, students are also completing the one-semester intensive EDP experience remotely in their home communities; this is planned tocontinue as an option into the future. Upon completion of the EDP, students enter 24 months ofco-op placement/on-line learning, returning to the institution after 12 months and 24 months forone-week examination periods (See Figure 2.).Figure 2. Co-op Program ModelThe motivations to start the new program come from a desire to move towards work-basedlearning, empowering student engineers to gain more practical experience while funding a largerpercentage of their own education than through a traditional engineering education. Theevolution of learning technologies empowers the attainment of this goal more so today than inthe
postdoctoral scholars of color describe their mentoring needs, particularly as theyrelate to their desire to enter the professoriate?Literature ReviewIn recent decades, numerous efforts to diversify the science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM) professoriate have been employed (Yadav et al., 2020). Despite these efforts, thedemographic makeup remains relatively unchanged (Allen-Ramdial & Campbell, 2014;Castañeda et al., 2015; Griffin et al., 2020; NSF, 2019; Zambrana et al., 2015). Presently, only6% of engineering professors identify as racial/ethnic minorities (Roy, 2019). Postdoctoralscholars are the greatest source of future faculty and subsequently a significant factor in thediversification of the STEM workforce and professoriate

We are administering pre- andpost-surveys to understand students’ interest in chemical engineering as well as animation use.This paper is a work in progress.IntroductionInteractive textbooks can improve student learning through active learning or “learning bydoing” [1-4]. The influence and familiarity of electronic devices among the “digital native”student population makes interactive learning an appealing platform for higher educationstudents [5]. One challenge is configuring educational material, such as textbooks, learningexercises, and homework into a format that applies technological tools in a familiar and engagingway that benefits learning [5].Animation advancements with digital technology bring

Engineering education’s rigid methodologies and the inflexible “gauntlet” ofengineering curricula are highly structured– but is conformist, highly structured thinkingnecessarily a gateway to complacency in the face of injustice? Could aspects of engineeringeducation make one more comfortable within systems of domination? Or, might the rigidconformist nature of engineering education make it more attractive to those with suchtendencies?Technological development has historically accelerated under authoritarian regimes, including thedesign and implementation of some of the most violent technologies in history. While someacademics have provided full-throated critiques of authoritarianism, academia itself has also longstood to protect white

Additionally, we have been visiting India almost annually to keep abreast of thechanges there. The other interesting aspect of this course was that this was primarily offered tostudents who were not part of the educated elite attending the Indian Institutes of Technologies(IIT’s), or the
