The coursewas designed to introduce students to the benefits and diversity of STEM research, requiring eachstudent to identify a potential research mentor and research topic. The development andimplementation of the course were previously reported [24]. For Fall 2019, we planned to repeatthe pilot course, but it was canceled due to low enrollment. This happened because departmentspreferred to handle research preparation at the departmental level rather than in an interdisciplinarycourse.

This is in part due totheir coursework. In their first semester, they are making the transition from high school to acollege or a university where the rigor of the coursework is above and beyond anything thatmany students have experienced in the past. Most often, first-year engineering students areexpected to be calculus ready and take a calculus course in their very first semester. They alsotake a laboratory science course, either chemistry or calculus based-physics, but sometimes
attribute of self-efficacy is that it is context-specific: one can have different levelsof self-efficacy for different contexts [11]. For example, one may have a high degree of self-efficacy in following a scripted laboratory activity, but a low degree for problem-solving a realworld engineering challenge. As a consequence, the instruments and scales needed to measureself-efficacy also vary greatly based on the specific context of the activity. Hence, there havebeen different scales developed for self-efficacy in different areas, such as mathematics andchemistry [12] - [15].Identity is generally focused on the feelings, thoughts, and beliefs one has of oneself [16], whichcontribute to self-confidence and, therefore, self-efficacy.

tools do not provide enough feedback to the user. Ifthere are fundamental errors related to sketching linkages or to providing specifications, those arenot shared with the user. The users can extract the final results, kinematics or forces, but there isno information about the equations used in the backend. The availability of equations, for instance,will greatly help their usage in course work. If more information is available, students can improvetheir understanding of the step-by-step process taught in lectures or illustrated in technical books.During homework and laboratory activities, a student must spend a lot of time trying to manuallyverify the correctness of their work.

Likewise, white students often overlook Black andBrown women when using laboratory equipment or delineating tasks having to do with figuringmathematics for the homework assignment [13].Marginalizing behaviors begin with team formation, where self-selection practices result in lessgender and racially diverse teams [14]. Team formation by self-selection is still pervasive despiteoverwhelming evidence of the problematic outcomes [14]. In cases where team formation iscontrolled by instructors, race, gender, and other salient characteristics that may serve as markersof difference within teams should be carefully considered in the execution of team-basedlearning.
