Higher Education as the Senior Project Associate under Project Directors Lisa R. Lattuca and Patrick T. Terenzini on two NSF-funded stud- ies of engineering education: Prototype to Production and Prototyping the Engineer of 2020. She also worked with colleagues Lisa Lattuca, Patrick Terenzini, and J. Fredericks Volkwein on the Engineering Change study, a national study of the impact of engineering accreditation standards on student learning and engineering programs. Betty completed her Ph.D. in Higher Education at Penn State with a minor in Educational Psychology and graduate certificate in Institutional Research in May 2008. She was the recipient of graduate fellowships from both the Joseph M. Juran Center for

, achievement, and persistence in student-centered courses.Prof. Stephen J. Krause, Arizona State University Stephen Krause is professor in the Materials Science Program in the Fulton School of Engineering at Arizona State University. He teaches in the areas of introductory materials engineering, polymers and composites, and capstone design. His research interests include evaluating conceptual knowledge, mis- conceptions and technologies to promote conceptual change. He has co-developed a Materials Concept Inventory and a Chemistry Concept Inventory for assessing conceptual knowledge and change for intro- ductory materials science and chemistry classes. He is currently conducting research on NSF projects in two areas

fourth-year students with first-year students for anevening of “myth busting” conversations. The fourth years offered brief presentations on theirtechnical capstone projects, as well as the human and social dimensions that were critical tothose projects. Then the fourth years engaged in informal conversations with the first-yearsabout the requirements for the different majors, types of capstone projects offered and futurecourses that addressed the human and societal aspects of engineering. The Discussion Sectionswere seen as a great opportunity to foster deliberation between the incoming and outgoingstudents about the relevance of the course and the need to consider human and societal factorsduring the engineering and design processes

mastery experiences.Fourth, the mitigation of negative interpretations of somatic and emotional states during the taskcan help develop self-efficacy. Physical and psychological experiences such as increased heartrate and rapid breathing before a presentation, or tiredness of muscles after exercise, can eitherbe interpreted as a positive performance-enhancer or as something to be avoided. Reframingnegative interpretations of these states can build self-efficacy directly and encourage moremastery experiences.Contextual examples of each of Bandura’s four sources of self-efficacy in undergraduateengineering education: first, mastery experiences could consist of completing practice problemsto master theory, engaging in project work and hands-on

understand the content ofthe design project, they are able to address the boundary between being precise and being clear.For even an experienced technical writing teacher, who might have twenty different researchtopics in a class, the ability to comment on precision is challenging. Another advantage of our approach is the depth of the content. Assuming that a student ina typical technical writing course spends 3 hours outside of class for every hour in class onassignments and assuming that 2 of those hours are spent on the writing, the student would spendat most 15 hours researching the topic of the document sequence. However, because eachstudent in Effective Engineering Writing has one entire design course (with 2 hours of largelecture and 3
