The program allowed students to concentrate on E/CS concepts andpractically apply those ideas in and out of the classroom.Unlike the IT-LSCD model, ECSE III did not assume hands-on training led to knowledgeregardless of the starting point. Rather, the need for understanding analytical concepts andaforementioned strategies mattered more in E/CS education. As such, the infusion of constructsinto a quasi-bridge system was more complex. Besides classroom and field instruction, the ECSEIII strategy used

experience as a sign of not knowing anything, without acknowledging themultiple factors that constrain marginalized students from doing internships [2]. B. Belongingness, race, and ethnicityThe relationship between race and feelings of belonging within engineering classrooms is moreinconclusive than the research on belongingness and gender. Some quantitative, survey-basedstudies report findings that display no difference in sense of belonging among different racialgroups [8,12]. Even though Benson et al. [12] do not quantitatively identify a general lack ofbelonging in engineering among black students, with this study focusing on civil engineering, oneinterview with a black female student described how she experienced feeling as though shecouldn’t

Page 26.555.7racial/gender stereotypes and Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) 6,7,8. SCCT, an offshoot ofAlbert Bandura’s social cognitive theory, attempts to address issues of culture, gender, geneticendowment, social context, and unexpected life events that may interact with and supersede theeffects of career-related choices. SCCT focuses on the connection of self-efficacy, outcomeexpectations, and personal goals that influence an individual’s career choice. SCCT proposes thatcareer choice is influenced by the beliefs the individual develops and refines from four majorsources: (a) personal performance accomplishments, (b) vicarious learning, (c) social persuasion,and (d) physiological states and reactions. How these aspects work together
