The majority of respondentsacross all groups favored faculty who were more supportive.[RQ2, RQ3, RQ4] Many students compared themselves to other students who they saw as‘naturally good’ at engineering. Several students talked about their own beliefs about students’innate capabilities, while others stated that they perceived faculty to have this belief, with theimplication that some students were more suited to engineering and computer science thanothers.

they might need academic support. The motivation to attendtutoring can also be centered around completing assignments, undermining its valueas a learning resource. If tutors are not vigilant, there can be low requirements forproblem solving, rendering the resource as little more than a service dedicated tofacilitating homework completion. Under the best circumstances, students are oftenill-equipped to use tutoring as a resource to supplement their learning. Questionslike, “how do I do this?” and statements like, “I don’t know what I’m doing” lead totutors telling the attendee how to complete a problem, not necessarily helping learnto problem solve.
