the challenging time of the pandemic and/or the program being held entirelyvirtually, or whether we would have experienced the same faltering engagement if this programwere running in a typical in-person, non-pandemic academic setting.An additional challenge we are facing is a lack of diversity in our mentorship pool, across gender(just two of the mentors in the ISMP TEAM group are women) and engineering discipline, as wellas an underrepresentation of black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) program participants.This lack of diversity is similarly reflected in the SMSE advisory board and alumni pools fromwhich the program mentors were selected, and is a critical challenge that the SMSE is working toaddress.

, and students are given specifications to which they must adhere while devising asolution. This method requires students to apply theoretical knowledge obtained throughcoursework and lectures to solve a given problem as specified by the instructor. In some cases,the instructor may provide a model design solution that the students can reference as they devisetheir own answer to the provided prompt [5]. Professors act as facilitators of this process,guiding students to resources where appropriate and providing students with the tools necessaryto shape their design approach.This model progresses through three main stages: the development of a prototype, testing andredesign, and then reflection on the task, culminating in the creation of a report

The third-semester reflectionpaper assignment had 12 prompts which asked students to discuss their reasons for applying,their expectations for the program, and their perceived role in the program. The fourth-semesterreflection paper was more open-ended and asked students to reflect on their overall experience inthe Endeavour Program and also to describe how they felt that the pandemic had impacted theircollege experience. The reflection papers had no page limit but had a minimum lengthrequirement of two pages.Data AnalysisDescriptive

examining and creating a comprehensive roadmap for includinginnovative ideas and best practices in engineering curriculum enhancements.The opportunity for this workshop was created by a confluence of needs, resources, and interdisciplinaryinterests. Integrating previous experiences with service learning and social innovation learningopportunities, our interests matched NSF IUSE’s exploration and development (E&D) implementationframework. The workshop, funded by NSF, implemented and reflected the steps of design thinking asincreasing the engagement of students is a classic human-centered opportunity. This opportunity prioritizesthe engagement of the targeted stakeholders, rather than experts who are often at a distance from theproblems they seek

students in engineering education programs have typically been trained through ABET-accredited engineering programs. Despite ABET’s communication requirement, engineeringundergraduate students have limited opportunities to learn to write in their discipline [7]. Often,explicit writing instruction is limited to two courses: one in first-year writing, and one thatfocuses on engineering writing. The other writing engineering students do is integrated implicitlyin design and laboratory coursework. In these contexts, writing practices are often renderedinvisible as students are asked to fill forms, draw sketches, and incorporate appropriate equationsinto reports rather than write essays or reflections [6]. Instructors do not emphasize writingprocesses

In addition, our team reviewed responses froman earlier study phase in which participants identified types of engineering skills they felt wereimportant in their work to capture those practices not on our original list [34]. Our team thensought feedback on the clarity of items through an informal focus group of undergraduate andgraduate engineering students in one of the authors’ labs.

Students in a senior design sequence were surveyedduring each semester of the course about their perceptions of senior design and the skills andprevious courses that were most relevant to design. The study was conducted within a large,public, MSI over the course of five semesters of the Mechanical Engineering Senior designsequence. Relationships between particular course groups and the skills students perceived asimportant for design were found. The results demonstrate that students perceived EngineeringCore Courses, Engineering Design Courses, and Engineering Track Core Courses as important inpreparing them for

Therefore, this paper seeks to answer the following research question: Whateducational supports do engineering faculty at HSIs propose to embed in their curricula toincrease their students’ intrinsic motivation?To answer this question, thirty-six engineering educators from thirteen two- and four-year HSIsfrom across the continental United States were introduced to the SDT and approaches forsupporting students’ intrinsic motivation during a multi-institutional faculty developmentworkshop series. Participants were asked to reflect on and prototype learning experiences thatwould promote intrinsic motivation and fulfill students’ needs for competence, relatedness, andautonomy to learn engineering [1].

However, the expected impact ontheir commitment to and awareness of equality was not as expected. Reflections made within thecourse assignment were relevant when taking an informed stand. A single course moduleintervention indicated that students improved sensitivity to sustainable development goals, but itwas insufficient. The authors recognized the importance of including contextual problems withsocial and environmental considerations in future course modules, especially at the beginning ofthe course.

From the pre-courseand post-course paired T-test, there was a significant increase in the GPI scores in theKnowledge, Social Interactions and Identity dimensions. This might mean that the GlobalEngineering course had an influence on students’ awareness of cultures on our global society andone’s own identity and engagement with a diverse group of people. The Knowledge dimensiononce again showed the largest growth, which may reflect the alignment of the learning objectivesof the Global Engineering Course with the knowledge dimension of the GPI scale.

there appears to be a small positive gaintowards graduation moving the line above average readiness. Additional connection wasobserved when RQ1b was explored. As Table 3 reflects, there appears to be a strong correlation(ρ = 0.913, p = 0.087) between the mean readiness response and the number of professionalexperiences a student has. A t-test was used to compare overall (mean) readiness of the students who had no professional experiences to the group of students who had one or more experiences(p = 0.236, t = 1.189, df = 280).RQ1c explored “Does the self-reported level of the practice readiness differ across variousprofessional experiences?

programsIntroductionUniversities across North America have adopted global education as part of their educationalmandate [1]. This mandate corresponds to the emerging trend for a globalized workforce. In theUnited States (U.S.) specifically, study abroad has become more popular due to the emphasisplaced on global citizenry by institutions and employers [2]. This demand has more than doubledstudents’ participation in study abroad programs over the past decades [3]. Educational theoristKolb [4] posits that people learn effectively by immersing themselves in environments thatenable them to observe and reflect on their behaviors. Students who participate in internationalprograms acquire knowledge, skills, and beliefs useful in working with people in cross-culturalsettings [5

Attracting more women into the field has notyet been achieved, and their participation is still judged as insufficient by several authors [1].This fact is reflected initially in the low number of women enrolled in careers in the engineeringarea. If we specifically analyze the construction sector, it is not effective to push more women toenter these careers since the percentage of women employed in construction is proportional toincome.

Teachers’ beliefs can then affect the effectiveness of teachers’ implementation ofinterdisciplinary curricula and the opportunities that students have to engage in certaininterdisciplinary practices (Askew et al., 1997). In classroom practice, teachers draw upon their own privately-held PCK&S to make bothplanned and in-the-moment instructional moves.
