In fact, the new ABET student outcomes, effective in2019-2020, have a stronger emphasis on team efforts: “An ability to function effectively as amember or leader of a team that establishes goals, plans tasks, meets deadlines, and creates acollaborative and inclusive environment” (SO “3”)[6]. All these outcomes can be assessedthrough the Unit Operations Laboratory; however, the main challenge is to implement practicaltools for a team, either assigned or self-selected, to function properly throughout the semester.For instance

Drawing from Bandura’s sources of self-efficacy [4], engineering educators can be intentional about designing mastery experiences,providing explicit social encouragement, and creating environments that foster a positiveinterpretation of somatic and emotional responses, particularly for URM and women students.The presence or absence of URM women role models in the classroom, administration, alumni,and campus speakers could have an outsize impact on vicarious experience as a path toincreasing ETSE.Our results also suggest that URM status must be considered alongside gender when interpretingself-efficacy and self-confidence measures.

During the March2018 conference, we plan to put more emphasis on the value of the survey as an important tool toevaluate the effectiveness of the program and modify it to maximize its value. Although thesurveyed students will most probably not be the direct beneficiaries of the improvements, theirfeedback will benefit future students.

They are theeasiest to book rooms for (or offer online as webinars), find instructors for, and create materialfor. For the participant, one hour is a reasonable amount of time to find in their day and there arerarely any follow-up requirements. Thus, there is very little risk of making a bad time investmentfor the learner, and the instructional team has a lot of flexibility in repeating the training andexperimenting with content. From research methods to retirement plans, this format is anexceptional platform for learners to explore new tools and services.

Unless he could succeed in thePre-Calculus Algebra course mandated in his degree plan, he would not be able to complete thedegree. This student reached out to the academic support services unit at the university andpartnered with members of the mathematics tutoring staff to create tools that would allow him tosucceed. The outcome of their efforts was the development of PDM.

It was a nice way for me training but I also sometimes didn't have enough practice employing funds of knowledge. It's something that it didn't go as planned.

Expectancy of success is defined as one’s beliefs about competencein a domain; it is not necessarily task-specific.Aspects of instrumentality capture how students perceive the importance of what they are doingin class relative to their future careers. Students’ expectancy is based partly on their self-efficacy10, in addition to their perceptions about the difficulty of the goal, their prior experience,and peer encouragement from others8. Students with high self-efficacy use more cognitive andmetacognitive strategies as well as self-regulatory strategies such as planning, monitoring, andregulating11.

The reason for this is that Project I expected students to collaborate and performtasks, which were well defined. In Project II students had to evaluate different ideas, identify oneidea to pursue, and define a project plan for the remaining of the semester.
