Faculty observations and student and alumnifeedback have indicated that these skills are vital for success in classroom design projects suchas senior design, as well as for careers in industry [2].

Although some strategies exist for helping minority studentssucceed in STEM, the present investigation uncovered detailed information about how Blackmale students in engineering and engineering-related fields develop important academic traitssuch as confidence and resilience. To add to the limited body of literature on Black males inSTEM, interview data from 27 Black male students majoring in engineering or engineering-related fields were analyzed through the lens of Strayhorn’s ‘buoyant believers’ framework.

Likewise, engineering faculty are often frustrated by their students’ apathy toward reallearning. When a machine design student says, “You mean I have to remember Statics?” itbecomes clear the student didn’t see the usefulness of free-body diagrams back in Statics class.When students don’t see a connection between the concepts they learn in Statics and their futureas engineers, they are less motivated to engage and to remember what they learn. There may bemany contributing factors as to why students tend to see Statics as “series of mathematicalmanipulations”1 rather than a way to understand physical systems. Textbook

For example, power imbalances within a capstone engineering teamcould shape individuals’ behaviors in ways that extend beyond their personal beliefs, which maynot be fully captured by the RAA’s focus on individual beliefs and intentions. Similarly,contextual factors may influence behaviors in ways that are not adequately represented by theRAA. In the capstone engineering example, project complexity or time pressures could be suchfactors. To address these concerns, researchers could incorporate qualitative methods andcontextual factor measures, such as

Third, faculty,even those who may buy in, at a conceptual level, to the value of collaborative learning, tend tobe reluctant about devoting class time to such activities since they are concerned about the likelynegative impact on topic coverage. Our approach not only addresses these issues, it also has anumber of other important advantages over in-person collaborative learning.The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we review background theories related to learningdriven by cognitive conflict; we also briefly review a number of approaches in the broader area ofcollaborative learning

learn new skills in areas they are unfamiliar.2.0 Background The pronounced gender disparities in engineering and engineering technology disciplinesgive rise to a challenging dilemma and one that has yet to be solved. Achieving a critical massof women in these fields could pave the way for greater representation in both educationalinstitutions and industry and alleviate critical upcoming labor shortages. This, in turn, mighthelp mitigate or eliminate obstacles linked to stereotypes, stereotype threat, and a sense ofbelonging. Stereotyping is a perception that certain groups of individuals possess lesser academicability, a notion that can significantly impact their engagement in educational pursuits. Thistendency is particularly pronounced
