In1992, The American Association of University Women (AAUW) published a report, HowSchools Shortchange Girls.17 This report provided evidence that girls were often ignored in theclassroom and neglected in the curriculum. In 1998, a follow-up report was published titled,Gender Gaps: Where Schools Still Fail Our Children.18 Based on an analysis of over 1,000research documents published between 1990 and 1998, Gender Gaps reveals that girls havemade some strides, but gaps still remain in the areas of science and mathematics (AAUW, 1998).Cumulatively, these experiences logically lead to lowered educational and career aspirations inscience

progress in theattainment of learning goals. An ability to self-reflect undergirds one’s ability to be a self-directed learner.Kember et al. [2] emphasized the importance of reflective practices in a professional degreeby stating that the use of reflective practices while dealing with complex problemsdifferentiates “experts” in the profession from “novices.” According to Siewiorek et al. [3],undergraduate engineers learn to work on their problem-solving skills in preparation to workeffectively on real-world problems, and in this process, reflection is extremely important fornovices as reflection causes a shift in the individual thinking from self-centeredness to self-awareness. Having enhanced self-awareness takes students a step closer to being

The literature suggests that the behavior and attitudes of faculty have an impact on theeducational success and even the retention of their students. Although engineering facultymembers are important actors, through their teaching, advising, and designing of curriculum,their professional lives tend to be described at the methodological extremes of either multi-disciplinary, national faculty attitude surveys or participant observation accounts centered onstudents’ lives34, 10.

By mobilizing faculty in seeing students as engineers andengineering people through recognition as respect, students may be better supported in joiningthe community of engineering and seeing themselves as engineers.7 Limitations and Future Work Although this work exploring participants experiences of faculty
