Consequently, the originalCyberAmbassadors curriculum incorporates activities, examples and exercises that are centeredin the context of exploratory research. This type of research is generally found in academicsettings, such as research universities and non-profit institutions, as well as in government-funded laboratories. Designing the curriculum to reflect the language and positions common tothese settings (e.g., investigator, research group, graduate student, postdoc) is an important partof the constructivist and sociocultural pedagogy embraced by the CyberAmbassadors project[7]–[9].

Can a Body Do? How We Meet the Built World, the artist, design researcher, and OlinCollege professor Sara Hendren writes, “Engineering is not the science of the laboratory alone…It is fundamentally applied, which means its results live in the world. It belongs to people, notjust as ‘users’ but as protagonists of their dimensional lives” [1, p. 23]. Hendren’s invocation of avision of engineering as radically human-centered provided the philosophical and humanisticcore to our interdisciplinary teaching team as we embarked on designing a new course forfirst-year students at Boston College (BC).

Beyond the reflection engendered bythe process, following the visit one concern was that curricular limitations did not allow studentsto take a sufficient number of electives. This finding resulted in faculty more broadly looking atthe curriculum rather than just specific, focused changes in existing courses.The second and third factors—a new chair and young faculty—were simply coincidental since anew, external department chair had been hired less than two years before the ABET visit at atime when 70% of the faculty in the department had been at PALACE for less than a

]. 2 An effective add-on to any instructional method are apprenticeship models, which offermany attractive benefits for educating students to build prototypes through feedback loops. Thecognitive model of situated learning—which apprenticeship falls under—engages experts totrain students (novices), often placing them in side-by-side working situations [4]. This format isconducive to the teaching of procedural techniques, such as laboratory methods, shop methods,coding, and culinary processes. Both the presentation of content and the participation bystudents are necessarily active and social in this educational style [5]. These types of instructioncombine explicit and tacit knowledge [6] and in doing so focus on the practice of what it

This uptake allows us to resist the tendency toexplain away critical or purposeful reading practices: “Oh, I was never asked to read this ingraduate school!” Or, “Yeah, we don’t really read ‘that stuff’ in engineering.”These trends represent some pain points that the field might do well to reflect and act on. Evenwithin the field’s efforts to address equity and inclusion, Black women’s knowledge appears tobe delegitimized or erased.
