Scholarships inSTEM (S-STEM) project. Our purpose in sharing our current situation is to gain feedback fromcolleagues experienced with projects of this size and type on how to effectively make midstreamcorrections to design-based methods in ways that maintain research and project fidelity. Duringthe 2019-20 academic year, the first year of the project, we created tools and procedures for datacollection and analysis that we piloted in Spring 2020 with the first cohort of students toparticipate in the S-STEM program. With regard to supporting undergraduate students, the planfor this multi-year, grant-funded project is to scale each year, along with increasing the size ofparticipant cohorts, through the fifth and final year of the project.

when the substance was at thequasi-equilibrium state.In academia, once a written description of a problem is given or created, the solving of theproblem can be viewed in two stages. Stage I: Formulation of a procedure for solving the problem, wherein the determination of the governing equations and constraints are considered a part of this step. Stage II: Performance or execution of the required mathematical steps to solve the governing equation(s) using the specified constraints for the desired unknown.It is from this problem solving perspective that the forthcoming concept map has beencreated.

Two associated research questions thusly addressed in this study are: 1) whatis the strongest factor structure for measuring the construct of first-year engineering students’long-term, stable maintained interest in the choice of pursuing an engineering career?; and 2)how strong is the fit of theoretically-grounded structural models of the construct of first-yearengineering students’ maintained interest in engineering careers?

As evidenced by their SAT Math achievement scores and high GPA’swhich prompted their admission, these students are smart. However, they received their STEMeducation in low performing urban and rural high schools and were raised in highly challengedunder-resourced neighborhoods. Research shows that these talented students succumb to theintensity of the 1st and 2nd year university math/science courses.

Because we found that a single ABET-knowledgeable individual in the program willhave a difficult time convincing colleagues of the importance of assessment, we suggest that atleast t o facult trained in assessment are necessar for the program s continued gro th. ABETaccreditation is needed to attract new students, yet the work required to retain that accreditationcan certainly seem overwhelming. The death b assessment mantra might begin to ring inone s ears. However, it does not have to completely consume your time.

P-E fit is a multi-level construct encompassing fit between the person and organization (P-O), person and job (P-J), person and workgroup (P-G), and person and supervisor (P-S) in addition to fit betweenperson and vocation (P-V). I located two studies of women leaving the engineering professionthat utilized one P-E fit theory, Theory of Workplace Adjustment (TWA). These studies foundthat women leave the engineering profession due to a mismatch between their needs andworkplace values [1] and confirmed that gender differences exist in their reasons for leaving[19]. Findings from other studies on workplace factors suggest the exploration of fit

We takeKuhn’s[12] view which holds that a paradigm provides an open-ended resource that presents aframework of concepts, results and procedures within which subsequent work is structured. Acharacteristic of paradigms is that they can “shift” with new knowledge or evidence. An exampleusing human flight experience can be represented as shown in Table 2 below.

On the one hand,engineering curricula are slow to change, but on the other hand the target keeps moving. In the1990’s there was a sense that engineering education was out of touch with the actual practice ofengineering. In response, design has become a more prominent part of most engineeringcurricula. In recent years, globalization and the commoditization of many engineering functionshas lent an air of uncertainty to the direction that engineering education should go.
