advised section was perhaps due torepetitive brainstorming during the weekly team meetings, while the advised section wasdeprived of this activity. Work by others suggests that repetitive brainstorming improves self-efficacy 8,9 – people’s beliefs in their capacities to produce desired effects through their actions 10.We hypothesize that the construct of self-efficacy is covariate with actual process knowledge,and that process knowledge is improved through brainstorming. The latter may be tested bymeasuring whether knowledge of processes other than engineering design can be covertlyinfluenced by brainstorming, but without overt instruction on that process.These data are consistent with a previous study showing that the mode of instruction

, but were used for overall program evaluation. The three remaining scales included measures of creative self-efficacy, identity, and expectation. Creative self-efficacy refers to the “belief that one has the ability to produce creative outcomes” (p. 1138).18 Creative self-identity refers to the “overall importance that a person places on creativity in general as part of his or her self-definition” (p. 248).19 Creative self-expectation refers to students’ perceived expectations that they need to be creative within the academic setting, in this case the REU. Descriptions of the items included in these scales are given in Table 1. All three instruments used Likert-type scales. The number of anchor points corresponded to the

becompetitive in the entry-level job market with over 78% of respondents selecting these asimportant or very important (Figure 1). In comparison, study abroad experience was onlyselected by 7% of respondents as important or very important. Compared to reported data in theliterature, the value of some type of work experience for recent graduates’ employability issimilar. Stiwne and Jungert (2010), for instance, discussed the importance that engineeringgraduates placed on being able to carry out thesis projects at firms. This was not only for theexperience, but also to develop key skills for the workplace, such as subject-specific knowledge,self-efficacy, and time management skills. A similar study looked at how the experientiallearning that takes place

confident with the subject matter outside theclassroom and were able to apply it in “everyday” situations. Student A recalled tearing a tendonin her foot during the summer after the study abroad class and going to the doctor’s office. Sheelaborated that: “I could visualize how my foot was twisting when I tore the tendon. I made the podiatrist go up to the board to explain how my tendon was formed. It was just nice to talk to the doctor as a student in his practice.”This student was particularly shy and this interaction showed a change in her confidence with thesubject matter. During the study abroad class, this student had trouble taking a leadership rolewhen playing the “expert.” Changes in self efficacy relative to the course

attitudesurveys completed during the same time frame also showed positive outcomes, supporting thenotion of high self-efficacy. Briefly, with respect to the SVM, the majority of students (n=149)agreed with statements concerning value (94%), interest (62%), and cost (78%). According tothe BSS survey, all engagement strategies were favorable with opinions of the pencaststatistically higher than the rest of the interventions (0.9/1, n=132 students) and the flippedclassroom statistically lower than the other interventions (0.69/1, n=132 students). In terms ofachievement, pre-instruction data of the concept quiz yielded a score of 44% (n=82) for Fall2014 and post-instructions scores were 75% for Spring 2014 (n=33) and 76% for Fall 2014(n=49).

online electronic portfolio system (www.innovationportal.org). The electronic portfoliosystem contained step-by-step elements that guided students in the design process: from thedevelopment of an idea to execution of a plan.Summative findings from the curricular material indicated that both freshmen and sophomoresdemonstrated enhanced confidence and performance in key areas (i.e., hypothesis design) andcompetencies (cognitive, intrapersonal, and interpersonal). Interestingly, while freshmendemonstrated improved confidence in the use of bioengineering analytical tools, sophomoresshowed increased self-efficacy in fundamental scientific topics. In the intrapersonal andinterpersonal domains (ethical awareness and teamwork, respectively), little
