Through this autoethnographic approach, we were able to share our livedexperiences while systematically analyzing them.To examine our experiences, we collectively developed a set of reflection questions, listedbelow. We then each answered them independently about our work in our specific informallearning context. We each reflected on the following prompts: • Describe the setting in which you have conducted research and assessments in informal STEM settings. • What questions were you investigating, and what methods were used? • What population(s) were you focused on? • How did you recruit participants? What went well? What were the challenges? • How did you collect data? What went well? What

Traditionally, homework assignments have taken on many forms: projects, readingprompts (in selected articles or chapters from a textbook), or responses to question from a givensource [3]. In recent years, however, many qualities of the homework format have been altered.These aspects include digital submissions or digital assignments entirely. Students have reportedhigher scores from these digital methods, but previous data analysis suggests there are nodifferences between this and the physical forms of homework [32].

(CDC), over 1 billion people from the world population [2] and approximately 26%of people in the U.S. live with some form of a disability [3]. WHO and the CDC measure andclassify disability through six questions related to hearing, vision, cognitive, mobility, self-care,and independent living [4]. With such a large portion of the population classified with having adisability, there are still a disproportionate amount of people with disabilities participating inU.S. higher education approximately 11%, [5]. This lower participation rate may stem fromsystemic barriers within educational institutions that perpetuate ableism. Ableism “describes, andis reflected in, individual and group perceptions of certain abilities as essential” and

Introduction The interest in “wicked problems” in science and engineering reflects a growingrecognition that the most pressing technological needs of the 21st century do not fall neatly intoany single discipline. Because they sit at the intersection of many competing disciplines andinterests, wicked problems defy easy definition or solution [1]. Rather, they demand challenge-centered research that requires the collaboration of the full range of traditional scientific fields,as well as an understanding that those challenges arise in

Using these classes as our foundation, we introduce students to theconcepts listed in Table 1. These topics are covered through a combination of lecture and classactivities, including opportunities for role playing which has been shown to provide a more vivideducation experience for students [2]. To demonstrate the influence of culture on the engineeringdesign process, for example, student teams develop simple designs for household cleaning choresand then reflect on the cultural assumptions they bring to the design, whether those assumptionswould be universally appropriate, and whether all engineers would define

Meanwhile, STEM is a familiar term within contemporary American educationalsystems, but it does not reflect a monolithic domain unto itself, and it is not always clear howengineering relates to science, technology, or math within this framing. While engineering aloneis a rich area of exploration, contextualizing it with other disciplines can highlight

Similarly, other research efforts have primarily focused on instructors’ evidence-basedteaching strategies at Predominately White Institutions (PWI). Some of the change strategiesinclude diffusing and implementing curriculum and pedagogy; creating faculty learningcommunities that promote reflection among instructors; and developing an organizational culturethat supports new knowledge [5].

appropriate remedy is considered, designers engagein improving the solution. Designers may also engage in improving when they identify ways anexisting solution could be better. Since design is an iterative process [17], improving the designmay require re-engaging in all aspects of design multiple times [19]. Experienced designers goback and forth between the problem framing and solution development [31] where theunderstanding of the problem co-evolves as the solution is being developed [33]. Redesigningthe solution may also be required if the solution failed to work or satisfy the design criteria [34].Reflective evaluation is often an underlying component of optimizing a solution [35].
