The Importance of Collaborative Design for Narrowing the Gender Gap in Engineering: An Analysis of Engineering Identity Development in Elementary Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
McLean, Mandy; Nation, Jasmine M.; Spina, Alexis; Susko, Tyler; Harlow, Danielle; Bianchini, Julie – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2020
Research suggests that, to narrow the gender gap in engineering, we should focus on helping young girls identify with engineering both because gendered attitudes emerge around kindergarten and because identity is more predictive than performance on persistence in the field. This qualitative study sought to understand the impact of collaborative…

What Young Adolescents Think about Engineering: Immediate and Longer Lasting Impressions of a Video Intervention
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Jennings, Sybillyn; McIntyre, Julie Guay; Butler, Sarah E. – Journal of Career Development, 2015
To explore young adolescents' interest in engineering as a future career, we examined the influence of gender and grade level on participants' (N = 197, aged 10-13) views of engineering. One group (107 students) viewed a brief engineering video and wrote why they felt the same or different about engineering following the video. Qualitative…
