Wright, Courtney J.; Wilson, Sarah A.; Hammer, Joseph H.; Hargis, Lucy E.; Miller, Melanie E.; Usher, Ellen L. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Background: Engineering students encounter high levels of stress, which may negatively impact their mental health. Nevertheless, engineering students who experience mental health distress are less likely than their peers to seek professional help, even when controlling for gender and race/ethnicity. Purpose: We examined beliefs that undergraduate…

Carroll, Laura J.; Reeping, David; Finelli, Cynthia J.; Prince, Michael J.; Husman, Jenefer; Graham, Matthew; Borrego, Maura J. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Background: Despite well-documented benefits, instructor adoption of active learning has been limited in engineering education. Studies have identified barriers to instructors' adoption of active learning, but there is no well-tested instrument to measure instructors perceptions of these barriers. Purpose: We developed and tested an instrument to…
