The Millennials value opportunities formentoring and building on their skills.In addition, this generation requires more direct “cut to the chase” communications styleand enjoy participating in major organizational decisions as much as possible [3]. TheMillennial generation grew up in an era of unpredictable changes (extreme technologicaladvances, schoolyard violence, multiculturalism), so they have a need to change andadapt for survival [6].How will an educator translate this generational profile to the classroom and attract thesestudents to engineering and science careers?

This means that finding a way to break down wary students’preconceived ideas about what these STEM-based courses will entail and getting them intriguedand excited about these courses is critical in establishing a successful STEM-based strategy in aschool. This paper discusses how student feedback was used to promote and grow anengineering program at the high school level.Tolles Career and Technical Center partnered with Jonathan Alder School District to create twoSTEM-based pathways that could feed into the career center in the district: (1) Engineering and(2) Information Technology.

Although generative AI technology has been around for over a decade, one could eventrace relevant research back to the 1960s [2], it was the release of ChatGPT, an AI-poweredlanguage model developed by OpenAI, that brought this innovative technology into the limelightand allowed general population to access it, disrupting not only the technology sector (e.g., IT),but more recently, the academic world in terms of content generation from both the students andfaculty perspectives. This WIP paper will not dive deep into the technicality of generative AI technology- thatis out of the scope of this study; but instead, it will focus on the experimental application ofChatGPT in the academic setting, to be more

Our project leverages a course structure called‘engineering clinics’, which are modified versions of capstone design experiences. Within clinics,third and fourth-year students engage in team-based projects with faculty or industry mentors. Theten students in our clinic were split into three teams and tasked with 1) surveying existing softrobotics designs and applications, 2) creating a soft robot prototype, and 3) designing a learningactivity around their prototype.

unwaveringsupport.Introduction and BackgroundFirst-generation college students face many challenges compared to their continuing-generationpeers when pursuing an undergraduate engineering education [1]. First-generation students oftenface additional barriers to success in engineering, like inadequate academic preparation [2], [3], alack of family support [4], and difficulty transitioning to postsecondary education [5], which canlead them to struggle academically [6]. First-generation students must overcome these uniquechallenges in addition to the challenges that are common in the broader population. Thetransition from high school to college not only represents a shift in academic rigor but also asignificant change in the learning environment and culture. In

In terms of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors,studies have also found that first-generation students are 6% less likely to complete a degree inthese fields compared to their continuing-generation peers [2]. Research focusing on theengagement of first-generation college students in engineering is a topic that has not been widelyexplored up to this point. Because of the present battles that first-generation students face, moreresearch on their engagement is essential to aid them in achieving their educational goals.This work-in-progress (WIP) research utilizes the National Survey of Student Engagement(NSSE) as the main data collection instrument [3].

Indeed, students’ implicit career self-concepts changed by an average of 0.1 ± 0.04(p=0.009 two-sided). In contrast, explicit career self-concept remained unchanged (0.03 ± 0.03,p=0.353). To put this on a more intuitive scale, the above change of 0.1 in the implicit measureis comparable to a change of 1 on the explicitly declared interest in engineering or clinical work.First-generation status
