A critical considerationfor me was the belief that discussions around topics such as race, gender, class, etc. should not berelegated to one week focused on “equity.” I was worried that relegating all equity- and justice-related content to one week would devalue it in the minds of students and perpetuate the idea thatall the other content in the course was neutral or apolitical. My course had two full weeksdedicated especially to gender and colonialism in the course. In addition, most of the other weeksincluded concepts, ideas, and examples

Considering these indications that the program was a success, this study’s research objectives aremeant to draw from that collective experience and provide insight for engineering educators designing similar skill-sharing events between engineers and students and professionals from other disciplines, especially those stemmingfrom a specific need to take a multi-sectoral approach. With that in mind, this study of that program, as well asreflections on this interdisciplinary collaboration and measures of the program’s impacts, was a valuable opportunityto examine our research questions and derive

solve theproblem—as the designer proceeds in the design process. Andrews connected design failures toPiaget’s “perturbations” in the environment that encourage students to get curious and learn [4,9]. Another way to consider how design failure may inspire learning is to compare it to howanomalous data may do the same in science education. As Chinn and Malhotra found in fourseparate experiments, “upper elementary school children are fair minded in their observations ofdata about empirical regularities in science, and they are willing and able to change their beliefsin response to their observations” (p. 342) [10].Squarely in the engineering education space, Crismond [11, 12] and Crismond and Adams [2]assert the importance of diagnostic

engineering majors and others persistthrough completing the degree [3].Numerous studies have proved the link between a strong sense of engineering identity andsuccess in the field [4]. This ties directly into retention rates as students who see their ownvalidity in engineering disciplines are more likely to stay in undergraduate engineering programs[9]. With this in mind, some universities have tried to increase retention rates by creating spacesfor students to do what we’ve termed, “make.” Dougherty’s [5] universally accepted definitionof “making” encompasses traditional trades like woodworking, sewing, and soldering with moremodern activities including coding, 3D-printing, and laser cutting [6]. Our definition of“making” is similar, but
