incollaborative research settings, especially at the graduate level. Graduate engineering studentsare immediately expected to assimilate into a laboratory group, usually an interdependent team,with varying degrees of guidance by faculty members. The group dynamics and the role of trustas graduate students learn to conduct collaborative research is underexplored, but may haveramifications for the way in which graduate programs are structured or in how graduate studentsare matched with potential research advisors.Other theories and research also seek to understand mechanisms by which experts innovate inprofessional settings, and many of these have been applied to engineering education.

introductory engineering classes where certain students just can’t keep up with the rest of the class. Not everyone is cut out for engineering, not everyone has the natural intelligence, the grit, the academic background necessary for success. Certain students are struggling in this class, especially the students from disadvantaged backgrounds and groups. They ask a lot of questions in office hours, they work slowly, they seem lost in laboratory sessions. If they are struggling so deeply and so early, perhaps they aren’t going to make it. We feel bad for them and would like to help, but aren’t sure how to motivate them or catch them up. Do they need extra office hours? But there’s not time to help

Further, students need to complete two and half credits in science, with twoof those having a laboratory portion8.
