The three participants’ community-serving mindset and authenticreciprocity with high school students prompted them to become reflective and critical advocatesof the program’s original intent. As a result, they played a pivotal role in fulfilling the ultimategoal of institutional collaboration—diversifying the STEM workforce.IntroductionDiversity is widely recognized as a pivotal factor for innovation and ground-breakingtransformation in scientific research [1].

In doing so, our research aim is to approachSTEM topics that decenter whiteness beginning with our own assumptions and biases throughreflection and dialogue. Mejia et al state “ a lack of reflection prevents the cognitive andmotivational tools needed to liberate themselves from condition and historical factors that thathinder their development” [13, p. 2]. Our approach towards liberation is understanding thelimitations of scholarship and praxis when whiteness is not decentered from the conversation andperspectives. Much scholarship about gendered experiences is often framed in a Eurocentric

The teams are broken up into small groups of four or five and taskedwith designing, building, and testing an engineering solution to a pre-conceived problem. Thisclassroom serves as an ideal setting for intervention, as the students are early in theircoursework.

However, a steadyrecovery is observed with one publication each in 2021 and 2022, culminating in a significantsurge to nineteen articles in 2023. This dramatic increase reflects a burgeoning interest and apossible inflection point in research on generative AI applications within the realm of engineeringeducation, possibly propelled by increased digitalization and technological dependence in learningenvironments post-2020.
