. Broadly categorized, students’understandings of success related to career preparation and opportunities—an expected theme forthose in technical degree programs, happiness or enjoyment in life, and living a life of purpose—what some might call “the good life.” Edwin’s response to our questions related to successreveals such understandings of success are not necessarily exclusive: “To me, [success] meansbeing able to fulfill your own personal purpose, while at the same time, enjoying it and making agood living out of it, I would say. That’d be success.”Though student participation in specific majors clearly shapes notions of success, students’insistence that the profitability of a future career is not the only—and sometimes not even theprimary

I will return to the idea of creating an SELaware classroom in part 5 of the framework.Part 1: Intentional Grouping Almost every career-oriented role requires collaboration skills; setting studentsup for success using intentionally created student-selected groups is an essential startto any culturally aware STEM classroom. Intentional grouping involves several differenttools that help teachers ensure student success. Brown, et al, write: “When teachers aremindful of the important aspects of group dynamics, such as size, ability, gender, andrace, and plan teams accordingly, every student—particularly those from marginalizedbackgrounds—is set up for success [5].” Teachers need to consider the

Given thatengineering is perceived as a career for people who are good at math and science (e.g., [28]) and thedocumented drop in math and science interest, middle school girls are at a critical tipping point wherefuture outreach may be ineffectual.

The work described in this current paper focuses on this intersectionbetween a change in pedagogy and students’ engineering identities.Recent research proposes both quantitative and qualitative ways to measure engineering identity.For example, Godwin developed a survey to measure engineering identity, with a focus on threeconstructs: recognition as an engineer, interest in engineering, and performance/competence inengineering [25]. Meyers et al. also used a survey to model engineering identity developmentemploying stage theory [26].

, the retention rate and graduation rate ofundergraduate students in STEM fields are typically low and there is room for furtherimprovement. The low retention and graduation rates may be due to not only the rigorouscurriculum of the STEM majors, but also economic and academic difficulties those studentsencounter. Financial support to students alone may not be sufficient to address the problems. The National Science Foundation (NSF) S-STEM scholarship program was established toencourage higher education institutions to develop academic activities to support undergraduatestudents in STEM fields to improve their retention and graduation rates, and further increasingtheir potential of career placement and graduate studies.

In response to this lack of interest in STEM majors, robotics programs havebeen created specifically to motivate high school students toward STEM careers. The use ofrobotics to perform tasks is captivating [1]. Robotics competitions capture students’ attention withthe practicality of hands-on projects and exciting challenges while increasing students’confidence in STEM topics, such as geometry and physics [4].

Identities are formed through practice and are impactedby the individual’s interests and experiences, but also by social setting, power, privilege, andoppression [9]. Social identity complexity theory holds that individuals have multiple identitiesthat vary depending on context [16]. A student in STEM may therefore simultaneously identifyas female, belonging to a specific racial or ethnic group, and possessing an interest in STEM.Having a positive STEM identity can contribute to career aspirations in STEM fields [2].Identities are therefore impacted by the opportunities girls have and whether they are able todevelop consistent identities across settings, with greater variation in identities
