For example, Sara described an engineer with the following words: I feel like she would try any material she thinks would work. She would also test it out a lot. She would write a lot of notes, so when other people look at her experiments or when she tries to show it to someone, she could show she did trial and error. And be like “This is why this is the best one I did, this is why I think it’s a better material to use.”Sara changed her perception of engineering as being male-oriented to a field were females arealso active participants. Her perception of engineering included activities where women

In a signal processing course, the instructor noted that ittook a few weeks for the students to adapt to the new environment, engage with their peers, orask for assistance5.

One of the authors participated inthe VCP and found it to be useful, but more as an introduction to research-based instructionalpractices, than a comprehensive resource to walk a practitioner through implementation andevaluation of an innovation. The main issue again was the general context in which mostexamples of innovative teaching practices were presented.

Active learning is most generally defined as any instructional method of engagingstudents for the entire duration of the teaching contact time6. In addition to traditional homeworkand examination, active learning allows students to participate in collaborative activities thatpositively influence student attitudes and study habits for course material6.

Davisgoes on to explain that students of engineering need more than textbooks from which they cangather facts. They need capable teachers and hands-on learning experiences. To learn thediscipline, Davis argues, students “must solve problems, participate in discussions, work in labs,write reports, and otherwise practice the discipline, under the supervision of those who are adeptat it.” Finally, he states that as judgment is developed, learning engineering theories and conceptsbecomes easier, eventually enabling self-directed learning.These drivers encourage educators to rely

Each student writes a 700 word essay about the assigned topic and a 300 word essay about how the sophomore class can realistically contribute to solving the problem. Both essays require citations: at least five citations for the 700 word essay and at least one citation for the 300 word essay. Each group gives a five minute presentation, and then the entire class discusses the problem.

, 2].In engineering education research, belongingness is often investigated through the experiences ofwomen in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors and careers [6, 7].Tonso found that “Women belonged only in the social arenas of Greek societies, not asengineers” [8, p. 365]. Women were excluded from the social activities in engineering availableto their male peers and thus had decreased perceptions of belonging. In a survey of 288undergraduate engineering students, Cech and colleagues [9] found that students, especiallywomen, who developed confidence in their fit with the engineering profession were more likelyto persist in engineering. Other studies have also shown that creating an alignment betweenwomen’s

Instead,the goal of their current studying and test taking strategies is to “maximize partial credit.” Thesestrategies work as follows. 1. Memorize problems from the homework, in-class examples, or previous exams. 2. Match each problem on the exam to one of the memorized problems that most closely resembles it. 3. Write down the memorized solution, making adjustments along the way so that the solution looks more relevant
