As international graduate students, the authors propose this work-in-progress project to better understand the “historically accumulated, culturally developed, and socially distributed resources” of the academic identity construction of international students from a graduate program in Engineering Education.

From the abstract: "[The authors] introduce development of a situational judgment test (SJT) covering three dimensions of global engineering competency (GEC) in Chinese national/cultural context. The main aim of this article is to describe how the SJT was developed through a systematic multistep process. Secondarily, we explore relationships between SJT performance and other theoretically relevant variables."
