Our emerging framework acknowledges that instructors – including tenure-track, contractfaculty, and graduate teaching assistants – will typically require professional development tosupport them as they design and teach these courses. We also acknowledge that for engineeringto move beyond siloed discussions of equity, academic programs need to revise multiple requiredcourses, including technical/ engineering science courses.

Many new engineers learn largely opaque organizational practices and unwrittenrules of advancement as they go—with some having more informational advantage than others.One such practice is a developmental, or “stretch”, assignment. We define stretch assignments asinformally allocated work

Our experience shows thatthe removal of prerequisites, making the course readily available for those interested in pursuingCS, had no significant impact on student performance. Having minimal prerequisites has beneficialeffects in terms of diversifying the CS student body as well as enabling students to begin CScoursework early, often in the first semester, potentially impacting persistence, but also enablingstudents to decide, early, if CS is right for them.
