However, as a pragmatic tool for discussing differences betweenindividuals that are not apparent by observation, the assessment is effective for the program. Knowledge obtained from the personality assessments like the MBTI can provideindividuals with greater insight into their energy sources, information gathering, decision-makingand personal lifestyle6. Information from the MBTI provides individuals with a betterunderstanding about general areas of life, or careers, in which they are more likely to beinterested, motivated and successful12.

Engineering Students Select a MajorAbstractThis evidence-based practice paper evaluates a set of resources to help first-year engineeringstudents choose their major among four fields. Choosing a major can be a daunting task for first-year college students, especially if the choices span fields with which students have littleexperience. In order to provide first-year engineering students time to discern, a set of resourcesand course activities were designed to assist students in this decision-making process. Theeducational theory that serves as a framework for this study is social cognitive career theory,developed by Lent, Brown, and Hackett in 1994. In particular, resources, activities, andexperiences in the introduction to engineering course were

Despite being a relatively newcourse, we have seen overwhelming success related to student outcome performance in design bystudents since the implementation of this course verses its client-based counterpart. In addition,self-reported survey data from students upon completion of BME 201 felt this course waseffective at improving their skills and their abilities to meet student outcomes. Finally, studentsalso felt that this course was effective at influencing their academic and future career goals.I

Evaluations beyond this may focus on how well the program actuallyworks or if it is effective in eliciting behavior change2. A common evaluation of effectiveness isto determine how trainees react to the training experience, the content of the program, or theinstructor delivery1,3,5. It is difficult and rare to evaluate how well ethics training actuallydevelops a trainee’s ethical reasoning or behavior change1.

A study by Britner and Pajares[9] examining the beliefs of middle school students relative to science furtheremphasizes the influence of self-efficacy, one's belief in one's ability to succeed inspecific situations, in terms of performance but also self-direction. This suggeststhat positive outcomes resulting from completion of the spatial skills intervention,previously observed with University student cohorts, have the potential toincrease STEM career path selection by females who have completed theintervention at the pre-college level.
