Jennifer DeBoer studies engineering education, focusing on how students learn engineering concepts through curricula, teaching methods, and technology-supported (online/blended) learning environments. Her recent work examines culturally relevant and localized engineering curricula in international and underrepresented-community contexts, including projects in sub-Saharan Africa, and explores topics like spatial visualization skills, self-efficacy, and identity among diverse student groups. Much of the research combines qualitative and quantitative methods to assess engineering attitudes, curriculum design, and program outcomes.
Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade with a notable spike in 2020 and 2024, but recent 5-year output averages around 6 papers per year, suggesting a steady but variable publication pace.
