Case studies present information and ideas in a specific anddetailed manner which can “be far more appropriate media for learning than the more abstractand decontextualized lists of propositions or expositions of facts, concepts, and principles”(p.24)34. Case study teaching methods engage students in higher levels of understanding--analysis, synthesis, and application-- rather than focusing only on knowledge transfer35. Casestudies are

Extensionof this concept to programs to increase technology transfer and commercialization has occurredas discussed in the ‘existing programs striving to correct gender disparities’ section.Attributes of those who engage in technology transferIrrespective of gender differences, technology transfer is an activity within which few academicresearchers engage. Hence, there is much to be learned from literature studying attributes forthose who do engage in some form of technology transfer from patenting to consulting to fullcommercialization.

analysis of narratives. Our findings suggest that engineering students often avoiddiscussing their emotional needs. When they do, they are more likely to seek out chosenfamilies, where they feel greater authenticity and less judgment given the lack of powerdynamics. Positive relationships within traditional families, supplemented by chosenfamilies, contribute to stronger emotional well-being and support students' success asengineers. These results, and others, are discussed further.IntroductionA sense of belonging strongly affect factors such as emotional well-being, motivation, andacademic success of a person [1]. In higher education, especially in more difficult fieldssuch as engineering and computing, a strong sense of belonging to one’s field
