presentations were designed to help students to start visualizing themselvesas engineers or improve their engineering recognition and caring. Fifth, the students were alsoasked to develop cardboard chairs for their final team project. Students work together in teamsto develop the chairs and then present their chair to the class. This project was designed to helpstudents improve their engineering performance/competence, interest, creativity, and designefficacy. Lastly, students were required to complete weekly homework assignments where theypersonally reflect on topics such as their engineering interests, study plan, and any barriers theycan foresee that might prevent them from becoming an engineer. These were designed toimprove their engineering

Results from the Repeated-Measures Analysis of Variance (RM-ANOVA) demonstrated that participants reported higherperceived ability to engage in scientific learning processes (d = .17) and in science learningbehaviors (d = 0.15). Both theoretical and practical implications are discussed.Objective Self-efficacy is the judgement an individual makes regarding their ability to performvarious tasks and this judgement is domain and task specific (Bandura, 1977, 1982). Since theway in which people act, think, and feel, is a direct reflection of their own beliefs in theircapabilities, learners’ beliefs promote both engagement and learning (Linnenbrink & Pintrich,2003), as well as long-term achievement (Parker

The REUs were then exposed to different types of research as well as receive feedback from a different perspective. • Electronic Portfolios (e-portfolios): Students used e-portfolios to document their deliverables, experiences, and research throughout the ten weeks. The REU Program selected the Portfolium platform due to its similarity to other social media sites. Students created ten posts that focused on reflection. Posts included descriptions, teammate tagging, and the skills learned. The intention was for students to develop stronger transferable skills [3

has indeed shifted from broad domains ordomains that are related to entrepreneurial mindset to specific dimensions, such as those found in anypsychometric protocol. Furthermore, this particular sentiment is mimicked by the strict and more moderndefining of the entrepreneurial mindset as being one that “reflects deep cognitive phenomena,” including“particularly deep beliefs and assumptions” (Krueger, 2015). This increased rigor in the definition ofentrepreneurial mindset coupled with an expansion of survey instruments designed to create dimensionsendemic to it is promising, but it is still too early to determine the future of this line of study.In the spirit of sharing our work, we have composed this brief work-in-progress as an addendum to

In their article, Kessel and Linn[1] claim that college admissions officers may be missing talented females if they are relyingheavily on ACT and SAT scores. Their article points out that “females report spending moretime reflecting on similarities among problems, organizing and linking their ideas, and review-ing material” and because of this, they tend to be less able to demonstrate speed and

This was resolved by arranging the camp in two separate weeks to make sure that all twelve participants can take part in both weeks’ activities.(3) The length of the summer camp was an issue for some participants. Personal conversations with the participants revealed that some of them would preferred a week-long camp instead two weeks. It was also reflected in the performance of some of them as they become less attentive at the end of week two.(4) As shown in Appendix A, a session was scheduled for parents to inform them about their children’s career in engineering/technology areas.

Further, many of these modules were implemented insideclassrooms as observed by OU faculty visiting the sites.

However, before diving in, I reflected on my availability and the perceived requirements this project would entail. As important as this project is, it deserves a fair bit of time, energy, and attention. The fact that I am a part of this paper, reveals my decision. This begs the question: If I were to go back, would I still agree to take on this project? The answer to that question is yes.

political identity, social welfare, and perspectives ofdiversity. In reflecting on the personal impact of recent national events and how politicaldiscussions have or have not been integrated into their STEM courses, two themes emerged: 1)political awareness and 2) future-self impact. Findings revealed that first year engineeringstudents recognized the personal and social impacts current national events imposed on theirfriends, family, and society. However, students did not sense the significance of politicaldiscourse concerning the social impact and ethical practice of engineering. Our research showsthat limiting political discourse in the classroom and depoliticizing engineering spacescontributed to students dissociating the relevance of political
