sign test wasperformed. However, before this test was conducted, the 92 participant observations were refinedto those that had a non-zero delta between their pre- and post-survey responses. While a zerodelta reflects no change for that participant on that item, a non-zero delta indicates a change inthe participant’s response from pre- to post-survey. A sign test was then performed using thenon-zero delta observations to identify any statistically significant differences for each surveyquestion. The test results revealed that there was a statistically significant change in participants’consideration of a manufacturing career, belief of job availability, view of the education levelneeded for these jobs, and perception of cleanliness.

style: Sufficiency of Originality, Efficiency, and Rule/GroupConformity. These sub-factors are also normally distributed within the following theoreticalranges: SO (13–65), E (7–35), and R/G (12–60) [26, 27]. Sufficiency of Originality (SO)highlights differences between individuals in their preferred ways of generating and choosingideas. The more adaptive tend to generate more highly detailed ideas that remain more closelyconnected to the original constraints of a problem, while more innovative individuals tend togenerate ideas that challenge the problem definition and constraints. Efficiency (E) reflects anindividual’s preferred methods for managing and organizing ideas as they solve problems. Themore adaptive prefer to define problems and

Meetingonce a quarter is beneficial in that it provides time to reflect on issues between meetings, but itmeans that participants will be exposed to new material at a slower pace (particularly given thatthe related workshops and distinguished lectures will likely cease with the end of this academicyear with the expiration of the grant). It is anticipated that project leaders will have to providemore assistance to the Advocates and Allies group until they develop a stronger understanding ofissues, resources, and potential projects.A mixture of quantitative and qualitative measures have been used to assess and evaluate theprogram, including an annual

Of the 22 participants there were five students who were not visibleminorities in engineering, nine students who appeared to be English dominant and seven whowere female. None of the teams investigated in this paper consist of all monolingual Englishspeakers, and only one team, Team 4, consisted of all domestic students. The language diversityof the teams was representative of the University’s (and in particular the Faculty’s) linguisticdiversity. Given the demographics of the teams and the student population in this course, theprobability of having teams volunteer that did not have similar diversity to the student body wasminimal.

. Additionally, it was found thatstudents did not want an easy course; they were aware of the challenges that lay ahead them asengineers. However, they did enjoy the excitement that the course added to their curriculum,while preparing them for their future career. The feedback reflected student’s interest in thecourse and reinforced the strong and positive elements of the course’s structure.Improving math skills, Providing community-based support system: Weatherton et al.30 tried toincrease retention by providing freshman students with academic support services in calculus andbasic mathematics.

In this way, Practical English departed from GE 3513, in which students’ gradesalways reflect their documents’ content, grammar, mechanics, and style.Minimizing grammar instruction was always my intent for Practical English. Students takingPractical English (similarly to those taking GE 3513) were expected to enter the class with basicgrammar and mechanics mastered; the purpose of this class was to teach students to applypreviously learned writing and grammar skills to

is surprisingly great – boys expressed a much higherexpectation of success, and girls continued to express uncertainty in their abilities, even afterscoring high on a test. Karp and Shakeshaft32 (1997) found that males dominate classroomconversation and are generally more confident in the classroom setting. This issue ofconfidence is a serious one, as confidence is often found to be precursor to achievement.The second theme that emerged from the interview results reflects issues of confidence andprogram choice. The interview subjects made interesting comments about why females arechoosing not to pursue engineering:“I was really worried about it in high school. I was good in english…I had good marks in

However, this was difficult because they had to keep remindingthemselves that the rake was for one hand. “You have to put yourself in the mindset…one hand,one hand.” A female student shared that she experienced doing a project in high school thatinvolved using the engineering process and a male student agreed. However, they did not knowthey were actually using the engineering design process until they reflected upon this in this firstyear college course.Regarding how this project was most helpful to your learning, the project and the class in generalgave the students more confidence. “I learned how to
