As of the date of this study, two interviews in the series of planned interviews had beencompleted per student. The first interview occurred in the spring semester of students' firstcollege year (spring 2023) and was designed to understand students' perceptions of themselves asengineers, how they experienced the classroom and other spaces on campus, and theirattributions about their self-efficacy for student success. The second interview occurred in thefall semester of the second college year (fall 2023) and was designed to understand students'experiences as they transitioned into their majors, and made sense of

She also comments on how long ‘active learning’ hasbeen part of engineering education transformation, but questions how pervasive or wellimplemented such approaches are on a large scale. Students are not responsive to ‘old’methods. We must learn how to teach using the tools and methods we are challenging students tolearn. She uses the VLOOKUP function in Excel as an example.

For instance, they found that “for every one-unit increase instudents’ self-efficacy, they were over eight times more likely to plan to enroll in a master’sprogram and 13 times more likely to plan to enroll in a Ph.D. program relative to not attendinggraduate school” [8, p. 154].Therefore, the body of literature on women in graduate degrees in engineering remains extremelylimited, especially disaggregated on each graduate degree (MSc, MEng, or Ph.D.) or engineeringsubfields.

This recognition often occurred throughobserving their children’s frustration or failure and reflecting on their approach oracknowledgement of it. Children’s frustration was often readily perceived by parents andsubsequently understood or supported as a natural or even beneficial component to learning. Inacknowledging their children’s frustrations and moments when things did not go according tooriginal plans (i.e., failures), many parents chose to model tactics for working through it orsuggested ways that children might move beyond frustration.One

Creating a remote course required several considerations.First, class lectures were held via Zoom.

Teachers may useengineering curricular materials as planned by the designers or make customizations to fit thespecific contexts of their students (e.g., Guzey et al., 2017; Van Haneghan et al., 2015). Forexample, teachers can make instructional decisions to bring in and value their students’ culturesand ideas within engineering projects (Wilson-Lopez & Garlick, 2017). In this way, teachersnecessarily filter the ways that engineering curricular materials are implemented in theirclassrooms (e.g., Lilly, Chiu, et al., 2021; Remillard, 1999).However, teachers, and specifically elementary teachers, can face
