This percentage is a slight 0.8% increase from 2010, whenthe percentage of women with bachelor degrees in engineering was 18.4% 3.An area of research that has received attention over the years to help contribute to ourunderstanding of why we lose women in engineering is identity. Identity is thought to be a set ofmeanings that are applied to the self in different social roles or situations that serve as adefining reference of one’s self 4.

Through exploratory and confirmatory factoranalyses of data from 3,844 introductory physics students, they proposed a revised 15-item CLASS instrumentwith three distinct factors: (1) Personal Application, measuring how students relate physics to real-worldcontexts; (2) Problem Solving and Learning, assessing attitudes toward problem-solving approaches in physics;and (3) Effort and Sense Making, capturing students' dedication to understanding physics concepts. They arguedthat the revised model showed improved internal consistency and structural fit, though further work

understanding of engineering and technology –sometimes referred to as engineering and technological literacy [28]–[30]. Connecting to above,popular media, including videogames, may be one means to support greater engineering andtechnological literacy. There are many ways technological literacy has been defined [3], [29]–[31]. For example, the International Technology and Engineering Education Association (ITEEA)identified five aspects of technological literacy [29]: • Understanding the Nature of Technology, • Understanding of Technology and Society, • Understanding of Design, • Abilities for a Technological World, and • Understanding of the Designed World.Additionally, the National Academies of Engineering [30] released a report

The experiences incorporate open endeddesign problems as well as thoughtfully constructed laboratory experiences. Flexibility has beenadded by allowing students to select three to four courses from pre-approved math and sciencecourses, by opening up the timing of these courses as well as general educational requirementswithin the four year curriculum, by doubling the number of mechanical engineering technicalelectives available, and by allowing students to take technical electives from any of our threeengineering programs (Mechanical, Electrical, and Computer

For instance, metacognition—thinking aboutthinking—is an important aspect of mindset that promotes deeper and more transferable learning[1]. A review of teaching approaches found that metacognitive approaches are very effective,second only to classroom management techniques [2]. Another metaanalysis found thatmetacognitive strategies have a high effect size, relative to other teaching interventions (ranked46 out of 195 factors) [3].There are specific approaches to promote student metacognition.

However, we do not have enough knowledge about how engineering students performtheir writing practices during lower-division education.In engineering education, multiple efforts have been made to analyze or characterize engineeringstudents’ writing. Conrad and her team published multiple articles [1, 2, 3, 4] to investigate thecharacteristics of effective writing in civil engineering practice. They analyzed the organization,sentence structure, and grammatical errors of the technical memos written by students in civilengineering classes and compared them to the same genre written by civil engineeringpractitioners

IntroductionCS1 courses are difficult and commonly have high rates of Ds, Fs, and withdrawals [1], [2], [3],[4], [5], [6]. One contributing factor is the set of technical challenges in the first several weeks,including nuances of commercial languages like Python, Java, and C++ [7].

currently a senior-year Engineering Physics student at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Though I’ve enjoyed the technical work I’ve done, and devote myself now to my senior design project, I feel that education research has much to offer me, and that I have much to offer it. I think the combination of science or engineering with education provides an opportunity for me to apply my scientific curiosity towards understanding and helping people, a better opportunity than I could have predicted before doing this research.

Both courses take place over a 14-week semester (Fall 2012-2015). In both courses, studentscomplete four lab exercises. Each lab explores concepts in statics, mechanics of materials, andorthopaedic biomechanics.

The comparison shows there are some areas where criteria overlap with capabilities, but alsoseveral areas where the overlap is low. The capabilities that aligned most with ABET criteria overlapwith engineering epistemologies and a view of students as the ‘product’ of engineering education.IntroductionMost engineering programs in the United States, and many globally, are accredited by the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
