(Dis)Engaging with entrepreneurial training
Over the past two decades, entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education have increasingly been integrated into higher education and academic careers. Driven in large part by the need to compete on a global scale, academic entrepreneurship is emerging as a means of financial support, innovation, and aplomb for academic scientists and engineers. However, entrepreneurial spaces, including entrepreneurial training, remain dominated by men. Underst…
Women STEM faculty’s intentions to engage in entrepreneurship education programs
Unpacking High School Students’ Motivational Influences in Project-Based Learning
Purpose: The presented study was conducted to unpack high school students’ motivational influences in engineering/computer science project-based learning (PjBL), using the attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction (ARCS) model of motivation as a conceptual framework. Methods: A qualitative research approach was used with student focus groups as the data source. A total of six focus groups with 32 student participants was conducted. The s…
Contextual Influences on the Adoption of Evidence-Based Instructional Practices by Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty
Contribution: This study aimed to improve understanding of context-based affordances and barriers to adoption of evidence-based instructional practices (EBIPs) among faculty in electrical and computer engineering (ECE). Context-based influences, including motives, constraints, and feedback mechanisms impacting EBIP adoption across six ECE faculty participants were documented using qualitative analysis. Background: Recent engineering education lit…
Sustained inequity
Engineering Entrepreneurship Program Participation
Background: Entrepreneurship education has gained significant attention in engineering. This has led to the widespread development of engineering entrepreneurship programs (EEPs) that instill entrepreneurial skills and mindsets in engineering graduates. While research has documented the benefits of EEPs, there is a paucity of research examining differences among men and women on factors informing their participation in EEPs. The purpose of the st…
After the Workshop
Engineering education research has empirically validated the effectiveness of active learning over traditional instructional methods. However, the dissemination of education research into instructional practice has been slow. Faculty workshops for current and future instructors offer a solution to promote the widespread adoption of active learning in engineering classrooms. However, most of the existing research has relied on faculty self-reporti…
