It is suggested to promoteactivities that can nurture students' self-efficacy beliefs, so that they can better take fulladvantage of the course, with a focus on academic success.Keywords: Self-efficacy, school performance, higher education.Introduction The concept of self-efficacy was first defined by Bandura [1] and was conceived as thebeliefs that an individual has about his or her own ability to organize and perform a certainaction [2]. These beliefs influence how people feel, think, are motivated, and behave. Morespecifically, there is a proposal to use the term self-efficacy in higher education

in the study of factors that influenceindividuals' interest in pursuing entrepreneurship [34], [35]. We focus on entrepreneurial self-concept as an umbrella term that encompasses threeclosely related, malleable psychological states that can increase entrepreneurial proclivity: (a)Intrinsic entrepreneurial motivation, (b) Entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and (c) Entrepreneurialidentity aspiration. Intrinsic entrepreneurial motivation refers to the degree to which individualssee themselves enjoying being an entrepreneur e.g., [36], [37]. Individuals with higher intrinsicentrepreneurial motivation feel excited not merely by the external economic benefits of being anentrepreneur, but also by the possibility that they will derive personal

The open-ended aspect became a challenge of having too manyoptions and wanting to be told which option they should select. The next iteration of thiscurriculum will need to consider this unease with ambiguous, open-ended assignments.[1] B.

participants (students) cited for a lower self-ratedcreativity score (i.e. “not creative”) related either to the participants’ seeming inferiority of theirideas, or themselves. Regarding ideas, participants felt their ideas were (a) toosimple/straightforward, (b) were previously used by others, (c) were previously implemented bythem, or (d) were not “original”. They also stated that external influences impacted the creativityof their ideas, namely (e) safety/risk, and (f) economic/practical factors. Regarding themselves asbeing inferior (i.e. “not creative”), participants cited (a) not being able to come up with new ideason their own, (b) not being able to come up with multiple ideas. Among students, the common reasons students stated as the
course and used that data to analyze the relationship between attendance andperformance. In performing this study, he found a strong correlation between attendance ratesand course performance. A student who attended 25% of his required lectures earned a C- in thecourse, while a student who attended all the lectures earned a B+ [6, p. 171]. This indicates thatbeing absent from class is a meaningful disincentive to student performance. In addition to attendance, the way in which graded events are evaluated can also serve asa disincentive to student performance. In today’s digital environment, where immediate feedbackis expected in most disciplines, academia naturally seeks to provide immediate feedback throughthe automatic grading of exams

(a) (b)Figure 2 shows the two cases of credibility deficit and excess.The rectangle that encompasses the scale in Figure 1 represents the credibility economy, which ishow credibility is distributed among individuals [38], often unevenly based on structural socialcontexts. Within the context of engineering, identity stereotypes surrounding race, gender,sexuality, socioeconomic status, disability, neurodivergence, etc. lead to prejudices that revealthemselves in the credibility economy.

education research and engineering education research. Her work involves designing and researching contexts for learning (for students, educators, and faculty) within higher education. Her research draws from perspectives in anthropology, cultural psychology, and the learning sciences to focus on the role of culture and ideology in science learning and educational change. Her research interests include how to: (a) disrupt problematic cultural narratives in STEM (e.g. brilliance narratives, meritocracy, and individualistic competition); (b) cultivate equity-minded approaches in ed- ucational spheres, where educators take responsibility for racialized inequities in student success; and (c) cultivate more ethical future
andunderrepresented minorities completing engineering degrees could fill the need for engineers inthis country.It is essential to avoid considering any group as a uniform monolith. There is intersectionalitybetween gender and race, as well as other factors in a person’s experience. Other considerationsinclude ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, disabilities, and the first-generation status of students.We seek out patterns and commonalities without erasing uniqueness [7].B.

If they are to be a part of the solution, community colleges will need to address thesocial and institutional gender barriers that are in place, including success factors

However, minority undergraduates include at least 50% of the totalenrollment of undergraduate students [36]. Additionally, Campus A and B held CarnegieClassification as research universities with very high research activity (R1), and Campus C wasclassified as a research university with high research activity (R2).Case Site SelectionWe

Centrifugal blower with settling chamber, contraction and pipe section.The contraction was 3D printed together with the four supports for the horizontal pipe as shown in Figure3. The pipe was made of clear polycarbonate tubing for durability and transparency. The innerdiameter of the pipe was D = 44.45 mm and the total length was 8 ft. The end of the straight pipesection was connected to the elbow
