These constructs ofidentity are developed by “[students’] continued perceptions of engineering-related courses,motivational beliefs, choices and effort, and academic outcomes” [22, pp. 1342].The results of this work show that a student’s level of development of their engineering identitywas a significant predictor of whether students intended to persist into an engineering career.Jones et al. offers the example of a student who feels recognized in their engineering programbut does not

Fundamental to this paperis the belief that society at large will benefit from gender balance in engineering education.One practical problem exists. Simply put, we need to improve the rate at which girls select andsuccessfully complete certain prerequisite courses in high school (e.g., physics and math). Theseare gateways to post-secondary engineering programs. Our paper responds to the problem bylooking at why teenage girls with an interest in and aptitude for science, technology, engineering,and math (STEM) opt out of engineering pathways.
