The Gendered Effect of Cooperative Education, Contextual Support, and Self‐Efficacy on Undergraduate Retention (2014, background): “The Lichtenstein et al. (2010) study referred to earlier, for example, pointed out that female engineering undergraduates took more advantage of mentors than did male undergraduates.”
Making ethics explicit: Relocating ethics to the core of engineering education (2013, background): “Engineering students, however, continue to spend an exceedingly high number of credit hours in lecture courses, especially at the undergraduate level.(26) Lecture-style courses require students to quickly intake and apply packaged information from lectures, but students are often left with little ti”
Outcomes of a Longitudinal Administration of the Persistence in Engineering Survey (2010, result): “This level of persistence is comparable to that reported by Lichtenstein et al. (2010) who used a longitudinal dataset of over 11,000 college students to explore persistence in a number of disciplinary fields.”
