Hadim and coworkers have reported advantages such as improved classparticipation and better promotion of critical thinking skills, while Felder and coworkers havereported improved comprehension and retention with project based assignments.

Toovercome these challenges, engineers must not only become experts on the technical aspectsof their specific field but also develop their soft skills, such as communication andpresentation skills, to enable leveraging their technical knowledge in an evolving,increasingly complex and globalized work environment.

However, more work is needed to describe what hiring incomputing looks like, and what employers want from applicants. Furthermore, many reports andarticles state that there is a diversity problem in computing, but rarely do these works examinehow viable candidates are lost during the hiring process. Before we can identify biases in thesystem, it is necessary to first gather the existing work on the hiring

Many of the activities implemented in the course have beenused successfully with several groups of students and their evolution benefited from feedbackprovided by the students and faculty.This paper describes the authors’ experiences using active learning materials in an onlinesoftware engineering course. This course was offered to students taking it either synchronously(via online Zoom meetings) or asynchronously (without Zoom class meetings). Soft skills areimportant for engineering professionals and the authors wanted to provide opportunities foronline students to develop these skills on team projects by encouraging asynchronous

sociotechnical challenges related toenergy. The course was developed to provide an “integrated” approach to energy concepts thatcrossed disciplinary boundaries. We collected data from interviews to explore how studentsdescribed their decision to major in engineering and tensions with subsequent descriptions ofwhat is engineering. Preliminary results indicate that the sociotechnical divide still exists in theengineering culture amongst these students. Although students talked about social aspects ofengineering work, these are seen as lesser, rather than a fundamental part of, engineeringproblem solving. Students continued to make a distinction between “soft” skills and engineeringskills, while simultaneously describing the “soft” skills as necessary to

Employability skills refer to those basic skills that are necessary for anindividual to obtain, maintain, and succeed in meaningful employment. Students expect to leaveschool after having gained the skills, knowledge and ability to earn a job [38].

The use of female role models was actively adopted by this program to mitigate the gender stereotype and increase the engagement of Hispanic female pre-college students. The workshop facilitators and mentors were female individuals from either academia or industry.
