factor that has remained constant over    this period of time is students communicating their impression and belief that STEM majors are“hard”. Parents and society express the same impression.A recent New York Times article attributes some of this hardness to tough introductory math andscience classes. The article included the following quote from a student (with 800 Math SATand reading and writing scores in the 700’s) who switched from mechanical engineering topsychology during fall of their sophomore year: “I was trying to memorize equations, and engineering’s all about the application, which they really didn’t teach too well,” he says. “It was just like, Do these practice problems, then you’re on your own”.5Seymour and

answer multiple choice questions posed in class. Thestudents’ responses to these questions are collected either via an electronic device or via flashcards. The instructor can then use the aggregated student responses to adapt instruction toaddress any common misconceptions. This method has been shown to improve student learning[4]–[6], especially if integrated with peer discussion.Though the method has been shown to be a valuable form of formative assessment offeringinstant feedback to the students, the method also has its drawbacks. Because of the nature of thedata collection and aggregation systems, it only works well with multiple choice questions whichmay limit the complexity of the questions asked.

The state subsidizes the cost of education to in-state students byproviding a reduction in tuition of approximately 90% relative to the full cost of tuition to out-of-state students. The in-state tuition is one of the lowest in the country among four year nationalresearch universities, and provides access to engineering for a high number of students who maynot otherwise afford it. Students coming from low-income backgrounds often suffer from anumber of disadvantages when compared to their more affluent peers. The low-income status ofmany students

Guidance for methodsof facilitation can be found outside of traditional academia in programs that are designed to buildhigh performance teams. Rohnke and Butler state that “the leader/facilitator doesn’t provide allthe answers to the group; primarily the participants learn from each other.” 15 The authors go on tocontrast leading versus facilitating by stating “leading the group – helping them to learn – orfacilitating – helping them to learn from each other.” 15Role-based learning also lends itself well into integration with problem based learning.

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.

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

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.
