for Engineering Education, 2015 Engineering Identity Development of Latina and Latino Members of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers Despite the efforts made in at least the last forty years, Latinas and Latinos continue to beunderrepresented in engineering. Research has shown that engineering college students whoidentify as engineers are more likely to persist in engineering than those who do not identify asengineers1,2. One way to study identification with engineering is through a study of engineeringidentity development. However, much of the literature on engineering identity has focused on anaggregated population of engineering students, doing so often leaves the experiences of studentsof color

This knowledgecan benefit students in fields such as Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, and Bio-Engineering. Providing students with a hands-on approach when teaching robotics classesenables students to become aware of how mechatronic design, rapid prototyping, andcomputer control can drastically influence the downstream design and manufacturingprocesses. This is especially helpful for students in the mechanical, electrical, andindustrial concentrations, since they have a high probability of designing parts that willrequire machining processes during their manufacture.

-regulated learning strategies, whereas negativeemotions correlate with external regulation strategies. This study aims to objectify the emotionalexperiences of students in an upper-level engineering course that is considered a bottleneckcourse for students primarily because of its high level of mathematical rigor and abstractconcepts. It is not uncommon for students to repeat this course two or three times beforematriculating to subsequent courses, which ultimately delays their graduation. As a result,students typically delay registration in this course until their senior year. Understanding theemotional state of students throughout the semester may provide insight to designinginstructional interventions that seek to enhance positive emotions

an umbrella term that is generally defined as any instructional method that requiresstudents to actively participate in the learning process activities besides passively listening to theinstructor [1]. As the name suggests, active learning requires students to actually do things (e.g. write,read, discuss, solve) either individually or as a group and reflect on what they do. Active learning can takemany different forms from simply pausing a lecture and asking students to write a summary of what hasbeen covered in the lecture to asking them to collaboratively work on real-world problems and projects.Active learning strategies chosen for this study were based on a previous study conducted by Borrego, etal., [5] on research-based strategies, and

It also revealed that thepredominant use of CIs is in undergraduate education, accounting for 90% of the studiesexamined. However, there is need for studies that examine the use of CIs to examine studentconceptual understanding at graduate level as researchers have shown that students still havemisconceptions even after graduation. For example, Maries and Li [30, 31] emphasize the criticalneed to examine the impact of misconceptions at the graduate level, recognizing thatmisconceptions persist at all educational levels.
