women’s participation.22 While chemical and materials engineering werefound to have cultures that encompass both masculine and feminine characteristics (which isreflected in comparatively higher percentage women enrollment), the electrical engineeringculture was the most masculine (again, reflected in comparatively low women enrollment).22 Is itpossible that in programs less popular with women, offering increased course choice opportunityin a given program is comparatively more correlated to the gender diversity in that program? Ifso, increasing the flexibility and/or customizability in engineering programs via free electivesand other course choice opportunities might serve as a strategy to attract and keep more womenengineering

This gives them theopportunity to develop their creative design skills and to produce new products that reflect thiscreativity such as: • a motor-driven fishing reel for anglers with the use of one arm • an inexpensive water-filtration system for countries with water challenges • a self-propelled longboard (skateboard) with braking capability • a plant watering system to maintain healthy, unattended house plants • an aluminum can-crushing device • a lighted, flounder-gigging pole designed for night use • an emergency cell phone charger that is shaker-activated • autonomous robots for regional competitions • a 3D puzzle

writing instructors, technical writing courses were often taught by adjuncts andinstructors in English and Engineering departments. Growing enrollments in technical writingcourses were directly related with engineering enrollments—resulting in two important eventsfor TWC: a more clearly defined discipline and disciplinary in-fighting with regard toprogrammatic goals [3]. As new technical writing-related organizations, journals, and academicprograms appeared in the seventies, so too did disagreements about goals and trajectory of thefield, with the older, retiring cohort championing praxis, e.g., [5], and the new cohort valuingwriting as a process for critical reflection, social responsibility, and audience-awareness.Because of the historical

This form of control based on hand raising takes advantage of social dynamics - whensomeone motions with a hand, others know that person would like to speak or to add somethingto the conversation. It is a method which reflects physical-world experiences. These methodsprovide a more obvious indicator of who is speaking as shown in Figure 3.EvaluationFor the study, we recruited 15 participants through flyers and targeted emails on campus.

A survey question asked how much of an impact lunch had on their decision toparticipate in the workshop (none, some, would not have come without lunch). A total of 127surveys were filled out by individuals that knew about the lunch. Of the people, 45 (35.7%) saidthat lunch had some impact or that they would not have come without lunch. Furthermore, of the82 individuals that said lunch had no impact on attendance, eleven surveys had notes that said itwas either a bonus or that it helped. Thus, the self-reported questionnaires reflect over a thirdincrease in attendance due to lunch. Even with this limited number of data

This study also showed that biomechanics-basedactivities could increase interest in considering careers in engineering, regardless of initial interest.Of note, when both boys and girls had little to no interest in engineering, boys were more easilydrawn in by the outreach activities than girls. The challenge with engaging girls in engineeringmay be a reflection of intrinsic differences such as gender stereotypes (Bieg et al., 2015), andpsychological factors (Stoet et al., 2016) between boys and girls that are more pronounced at lowindividual-interest levels. Thus, it may be necessary to tailor interventions (e.g., biomechanics-based activities) that target girls with low interest in engineering

For example, if in one quarter, Newton’s SecondLaw is covered by in house assignment, it may not be the case for the next time around.
