, providing insight into the best practices from anindustry and/or collegiate perspective. For example, the University of Hartford’s Ward College ofTechnology and New Horizons described the importance of identifying industry-specific needs,developing an appropriate plan, establishing a mutual agreement, and assessing the model in orderto make continuous improvement to the partnership and project 1 . This process created a projectthat could make mutually beneficial progress. In another example, Gannon University’s graduateprogram incorporates the academic program with application-based training of key real-worldindustry problems 2 . In explaining their success, the authors describe communication as the key tosuccess, and an annual review meeting

According to the project’s website, “the ImplicitAssociation Test (IAT) measures attitudes and beliefs that people may be unwilling or unable toreport” (“Project Implicit”). The gender-science one “often reveals a relative link between liberalarts and females and between science and males.” After taking the test, survey participants areasked for demographic information to help inform research.In a 2009 paper published in the ​Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA(PNAS), researchers analyzed this data and found that “women who find it easier to associatemen with science (and women with liberal arts) report less liking for math and science domains,less

assessment by instructorsand teaching assistants. Early career engineers who appeared more effective at making thetransition to work were able to build relationships, had the confidence to ask the right questionsof the right people at the right time, and took initiative to build a network across the companybeyond their immediate work group.An unexpected finding is that there were limited examples of interviewees talking aboutteamwork. Given the importance placed on learning from others, and the fact that early careerengineers are navigating the social structures of knowledge and expertise, perhaps they are notyet experiencing “teamwork” in the same way they did in university. As documented in theengineering education literature, many of the hands-on

Toassess participants’ confidence, we used the Self-Perceived Communication Competence Scale(SPCC) [8]. To assess communication skills, the two authors developed a series of threescenarios that asked for participants’ description for strategizing and communicating theirresearch to different audiences. Participants also indicated familiarity with STEM careers afterthe program and retrospectively before the program to explore changes in understanding. Finally,a series of open-ended questions were developed by the two authors to obtain feedback on theSciComm program. Focus group

II is the ability of aninfrastructure system to exhibit reliability, flexibility, resilience, and adaptability. Although II isuseful for application to any infrastructure system, it is particularly applicable to electricsystems, and it provides a foundation on which to build in considering the future development ofelectric grids.

From interviews with STEM faculty who had received tenure ortheir first promotion, Banerjee and Pawley [5] found that women do not get enough informationabout policies and application requirements. In this “foggy climate,” they must develop theirown “fog lights” of formal and informal resources. While ambiguity is often cited as a problemwithin the assistant-to-associate promotion system, ambiguity seems especially pronounced forpromotion from associate to full [20].

The three basicneeds of self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, relatedness) were assessed inengineering, computer science, and physics faculty using a qualitative research design. Theworkplace experiences that have served to meet or frustrate autonomy and competence needs ofmen and women faculty seem comparable, but relatedness needs reveal an important genderdifference.

We used this theory to create lectures, in-class activities, assignments, rubrics and templates that scaffold the discovery and knowledgetransfer processes involved in using natural designs to inspire engineering solutions.To assess the learning impact of our C-K theory instructional resources, we conducted astatistical comparison of student

The project of liberation is the project of daring to imagine.IntroductionTeaching takes place in a physical space with configured interactions of the instructor with thestudents. The traditional mode of education presupposes the instructor as an authority“depositing” knowledge into the “clean-slates” (students’ minds), who in turn regurgitate thatdeposited (memorized) knowledge in assessments. This is described as the banking concept ofeducation by Freire [1]. This model discourages creative engagement of the student with theworld and encourages uncritical acceptance of the oppressive power structures. This process
