part of their research experiences. From thislist of potential codes, codes were identified based on what was found in Phase II interviewtranscripts. These include activities such as constructing knowledge that is new to participant ornew to field, collaboration, testing ideas, and dissemination. Some codes reflect students’attitudes and beliefs, such as career goals or plans; challenges they faced when doing research;and aspects of mentoring or supervision. Other codes reflect aspects of students’ experiences,such as recognition, failure, gaining skills, or feeling a sense of gratification. These codes will beparticularly important for Phase III of this project, in which we will identify ways to transfer ourfindings to instructional practice

To support students in developing and engaging in self-directedlearning, students regularly engage in explicit metacognitive focused reflection activities. Forinstance, students may complete a metacognitive memo to reflect on the strategies used for aproblem solving activity. The overall process of engaging in their self-directed learning includesorganizing and documenting their learning as it happens, reflecting on the learning and learningprocesses on a frequent basis, making qualitative judgments on the quality of the learning, andthen making regulative changes to their learning strategies based on their judgments.MethodsParticipants and Procedure.

Our preliminary data indicates that 75% of freshmen, 50% ofsophomores, and 35% of juniors do not routinely adopt effective study strategies. Our NSF-funded research project focuses on freshman students enrolled in Engineering 100, Introductionto Engineering, which is part of the innovative First-year “Engineering Experience” program.Along with improving instruments to assess metacognitive thinking, we are developingminimally-intrusive interventions including a workshop, handouts, and reflective writingdesigned to improve students’ metacognitive awareness (their

Throughout all of these activities,students are given ownership of their experiences through choices in the classes, projects, andactivities that lead to the learning objectives of the program. Additionally, the students areencouraged to reflect regularly on their experiences, becoming more self-aware and better able tocontribute to their society.

Academic Reflections give Scholars an opportunity to reflect on theirmost recent semester as they are about to enter a new semester and to analyze what went well,what went less well, and what they might do differently going forward. It also gives moreadvanced students in the cohort a chance to mentor younger students in the same degreeprogram, which both helps younger Scholars succeed academically and strengthens the socialbonds of the cohort. Scholars consistently rate these opportunities to get to know and learn fromone another as among their favorite aspects of CLEAR Scholars. Month

That is, they emphasize to students (andfaculty) that words, grammar and organization have an impact on meaning. Effective writing isconnected to the accuracy and precision that are hallmarks of engineering, and writing choicesare connected to their impact on reader comprehension. The approach thus connects writing withthe practice of engineering, rather than describing writing in terms of stylistic choices andconventions that sound arbitrary to students.4) The materials use a direct, analytical approach for teaching writing

Results from that summer workshop indicate a range of approaches fornew engineering pathways for pre-service teacher preparation will be required to reflect theparticular culture of the universities. Potential approaches identified include:• The use of a minor in STEM education to complement an existing engineering degree, this reflects additions to existing undergraduate engineering degrees• Post-Baccalaureate degree programs –this minimizes impact to undergraduate engineering degrees• Working with educational technology programs –they tend to have greater flexibility

Thisshortage is due in-part to academic preparation disparities, which appear early in the elementaryschool years and continue into the 8th grade [1]; national test scores suggest that many U.S.students finish the middle grades underprepared in STEM subjects [1-5]. The National Assessmentof Educational Progress finds roughly 75% of U.S. 8th graders are not proficient in math at theend of 8th grade [2].

This model depicts an idealized, cyclical relationship between research andpractice: a scenario in which practical issues drive research questions and research insightsinfluence what happens in practice. Unfortunately, this is rarely what happens in reality—mostof what happens in practice is not informed by research, nor is it properly assessed for accuracyof meeting objectives [3].

However, I do believe that having some experience in the work force has given me perspective on what I'm learning as well as having professionalism in emails and speaking with my professor. I also think that after working for a year, I have a better understanding in working with other people in a group setting.” DP2: “More comfortable asking questions; improved leadership

Further, these positive effects are projected to be strongest for underrepresented minority (URM), women, and first-generation students. The project period is March 1, 2017 to February 29, 2020.  Regarding social cognitive biases, ISE-2 focused on two major components. Implicit bias consists of attitudes, beliefs, and stereotypes that we are not aware that we hold and, in turn, influence our actions in an unconscious and unaware manner. Implicit biases often reflect broader stereotypes and cultural narratives about groups and therefore behavior based in implicit biases seems correct

Studies show that student learning improves when they are exposed tothe ideas of others, when they respond to the questions and critique of peers, when they formmore substantial justifications for their views, and when they evaluate competing ideas throughargumentation [24, 25]. Following the gallery walk student teams are given time to reflect oncritical feedback and revise their own work. Effective reflection includes keeping a record ofchanges made and justification of those changes. During stage five, prototypes of the bestdesigns – as determined through matrix scoringand argumentation in the previous stages – arebuilt and tested (Fig. 3).
