Cascading vertically, undergraduate seniors mentor juniors, juniors mentorsophomores, and sophomores mentor freshmen.

For example, somestudies report that the diversity gap in STEM participation may be attributed more to perceptionsand beliefs than to academic preparation or achievement levels [1-5]. To the extent that suchperceptions and beliefs form an inaccurate (or “negative”) vision of a future engineering career,curricular approaches that aim to form a more “positive” vision may be warranted. Theseapproaches can be pedagogical, such as collaborative and project-based learning [6-8], content-based by aiming (for example) to expose the positive contributions of engineering to society [9-12], or both.

As students are required in a simulation to work through the problems theyface, their thinking must move beyond basic recall and they must use higher-order thinkingskills, such as the application and analysis of information, and evaluation of decisions andchoices made by themselves or others (Wheeler, 2006).
