Indeed, early exposure to projectsinvolving engineering problem solving with direct and clear benefits to society and the localcommunity have been shown to be especially beneficial to women and underrepresented minoritystudents [20, 21], and highly useful as retention tools. These projects are taken for a variablenumber of credits (1 to 3), and generally consist of teams of 3–4 students across all threeengineering disciplines, and fit within the existing project advising framework at the engineeringdepartment in one of three

In particular, [8] shows us that male and femaleparticipants, at times, take away differing views about their experience in the activities.Phase 1 ProcessPhase 1 began with a focus group of six computing education researchers and evaluators whotook part in multiple online sessions over several weeks to answer the following two researchquestions: 1. What type of data might be useable and useful for educational researchers and evaluators when measuring the impact of pre-college computing activities? and 2. What type of data might be useable and useful for practitioners who are designing and/or

Introductory courses provide fundamental information andknowledge needed for upper-division courses. This framework continues throughout anacademic course map, forming a linear advancement.

IntroductionWith the advent of new methods and approaches in virtual education, automated systems, andonline learning, there is a need for general-purpose approaches to help automate studenteducation. These new approaches can serve not to replace traditional education, but to augment itthrough automated student assistance, easier classroom operation for instructors, and bettersupport for under-performing students [1].

Clicking on a term in either network highlights thatterm along with its links and term associates in both networks. Dragging any term in eithernetwork moves the same term in the other network. These interactive features allow the studentsto explore the sometimes complex networks in a term-by-term way. Also, there are controlbuttons under the student’s network. (Fig. 1) If
