given anorientation to university-related services, including important university locations as well aslibrary services and citation indexes. Students also participated in weekly technical activities andsessions that provided training and information on a broad range of topic areas related toconducting and engaging in research. Examples include a session on ethics in scientific research,training on effective oral and written communication and presentation of research and scientificfindings, and a panel discussion focused on careers in research 12. Students were also providedwith the opportunities to tour various laboratories and research centers at Penn State (e.g.,Materials Characterization Laboratory; Microscopy and Cytometry Facility

ofstudent responses and the ethical debate of how we, as researchers, were to react to theirresponses, we grouped individual reactions to stressors items into their factor components ofphysiological, emotional, and behavioral, transforming them into an individual item each. Wealso added questions centered on personal, family, peer, and institutional (university) supportbecause we posit that these types of support may mitigate negative affects due to stress.Gratitude (6 Items). The gratitude construct is a six-item single factor subscale adopted from theCollege Student Subjective Wellbeing Questionnaire (CSSWQ) [39]. We chose to only includethe gratitude subscale due to its relatively short length, validity evidence, and lack of overlapwith other

their ability to concretelyevaluate student growth ​[12], [13], [33]​. Direct assessments are complicated by three considerations: validity, reliability, andethical limitations on truly scientific study design. Validity asks: does the assessment measurewhat it is supposed to measure? Reliability asks: can writing be consistently and quantitativelyevaluated by different evaluators? Finally, ethics forbid writing centers from executing theclassic “treatment/no treatment” experimental design: true negative controls would requiredenial of writing center access to students who want it. Due to these three constraints, “thetypical evaluation of writing programs...usually fails to obtain statistically significant results” ​[34]​.For this reason

The missing values in the originaldata sets for those variables constituted a very small proportion, with 7% as the highest. Beforethe data analysis, we imputed variables in the categories of student experiences and learningoutcomes using the median values; and we did not apply any imputation to variables in thecategories of demographics and background.To

We begin bydescribing the software engineering course where we piloted our study. Next, we discuss our datacollection strategy, introduce the pilot version of our rubric, our data analysis approach (scoringstrategy using our rubric), and ethical considerations.Data collectionTo answer our research question, we collected data on the students’ team projects.

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

dichotomy of relevant versus irrelevant, or fair versus unfair, frames the feelings of manyengineers when it comes to their treatment of ethics. Unlike many aspects of engineering ethicslooks mostly in hindsight, not at all with innovation. It is usually seen as a reaction to a crisis.This hindsight is framed by topics that were seen as unimportant, the first pillar of Cech’s theoryof disengagement [17]. The final pillar is prevalent in many undergraduate and graduateengineering departments to an extreme measure. Numerous studies have pointed to the need toweed out the weak students from undergraduate programs. This builds on the very foundations ofengineering education as a vocational degree for the brightest students. This overarching concernwith
