Withthat, and in relation to whether one identifies HC as active or passive, People of Color (POC) andmarginalized identities have operated in a world that is curtailed to and normalized/s theexperience of whiteness. Because of this, a POC woman might feel a HC that perpetuates andnormalizes the status quo of cisgender-heterosexual white male engineers as active whereas awhite male might identify a professor including nontraditional engineers of color into theircurriculum as active. HC can be identified as active or passive for different reasons based ondifferent identities. Through the lens of sociology and symbolic interactionism theory, passive is defined asindividuals who “receive society in a

Some transfer students, for example, wrote thatprevious life experience had prepared them for engineering careers and that the Engineering+program was therefore not relevant or helpful for them. Similarly, some students who stronglyidentified with a specific career or discipline felt that the time spent exploring and buildingconnections to broad engineering careers was wasted for them. For example, “The engineering100 series I felt were a waste of my time. As an older
Underrepresented Minorities in Aerospace EngineeringAbstractTraditionally, aerospace engineering disciplines are substantially underrepresented by AfricanAmerican, Hispanic, and female students. For example, Black and Hispanic American studentscollectively earn only 10.6%, 8.4%, and 6.4% of the BS, MS, and Ph.D.’s in aerospaceengineering, respectively. They are among the lowest percentages of all major engineeringdisciplines, leading to underutilization of the talent pool in the aerospace industry. 1 To tackle thisconcern, a multi-institution coalition sponsored by NASA is established to engageunderrepresented minorities in coordinated educational and professional development activities,including senior design projects, undergraduate research experiences

Clearyand Zimmerman [16] posited that self-regulated learners are generally those that proactivelyincorporate self-regulation processes (e.g., goal setting, self-evaluation), along with taskstrategies (e.g., time management, studying), and self-motivational expectations (e.g., intrinsicinterest). In problem-centered learning environments, self-regulation is especially important aslearners with limited self-regulative skills have

CoalitionThe opening of the workshop invited introductions and affirmations. Author 1’s affirmation drew onNigel Golden’s (2020) talk, “A Politic of Harm Reduction,” in which he began by disclosing his ownvalues and positionality in order to situate himself to his audience. Because Author 1 was an unknownentity entering into a complex situation, she adopted this approach, too, sharing a quote from Audre Lorde(1984) as well as a reference to Indigenous People’s Day since the presentation fell on IndigenousPeople’s day (see Figure 1) Figure 1.

recommend continuing use of learningcommunities in the future. The method for forming communities depends on whether the courseis first or later in the department sequence, and may also vary for flipped versus lecture-basedcourses. We recommend using software like CATME [10] for first courses and flipped courses,while we recommend using seating preferences in later courses and lecture-based courses.Reforming communities mid-semester depends on the need for getting to know more peers andon the type of course: flipped or lecture-based.References[1] M.
