Comparing Students' Mathematics Achievement by Their School Types Inclusive STEM Schools that implemented PLTW curriculum with Inclusive STEM Schools that did not Implement PLTW.

Ieee, Bicer A, Boedeker P, Kopparla M, Capraro RM, Capraro MM.
UIID-AD: 3825
2015;1363-1367.

Inclusive STEM high schools (ISHSs) are increasingly emerging in the research literature and have yielded promising effects on students' science and mathematics achievement [1; 2; 3]. ISHSs emphasized STEM preparation for underrepresented subpopulations and offered open enrollment. In the...

First in the Family: A Comparison of First-Generation and Non-First-Generation Engineering College Students.

Ieee, Godwin A, Verdin D.
UIID-AD: 3949
2015;2059-2066.

This study investigates first-generation and non-first-generation engineering undergraduates' math/science identities, subject-related interests, and career plans. First-generation students are an understudied, but growing population. Understanding how these self-beliefs and background factors affect students' engineering choice can help widen pathways into...

Fit for Science A course for teaching to organize, perform and present scientific work in engineering with mobile devices.

Ieee, May D, Ossenberg P.
UIID-AD: 3893
2015;176-183.

In German higher engineering education the meaningful use of mobile devices is still underrepresented and seldom goes beyond simple technology provision. This is the case although the use of mobile devices offers completely new opportunities for teaching and learning...
