tobranching out beyond their discipline. Speaking of interdisciplinary research integrating socialand technological innovation, Leo said “This needs to not be something that people are doing off the side of their desk as one more thing, as is so often the case with academia. So, it’s to recognize that we need a structure that enables folks who are serious about doing this [non-traditional research], to be able to not do some other things for a while, while they engage in doing this.” (00:10:55–00:11:10)In an example of a later phase of a problem-solving mindset, after defining this structural problemfor engineering faculty, Leo went on to suggest possible solutions to encourage more faculty toget involved with cross

. Most scholars agree that teaching methods that incorporate practical experimentsencourage girls to be more creative with their hands and help them to better connect with thephysical sciences regardless of classroom composition [34]. Mixed-gender classroom studiesdemonstrate that boys tend to assume the more active roles, a role behaviour that is observed asearly as kindergarten [9]. When girls are left to take on the passive role of note-taker, however,they disengage from the lessons and lose both confidence and interest in STEM (science,technology, engineering and math) [35]. In the research activity, students worked in self-selectedsmall groups with varying compositions. In other words, this study may isolate the confoundingimpact of
