engineering education (TEE)component of the program. Three main goals for the curricula are: (1) to immerse learners in challengingand stimulating classrooms where reliance in memorization, as normally done in the Dominicanclassrooms, is discouraged and the focus is instead on critical thinking, creativity, discovering engineeringand technology, and building collaborative (and leadership) skills. (2) Motivate the learners' curiosity andinstill in the young minds interest for learning. As previously stated, the Dominican classroomsconsistently discourage curiosity, creativity, and inquiry. (3) Improve understanding of the nature ofscience, engineering, and technology to widen the horizons, motivate students to pursue studies in STEMfields, and

Educational Research and Methods
Instructor Implements Project-Based Learning 1. Introduction & Objectives In the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Manitoba, Canada, a novice instructor with more than a decade of industry experience in consulting engineering practice re-designed a third-year structural engineering design course around a project- based instructional method. The impetus for changing the course was twofold: his own industry experience that drove his desire to educate students with the engineering knowledge and skills, and foster in them the engineering mind-set to succeed in industry; as well as the fact that the structural course that he was charged with teaching had

The dynamic interplay between personalPCK and classroom context emerges as a crucial factor, with these instructors tailoring theirpractices to align with both their teaching styles and student needs. Moreover, these instructors'beliefs and prior experiences act as filters or amplifiers for their classroom practices. Thisresearch provides valuable insights for current and future first-year engineering instructors,guiding them on leveraging content expertise, balancing personal PCK with classroom dynamics,and being mindful of the beliefs shaping instructional practices.

broadnature of engineering (e.g., [36],[44],[46],[47]). With this in mind, the male students in our studywho took more than one sociotechnical course may have gained a better understanding of thebroader aspects of engineering, helping them to obtain a more holistic view of engineering,which leads to an increase in their sense of belonging in engineering. However, among femalestudents in our study, sense of belonging in engineering was not influenced as much by theirunderstanding of the broad nature of the field. This finding is surprising given that otherresearchers have determined that female students tend to place more importance on the socialand contextual aspects of engineering than their male peers [21]-[23],[50].

explicitly were. Althoughprevious research suggests that engineering doctoral students are motivated by and mindful of theircareer goals [35], we found that three of the four participants were not actively thinking about theircareer goals. In further discussions, the participants explained that their careers seemed so distantin the future that it did not make sense for them to seriously consider career goals as first-yearstudents. Although the participants were not hyper-focused on their career goals throughout theinterviews, they did experience changes in these goals. As they became more socialized inacademia, they experienced academic disenchantment [16], [17]. Mark Lankenau and Tashadisagreed with some of the mainstream teaching and

researchers seek to understand whether and to what extent thedevelopment of engineering “habits of mind and action” in middle school STEM (science,technology, engineering, and math) courses leads to improvements in problem solving abilities,integration of STEM content, and increased interest in engineering. The Next Generation ScienceStandards (NGSS; NGSS Lead States, 2013) call for “raising engineering design to the samelevel as scientific inquiry in science classroom instruction at all levels” (p. 1). Reflecting thisemphasis on engineering as a core idea, recent reforms include proficiency in engineering designas a key component of college and career readiness (Auyang, 2004; Carr, Bennett, & Strobel,2012; Duderstadt, 2008; Kelly, 2014

As a result, the fourth-grade students engaged in the engineering design process to construct and test dam designs withthe community context in mind, grappled with the ethics of engineering, and offered alternativesolutions. This example demonstrates the power of connecting an engineering task to place, localhistory, and community and cultural contexts to increase relevance and importance for students.Other CRED tasks developed by teachers included areas of interest such as: designing a filtrationsystem to improve indoor air quality, developing a severe weather app to be used by teen drivers,creating a model of a

Ideally, researchers could plan for SDA prior to datacollection, first carefully considering whether the planned data could and should be available forSDA and, then, as appropriate, defining the project scope
