Throughout the program, professionaldevelopment activities are efficiently delivered through standardized materials to teach criticalresearch skills like record keeping, establishing group expectations and dynamics, and networking.These skills are also reinforced at workshop events hosted during the semester, which areeffectively delivered online and yield growing impact for modest effort as the community grows.The program has been successfully implemented as evidenced by the last two semesters’evaluation findings through interviews, focus groups, and pre-post surveys.

Due tothis being a work in progress no assessment has been conducted at this time. In addition, thecourse is only 0.5 credit hours for the student. Due to this low number of hours and the course,being conducted in the fashion of a laboratory course but with the deliverables being design andfabrication of components for the Baja SAE car no assignments and exams were administered.In the future, an increase in hours would allow for homework problems and/or exams to beconducted.

It also means thattranslanguaging is understood to be a key tool for expression and identification.Translanguaging is defined as the full range of dynamic linguistic practices that bilingualsengage in [14]. These practices include, but are not limited to, code switching, mixing ormeshing, bilingual reading, linguistic borrowing, writing and conversing. Our project, based onCSP and translanguaging theory, questioned the strict separation of languages as well asassimilation into whiteness as the end goal of education [13]. Strict separation of languages,however, is one of the hallmarks of DLBE in which at least 50% of the instructional time isrecommended in the partner language (i.e., a language other than English).

Like most processes, an iterative flowbenefits the outcome by allowing for adjustments and input. The application of the SEDP allowsfor a scaffolding for the iterations, adjustments, inclusions, and intentionality of equitableendeavors. Our lessons learned are peppered throughout this paper because of the iterativeprocess of the socially engaged design model.

We wanted to use a selection of theirpapers to begin understanding the citation politics at play in STEM journals.

Activelearning strategies for college courses were discussed in [3], including pause procedures duringlectures, group discussions, clickers, peer reviews and games. Student-centric learning requiresstudents to take ownership of their learning and places emphasis on students’ interests, abilitiesand learning styles [4].

Although engineering programs work towardhelping their students develop teamwork competencies, teamwork in engineering classrooms hasbeen largely bereft of direct teaching about the communication-rooted components of teamwork(Kedrowicz & Nelson, 2007), tending instead to focus on the process and organizationalelements of teamwork and various levels of assessment, such as peer-assessment and observation(Chowdhry & Murzi, 2019).

Despite anincrease of students at the center of merging underrepresented identities enrolling inpost-secondary education institutions, their involvement in STEM programming is stilldisproportionate to straight, cis, white, peers [5]. As educators, we often think about the ways in which a student’s educational experience thattakes place many years before a student enters the workforce or a post-secondary institutionimpacts these graduation and employment rates in the STEM fields.
