For instance, in Direito et al.’s study(2012) of Portuguese electrical and electronic engineering students, the participants assignedlower levels of importance to leadership itself than to such leadership-related skills as teamwork,communication, listening, networking, and time management. Their confidence in theirleadership ability was lower than the importance they ascribed to it.

Overall institutional enrollments ranged from slightlyabove 3,000 undergraduate students to slightly above 39,000. Participating schools aregeographically located in the Eastern (n = 3), Midwestern (n = 1), Southwestern (n = 1), orPacific (n = 2) United States. At six of the seven schools, students declare their majors uponenrollment; at the remaining university, students declare majors at the end of their second yearof coursework. No other data about “population(s) served” (e.g., student demographics,socioeconomic status, etc.) were collected, apart from the change in participation of women andmen within the CS
Entrepreneurial Mindset in the freshmandesign course and utilized a project that involve a fictitious company and focused onidentification and validation of market opportunities in the project [11]. In other efforts,customers were incorporated, but they were either fictional or local. For example, Jensen andSchlegel have modified their first year mini-golf hole design project to require students tointerview potential mini-golf customers. Though students’ feedback about this new version ofthe project has been very positive, they only interviewed other people available on campus suchas their friends and because of this the findings of this effort are very similar to those fromtraditional first year hands-on design projects [12].

Many companies and educational institutes tweeted and posted photos ofemployees and students participating in different activities held to celebrate and promote theNational Engineers Week. The tweets portraying engineers were mostly from companies in whichthey highlighted the contributions of engineers at their respective companies.

Many of the inspirational tweets specificallyfocused on students and women. Tweets about
mainprogrammatic components aimed at improving the engagement, retention, and graduation ofstudents underrepresented in engineering. These components include: “intrusive” academicadvising and support services, an intensive first-year academic curriculum, community-building(including pre-matriculation summer programs), career awareness and vision, facultymentorship, NSF S-STEM scholarships, and second-year support. Successful implementation ofthese activities is intended to produce two main long-term outcomes: a six-year graduation rateof 60%-75% for Redshirt students, and increased rates of enrollment and graduation of Pell-eligible, URM, and women students in engineering at participating universities.

in STEM careers is because the culture ofSTEM, especially engineering and analytical areas, is a limiting culture devoid of what femalesseems to prefer, empathy and social caring [8]-[10].However, measuring constructs such as interest is complex because of the interactive anddynamic nature of constructs with one another, that the constructs are usually self-reported, andthat few standardized measurement terms exist [11]. STEM can be considered as one contentarea or four content areas. We often ask our students to describe STEM. They usually answer bystating the letters S, T, E, and M stand for science, technology, engineering and mathematics, butdo not state any concept of what “STEM” means.

One of the authors began teaching an “Introductionto 3D Printing & Design” class in the summer of 2016, and the C-STEM purchased threeFusion3 F-400S’s, an FDM machine, specifically for the class (see Figure 11). The C-STEM hasallowed the Library to keep one of the machines on loan. The F400-S was chosen because itallows the use of a wide range of printing materials such as PLA, ABS, ASA, PETG,Polycarbonate, PC-ABS, Flexible, Polyesters, Acrylic, Soluble, and more.43 Its build volume of14.0 in x 14.0 in x 12.60 in (355 x 355 x 320 mm) is also more than two times larger than theLulzbot TAZ 5 and five times larger than the FlashForge.

factor into two categories namely; personal andcontextual factors that influenced engagement. Psychologically, the term affirmative has be usedto describe student classroom engagement [13]. According to Appleton et al.’s [12] findings,indicators are considered as the student levels of connection with learning. This paper on clusteringand grouping technique primarily focused on the indicators, because students are the primary targetin the classroom engagement.Further, Marzano et al acknowledged in their findings that the dynamics of how ateacher/instructor produced the skill required for an effective classroom management is not easyto come by. Therefore, it is necessary that teachers are creative in their teaching strategies.Likewise, in 2011, Li
