Elementary teachers often lack both self confidence and self efficacy withregard to teaching engineering.5,6 Teachers’ self confidence in a subject is linked to both howthey perceive it and their knowledge of the subject itself.7,8 Teachers at the elementary levelreceive

The former study showed that teachers improved their self-efficacy, beliefsabout students, and learning goals for students while the latter study showed no substantial effecton teachers’ argumentation knowledge, understanding, or practice. Similarly, studies inmathematics have examined how preservice elementary teachers learn to facilitate argumentationdiscussions over time [30] or as they respond to students’ incorrect responses to problem-solvingtasks [31].Regardless of field—science, mathematics, or engineering—this practice is one that is complexand requires sufficient time and learning opportunities in order for teachers to achieve mastery[20, 29, 32

insistence from engineering and engineering ethics thatfailure is a necessary component of a ‘good’ engineering process and embracing failure isparamount to success in engineering [31], [32], [33], [34], engineering course and programdesign rarely integrate this value. Instead, 40% and 50% student failure rates in engineeringare often explained as not meant to be, unready for rigorous education, or poor work ethic[35], [36]. However, Brandi Geisinger and Raj Raman’s work on understanding attrition ratesidentify ”classroom and academic climate,” “grades and conceptual understanding,” and “self-efficacy and self-confidence” as the three leading reasons students report leaving engineeringdisciplines ([36] p.914).

While these three beliefs designations may notalways accurately predict behavior, research has shown these types to contribute the most. Otherresearch suggests that iterative self-reflection and reconciliation of our past behavior can helpdevelop more robust beliefs about our future actions [15].Beliefs occur at both a conscious (espoused) and subconscious (implicit) level which are derivedfrom our socialization [29]. It is difficult to effectively study implicit beliefs, making them a wildcard when comparing an individual’s beliefs to their behaviors.

For example, in a systematic review of 94 studies of smallgroup discussions, researchers found that single-gender groups had more purposeful functioningthan mixed-gender groups [83]. Other studies have found that single-gender pairs of elementarystudents had more verbal interactions, were more task-focused, and were more likely to sharematerials [84].
