As was reflected in the open-ended responses fromSurvey 1 and Survey 3, participants in the focus group also listed math as their most difficultSTEM course. As far as their opinions on the Engineering Design and Communication course,students had a positive experience to date in the class. They appreciated learning a quantitativeapproach to choosing a design solution as well as the unique opportunities the course providedwhich they might not find elsewhere at Duke. Students elaborated on learning the engineeringdesign process, saying the process is different than expected as it took much more time than theythought would be necessary for

In this approach, the students submit theirassignment excerpts at least two days before the workshop so that the peers and often a mentorhave the chance to read, reflect, edit, and

to working as a civilengineer requires passing two exams (FE and PE) and M/30 that other engineeringdisciplines do not require. So more clear communication on these issues is important.Clearly outlining the necessity for requiring an M/30 prior to professional licensure will beimportant. The reasons that students used in their writings may provide insight into thearguments that they found most compelling. It is important that this message comes fromindustry and practicing engineers rather than academia. A number of the seniors usedlanguage that reflected their belief that the M/30 requirement was motivated by greedyuniversities. Some students proposed changes in the BS degree or changes in the PE examthat could ensure competency. There

tofirst reflect upon and identify HC and then to respond and react to HC from an emotional, self-efficacy, and self-advocacy standpoint.C. Preliminary considerations for appropriate interventions for HC in engineeringRecent literature has indicated that when engineering educators and students fail to recognize thepersistence of a cultural influence in engineering education, undesirable consequences can result[51]. For example, a lack of culturally-responsive and holistic curricular content may limit students'understanding of their future professional roles [52], which may hinder students’ sense of"ownership" (i.e., self-efficacy) of their professional actions and beliefs [53], [54]. In addition, a lackof social capital for underrepresented groups

-parametricstatistical analyses in this work, and their results were in general agreement. Another limitation to this work relates to the pre-constructed questions and responses built intothe focus group design. The space from which students could draw questions relevant to their designwas constrained in a manner that may not be reflective of what they might ask in a true industrial set-ting. This could be remedied by an open question format; however, this is difficult to regulate withinan epistemic game environment. It would be possible to further determine student valuation of thedesign metrics through qualitative analysis of the notebook logs students maintained during theseactivities.

The highest ratings came from theimportance of developing an elevator pitch, while the lowest ratings, including the only ratingamong this group below the neutral response, involved participation in the business competition.The higher ratings associated with developing an elevator pitch could again be due to thestudents’ higher level of comfort with oral presentations. The lower ratings associated with thebusiness competition do not reflect the student self-assessment of learning outcomes, and theseratings seem to depend heavily on whether the students advanced past the initial paperwork-onlyround of the

For example, Erin reported that other female colleagues’ experiencescaused her to lose trust in her program and contributed to an unsupportive climate. She stated, Some of my fellow female students have encountered some issues that I feel reflect poorly on the program and has kind of made me lose a little bit of respect, a little bit of faith in what they're doing.

(14) It does, to a great extent, depend on the abilities and experience ofthe lecturer. An able and committed lecturer can accomplish the following: 1. Relate the material proficiently and effectively, in a manner that reflects lecturer’s personal conviction and grasp of the subject matter; 2. Provide students with a thoughtful, scholarly role model to emulate; 3. Supplement the subject matter with current developments not yet published, or interject lecturer’s own views derived from his/her own
