-educated women have increased their share ofthe overall workforce”1. The gender gap in STEM employment is not an anomaly; it reflects thedisparity in the relative numbers of men and women pursuing STEM education, of which the K-12 years, particularly high school, are this paper’s focus.Female high-school students are more likely to aspire to attend college than are their malecounterparts, and young women enroll in college, persist, and graduate from it at higher rates aswell2. So why does this STEM-specific gap exist? This paper employs the tools of “genderanalysis” to address this question.Gender analysis provides a framework for thorough analysis of the differences between women’sand men’s “gender roles, activities, needs, and opportunities in a

They also aimed to make the engineeringattitudes section a more comprehensive measure by including items relevant to engineeringcareers requiring a Bachelor’s degree as well as those not requiring a Bachelor’s degree, liketechnologists. The team developed new questions to include words like “design,” “create,” and“imagine” as well as words like “build” and “fix.” They renamed the engineering section“Engineering and Technology” to reflect the new focus on the work of not only engineers butalso of technologists and other skilled

entireclass, we award every participant of each survey with 0.1% extra credit on the 100%scale for the course. The maximal number of points that a student can earn viaparticipation in surveys was 1.6% in the Fall 2012; for comparison, the reward for earlysubmission of homework was ~3-fold higher. We believe that extra credit forparticipation is justified, because thoughtful feedback requires reflection on learning andteaching, which in turn stimulates meta-communication and comprehension of the coursematerial. The average amount of extra credit for participation in surveys earned bystudents in the Fall 2012 was 0.86%, while the width of each letter grade bin was 4%(straight scale, no “curve”); thus extra credit points only slightly influenced the

By providing students with a solid foundation inunderstanding the applicability, key characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages ofarchitectural styles, educators can provide learners with valuable starting points for their owndesign activities as well as build expertise in identifying critical design trade-offs.The instruction of architectural styles, however, remains challenging, primarily due to afundamental disconnect between the dynamic nature of the software compositions thatarchitectural styles model and the static artifacts most commonly used

While this was a pleasing observation, it did require us toreconsider the depth of some material, and perhaps consider some different techniques in thefuture, as the interest is continuing to expand. We are strongly considering offering two variantsof the course: one course would be the existing data mining course as an elective for thecomputer science major, with a prerequisite of taking a course on data

. In the K-12 setting, engineering can help students learn to use informed judgment to make decisions, which can lead to informed citizenry. Students must be empowered to believe they can seek out and troubleshoot solutions to problems and develop new knowledge on their own. Engineering requires students to be independent, reflective, and metacognitive thinkers who understand that prior experience and learning Engineering from failure can ultimately lead to better solutions. Students must also learn to manageThinking (EThink) uncertainty, risk, safety factors, and product reliability. There are additional ways of

Both Q1-GPCG and Q1-AChave approximately symmetrical feedback distributions with skewness values of 0.11, thoughQ1-AC has a slight bias towards higher ratings, and Q1-GPCG shows a neutral pattern. Incontrast, Q2-AC shows a skewness of -0.96, reflecting a strong preference for higher ratings,while Q2-GPCG, with a skewness of 0.96, tends towards lower ratings. Observation 1 The Additional Context(AC) method, providing course-relevant information, is better for generating feedback on project proposals as it not only offers feedback but also responds to questions regarding proposal rubrics related to the course, which cannot be answered by

low values correspond to ‘veryweak/unimportant/little’ and high values correspond to ‘very strong/important/much.’ Most ofthe participating students had no previous experience with research before the Fellowship, whichoffers an explanation for the increase in response for students’ general perception of themselvesas a researcher. Of the three blocks of interest, the lowest numerical responses (Likert responseoption 1-4) from students in the pre survey consistently came from questions in the “identity”section related to their identity as a researcher. Generally, in the post results the mean value ofresponses increased, but only about half of the respondents reflected a somewhat strong or better(Likert response options 5-7) relationship to the

Interleaved practice helps studentsdiscriminate between various kinds of problems and learn the appropriate method for each one. Itrequires that students organize tasks and solution methods. Therefore, during interleaved practicestudents are practicing two things: the skill being taught as well as the skill of identifying whichsolution method should be used [5]. Interleaved practice naturally covaries with distributedpractice. Therefore, some of the benefits of interleaved practice may reflect the benefits ofdistributed practice, such as practice pulling from

This study aims to build on the foundation laid by previous research,offering new insights into the nuances of CF's effects in educational settings and its implicationsfor both theory and practice. The variability of results from studies of CF can be partially attributed to differences inresearch paradigms and how CF is induced. In the first paradigm, CF is induced through therepetition of different tasks. The impact of CF is then measured by comparing performance on thefirst task to later tasks. For example, Ackerman and Kanfer [12] examined the effects of CF bycomparing final scores on the SAT for groups who took the exam

Everyone copes differently with grief due to differences andvaried life experiences, and there are evidently many ways that individuals can respond to grief,as reflected in the BRIEF COPE questionnaire, a 28-item survey that contains 14 sub-scales tocapture various coping strategies[69]. These are: active coping, planning, positive reframing,acceptance
