provided by somemanufacturing companies. The emerging themes and example responses for each of thesequestions are provided in Appendix B. Discussions This study suggests that the industry-led manufacturing activities can change studentcareer perceptions in regard to the broad field of manufacturing. A majority of the surveystatements, compared pre- to post-, resulted in a statistically significant change in response. Forall three age-groups, only eight total responses were statistically insignificant, for both non-zeroobservations and all observations. Statistical significance in this study indicated a change in thestudent’s perception from the pre- survey, through the event, to the post-survey
theirattitude towards STEM. The responses to the survey were on a scale that measured strongagreement (SA, 5), agreement (A, 4), neutral (N, 3), disagreement (D, 2) and strong disagreement(SD, 1) with a statement. The same survey was administered to participants at the end of the week-long camp. The survey loaded on five dimensions which are (a) Math Importance (9 items), (b)Math Enjoyment (14 items), (c) Science Importance (9 items), (d) Science Enjoyment (15 items),and (e) Math and Science Instruction (18 items). There were several negative questions in thesurvey that were reversed scored. Analysis of the responses was carried out using a repeated-measures (paired samples) two-tailed t-tests with a p < 0.05 to test the null hypothesis (Ho).Ho

While this approach may provide alaboratory experience, the research experience is greatly dependent on the research laboratoryand the research advisor. The significant increase in expected students performingundergraduate honors research also suggests that a group mentoring approach may be required inorder not to require additional time from the research mentors. In an effort to improve theundergraduate research experience, we will be initiating an Engineering Honors ResearchMethods course for the undergraduate Honors students during the Spring 2020 semester as a pre-requisite for

Being Empathetic and Having The Right Mind Frame “A successful educator sees learning through the eyes of the students.”Empathetic teaching focuses on getting feedback about what the student does and does not knowand work backward from that. In this regard, Hattie has defined ten mind frames for educatorsdescribing how effective instructors think about feedback and formative assessment [37] (a sum-mary is presented in Table I). It is important for the educators to train their students on receivingand providing constructive feedback
