It’s just that you thinkbecause you learned it outside of school, during your everyday life, that it doesn’t connect or itdoesn’t have as much value.] Through the preliminary analysis, several themes emerged fromthese case studies about the ways the families came to understand engineering through theprogram and how they connected this understanding to their own interests, beliefs, and values:(a) everyday problem solving, (b) family relationship building, (c) child skill development, and(d) pathways to equity. These themes highlight the broad ways that families interpretedengineering, the unique ways they
learn about themselves as bothindividual learners and student leaders. The second module focuses on communication withdiverse groups, especially adult learners and military students. Also, peer leaders learn aboutbuilding effective peer relationships and community through empathy. The third module lets thepeer leaders put into practice their leadership and communication skills by demonstrating how toengage students in an online environment and how to provide effective feedback on anassignment using an active learning technique [10].Peer leaders were recruited from the undergraduate student population who have recently andsuccessfully completed the specific engineering course with either an A or B average. In additionto looking at student grades
