2, p.169]. This

In a study of a senior engineeringcapstone course, Banios [18] found an increase of the amount of broader engineering practices(e.g., need analysis, ethics, risk assessment and analysis, iteration, management, and etc.) in thecapstone course resulted in positive exit comments from students.

On the simplest level, this may take the form of asking students what content was unclearat the end of a lecture, and sharing responsibility for the learning of the material by spending afew minutes clarifying those concepts before the period ends. An examination of the function of content suggests that it is ethical to teach less contentin favor of spending a small portion of student energy on self-reflection, helping them to developas learners. When tangential conversations occur about the applications and implications ofcontent in a lecture, instructors recognize these conversations for the valuable learning momentsthat they are, while

Additionally, inclusion training andconflict resolution is part of the curriculum of the courses taught in MIL, as well as theprerequisites to these courses.
