Correctly and clearly plot the results of calculations; 4. Program a microprocessor; and 5. Use software to accurately represent a 3-dimensional object.Prior to this curriculum change, mechanical engineers were not all exposed to microprocessorprogramming. A number of students employed them in club, competition, or capstone projects,but this was generally a minority. Department faculty decided to seize the opportunity in thisnew course to introduce microcontrollers to all mechanical engineering students.

For example, teachers’ self-efficacy in teaching mathematics,or the lack thereof, significantly impacts students’ attainment in mathematics5. Thus, aninstrument to measure teacher self-efficacy towards teaching is context and domain-specific4. Inorder to adequately address needs of teachers and to evaluate the success of teacher professionaldevelopment programs for K-12 Engineering, an instrument for teaching engineering self-efficacy needs to be developed and rigorously tested.Theoretical FrameworkSelf-efficacy is one’s personal belief about his or her capability to take an action toward anattainment6.

One way of integrating global competency learning intothe engineering curriculum is through study abroad programs [3]. These programs range induration such as two-week or summer-long time frames and focus on context, country, andlanguage-learning components. However, one of the main barriers for these programs isaccessibility and the lack of flexibility in engineering curricula.

However, prior studies suggest that the creativity of mechanicalengineering students decreases over the course of an engineering program. This paperinvestigates the latter claim, and searches for ways to increase creativity of engineering students.Firstly, a four-year longitudinal study investigates the changes in design self-efficacy and designcreativity of students in an engineering program1. Over the course of an engineering curriculum,the design self-efficacy and creativity of the students should increase.

Buildingon the notion of lack of identification with the field of engineering (especially amongunderrepresented groups [34]), research indicates that freshmen are 1.5 times less likely to identifyas engineers compared with sophomores, juniors, or seniors [38], and a review of retentionresearch indicates that students with lower self-confidence and/or self-efficacy are more likely toleave engineering fields [14].

For example, the assessment of teamwork skills in the academic setting might take place through a variety of projects, activities, and labs scattered throughout the curriculum. (Not every course is conducive to assessment of teamwork!) However, these are often very discrete events and the faculty member may have limited access to observe the student interactions. In contrast, an employer can work closely with a student on a full-time basis over an extended period of time.

The students then applied the VSD concepts to a course project that requiredthem to create design criteria that satisfied stakeholder’s needs beyond the original client.
