universities, where the researchers asked participants aboutproblems they encountered during their engineering curriculum and to comment on problemscenarios. Findings suggest that students often lack resources for effectively solving teamproblems, though “high achieving” students, defined as having a self-reported GPA of 3.5 orabove, are often more proactive when dealing with slacker teammates, using strategies such assetting early deadlines or selecting teammates known also to be high achievers. However, acrossthe board, students preferred to “do nothing” when dealing with domineering or exclusionaryteammates.These findings shed light on the disproportionate burden women and under-representedminorities face in team projects and the lack of resources

Most CL tasks are structured to be completed within one class period,and can be handled by groups with 2-4 members. Smaller groups are both more efficient and moreeffective than larger groups in dealing with small-scaled tasks and projects. For a thoroughcomparative study on various types of learning in small groups, which include collaborativelearning, cooperative learning and problem-based learning, see Davidson and Major (2014) 17.We adopt a mixture of team-based and cooperative learning strategies to best suit our pedagogicalneeds.

In 2008 andin 2015 we deployed a survey ("Project to Assess Climate in Engineering”) to undergraduateengineering students. In each survey year, just over 1000 eligible students participated andresponded to items contributing to scales rating their professors, teaching assistants, collegeresources, confidence (self-efficacy) in engineering, student interactions, perceptions ofengineering, and commitment to an engineering major

It introducesstudents to strategies for identifying the needs, capabilities and behaviors of a user group, anddeveloping designs that reflect the empathy gained for the user group to address their needs. Itincludes iterative design methods to elicit user requirements, generate alternative designs,develop low-fidelity prototypes, and evaluate designs from the perspective of the users. Theculminating course project involves students developing relationships with and designing anengineering innovation that meets the needs of users in the
