caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. These findings were further used todesign and facilitate a virtual 7-session three-month faculty development workshop. Our researchteam was interested in the cultural lens of engineering education in this context. Our researchquestions were as follows: What does culturally relevant engineering education look like in thecontext of Iraq? How do engineering faculty members who participated in a focused professionaldevelopment workshop provide culturally relevant support to their students? We recruited 19workshop participants, and 9 consented to participate in this study. Our data consist of semi-structured interviews, reflection journals, and survey questions developed to investigate the threecriteria (academic

As a parent, educator, and researcher hehas experienced multiple moments of failure in all of those roles and tried to make sense of theintersection of theories around learning through failure, experiences in supporting learnersthrough failure and seeing his children and other kids and parents experience failure, particularlyin STEM. These experiences and extensive self-reflection influenced his input on the design ofthis intervention and the interpretation of data produced.ResultsGuided by our research questions ‘How was failure perceived by participating families?’ and‘What was the subsequent

by white men [5]. Given that white males have maintained a position ofdominance in STEM, they can use this privilege and power in addressing the concerns statedabove. In particular, white men can recognize, and act against inequity both in their classes, aswell as overall systemic inequity in STEM departments [4]. However, disruption of privilegecannot occur without continuous reflection on their whiteness, and significant engagement withpeers and students of color [17], [18]. There is a paucity of research reporting on the structuralinequity in STEM fields [5]. The goal of this paper is to explore how collaboration between aBlack and white scholar on an equity-focused research project can inform racial allyship in whitemen within the

Construction of Green Engineering Courses ECUST has offered a series of courses related to green engineering. First,"Fundamentals of Enterprise EHS Risk Management" has been offered to allengineering undergraduates as a compulsory course. This course built by over fortycorporate alumni and university faculty was listed as a national-level MOOC in 2017.Taken by about 2,300 people each year, it has been listed as a required or electivecourse by 106 universities nationwide.

shown that learning activities that reinforce concepts help students understand thecontent they previously struggled to master [12]. This approach also improves theirunderstanding of concepts, the principles that link concepts, and the linking of concepts andprinciples to conditions and procedures for application [13]. It is critical to allow students torelate concepts to their application by providing realistic scenarios for students to solve usingtheir knowledge of STEM. Integrated STEM activities can foster self-regulated/self-directedlearning in several ways. One is by prompting students for explanations via guiding questions,which help students reflect upon and integrate the knowledge they require to solve the problem[14]. For the

intention is totransform the identity and mindset of the learners in our engineering programs from ‘student’ toengineer in training, or engineering apprentice.A key feature of pro-ops is that students take on professional roles in experiences intentionallydesigned to resemble a professional experience in all aspects, to differentiate them from justanother class project. We use immersion as a measure of the level of industry-like context, with ahigh level of immersion being required to qualify as a pro-op.

In thispaper, we present the survey assignment and photovoice reflection on corrosion and erosion,specifically, as it is traditionally considered a negative surface phenomenon. Thematic analysisof the photovoice reflections show that students are motivated to explore mechanisms forincreasing system value and identifying opportunities. Ultimately, findings suggest that the useof hands-on surveying assignments to compliment the traditional teaching methods used inmanufacturing classrooms can promote an entrepreneurial mindset when studying manufacturingcontent.1.

Developing critical consciousness cannot be based solely on training or competence [5].As Freire argues, “to affirm that men and women are persons and as persons should be free, andyet to do nothing tangible to make this affirmation as reality, is a farce” [15, p. 50]. Thus,altering the conditions students of Color find in STEM requires reflection, engagement, andaction toward social justice goals from those with power.

We can,however, better predict our future behaviors by engaging in self-reflection related to our previousbehaviors, thus helping to build awareness for future judgements [15]. Due to the inherentcomplexity associated with judgements in a process safety setting, a lack of awareness maycause engineering practitioners to behave outside of their typical set of beliefs, sometimesresulting in poor or uninformed judgements.We are studying chemical engineering students to understand how their beliefs and behaviorscompare in the context of process safety judgements and how they react to any differences sothat we can prepare students to acknowledge the inherent complexity of how they
