Instead, we ask for their expected score for thiscourse at mid and end of the term and match this perceived performance with their otherresponses. The data collection methodology has been approved by the Research Ethics Board(REB) at the University of Toronto.The first survey has a total of N = 83 responses, where 47 are industrial engineering students, 23are mechanical engineering students, and there are also 12 materials science engineering studentsand 1 chemical engineering student included in the responses.

Findings disproved this hypothesis. This interesting result shows the growinggap between first- and continuing-generation students. Furthermore, this result opens the door formore research in this area.

Over the following two years, I continued working as an instructor,teaching mechanical engineering core and elective classes, including thermodynamics, fluidmechanics, heat transfer, introduction of material mechanics, and cryo-bioengineering. To date, Ihave taught 10 courses to about 400 students across three different institutions.

conceptualize engineeringeducation as a site of engineering identity formation in which students learn not only engineeringcontent, but also the valued norms, behaviors, and language associated with the engineeringprofession [9]. Grading serves as a feedback mechanism in which individuals who belong toengineering or identify as engineers (i.e., engineering faculty) communicate to students theirlevel of belonging or development as an engineer in the form of course grades. To furtherexplore this relationship, we ask the following research questions: (1) How do undergraduatestudents’ interpretations of course performance influence the formation of their professionalidentities? and (2) How do undergraduate students’ interpretations of course performance
