This work is part of a larger project to understand the lived experiences of Blackhigh school students during the engineering admissions process and how those experiences alignwith the programs, practices and systems that are enacted within higher education today

And I think that's kind of always a constant thing,getting an effect of more people looking at me or a kid who's never met a Black persongets put in a group with me in an engineering project and doesn't know, like he thinks I'ma different species or something. I have never felt any malicious intent towards me at thisinstitution purely because I am Black, but I have had experiences where I’ve had to dealwith ignorance from my white peers. And I know that it happened just because they havenever met a Black person before. So there's always this feeling that just knowing that theway I've maybe talked to someone in my family, I can't talk to a peer about like acomplex engineering process. I can't necessarily just

human-in-the-loop approaches to more complex, multi-topic analysis of open-ended responses from students and teachers prompted their use in this study. Like many otherstudies, our work relies on thematic analysis to facilitate effective use of NLP in the processingof qualitative, text-based feedback from students. Unlike many previous studies, however, weapply NLP at a broader scope. Instead of asking students to reflect retroactively on theirexperiences in a particular course, we open the door wider, asking them to identify anything atall a TA could do to better support their learning.MethodsThis study is part of a larger, single-institution research project, which used a survey toinvestigate the connections between different forms of support

Furthermore, such an approach does not require thelarge training corpus of responses employed in state-of-the-art machine learning approaches tosemantic analysis [12]. Two potential drawbacks of the rule-based approach are that a domainexpert is needed to create the rules that govern the analysis of text, and the rules generated for oneproblem will not necessarily apply to other problems. As the overarching idea of the web-basedwriting exercise project is to create a template that instructors are able to use to construct their ownwriting exercises, these are not considered serious drawbacks.

notrestricted to computing students. While non-computing STEM majors suffer from the same lackof representation, it is important for researchers in computing to understand discipline-specificperceptions and experiences. Finally, the study did not account for other student identitiesoutside of race and gender. This excludes more nuanced analysis of results, based on multipleforms of oppression that students may (not) experience [21]. In addition, the computingcommunity lacks significant data collection efforts related to students with disabilities,highlighting the need to account for this important (and often overlooked) identity [22].This work-in-progress paper is situated within a broader ongoing project that seeks to answertwo research questions

self-efficacy is understood to be driving self-perceptions and eventually performance in those tasks. For instance, self-concept in calculus (i.e., a domain) can be expressed as “I am able to understand and follow along the calculus classes”, and self-efficacy in calculus (i.e., task performance) can be expressed by “I am confident I can score at least a B in the upcoming test”.The above definitions for both constructs are adapted from previous research and validating orverifying them is not within the scope of this project. This study agrees with previous findings[7], [44], [45], [46], that state self-concept is a prime predictor for favorable academic outcomesand well-being as a student.
