Whenstudents were probed to relay their understanding of engineers and engineering the most popularanswer is that engineers improve lives, and a combination of engineers invent, design, and createthings. Each of these responses were mentioned eight times in the descriptions provided bystudents, the next most frequent answer was that engineers fix things and build stuff, tallying sixmentions. Consider the following excerpt of one student that displayed a generic understandingof engineering (I=Interviewer, P=Participant). While the student does not provide any falseinformation, the answer given follows the trend of generality and lack of diversification in therole of the engineer:1 I: It was SEW ok alright good now

A “maker” identity has beenassociated with specific attitudes and abilities, such as creativity, the ability to createphysical models, and the embracing of failure, which engineering educators are nowstriving to foster in their students and throughout curricula.1-3 Over the past ten years,makerspaces, or innovation spaces, have been developed

All students completed team contracts and engagedwith their teams effectively to submit assignments. Initial results from graded homeworkproblems indicate that students are confident in their knowledge to complete the problems andin their ability to solve similar problems in the future. Challenges to implementing theseinstructional approaches include timing of class activities, specifically the amount of time thatstudents took to work with the physical models.1.​ IntroductionStatics is one of several sophomore level

The first part of a lesson elicits students’ generative engagement around some provocative task or situation (or, perhaps, by discovering its spontaneous emergence). From there, the teacher’s role is to support that engagement and attend to it — watch and listen to the students’ thinking, form a sense of what they are doing, and in this way identify productive beginnings of scientific thinking.” (p. 55)There are several proposed
