在这篇理论论文中，我们试图回顾最近关于工程身份构建的学术成果，以帮助确定其在工程教育研究中使用的挑战和可供性。人们对扩大专业工程师队伍的兴趣日益浓厚，引发了人们对工程身份的新兴趣。我们首先对早期和当代的身份研究进行调查，然后重点关注科学中的身份研究，最后是工程学中的身份研究。我们认为工程学为观察身份提供了一个独特的视角，因为它是一个带有一套独特的历史规范、价值观和信仰的背景。越来越多的研究试图了解职业认同对工科学生意味着什么、它是如何形成的，并制定在这一特定背景下研究这一结构的措施。工程师接受过培训，注重经验并注重解决方案。与这一方向相一致，工程身份领域的学者倾向于将他们的工作建立在明确定义的框架中，其中包括在背景下开发的一系列特征。尽管这种观点为分析身份提供了易于定义的视角，但仍需要对影响学生身份发展的因素进行更多研究，特别是那些在工程教育工作者控制范围内的因素。本文将对工程身份研究进行回顾，探讨这项工作固有的挑战和可供性，并讨论对工程教育者和学者的实际意义。
In this theory paper, we seek to review recent scholarship on the construct of engineering identity to help identify the challenges and affordances of its use in engineering education research. The growing interest in expanding the body of professional engineers has sparked new interest in engineering identity. We begin with a survey of early and contemporary identity studies before focusing on studies of identity in science and, finally, engineering. We posit that engineering offers a unique lens for viewing identity, as it is a context that comes with a distinctive set of historical norms, values, and beliefs. A body of research has grown in attempts to understand what professional identity means for engineering students, how it forms, and to develop measures for studying the construct in this particular context. Engineers are trained to be empirical and solution-focused. Aligned with this orientation, scholars in engineering identity tend to ground their work in well-defined frameworks that include a collection of traits developed within the context. Although this perspective provides easily definable lenses for analyzing identity, more research is needed into the factors that influence students’ identity development – particularly those that are within the control of engineering educators. This paper will provide a review of an engineering identity study, explore the challenges and affordances inherent in this work, and discuss the practical implications for engineering educators and scholars.
