Most students docomplete an attachment: we found that 11 out of the 21 current students had already completed ashort attachment. Meanwhile, 14 of the students had plans for where they will be working forduring their upcoming long attachment. Of these students, about half found their attachmentsthrough personal connections while the other half received help from Tumaini staff, asexemplified by this student: When I am here in school, our teacher provide[s] for us where we are going for

Theirinternalized recognition, coupled with the recognition by meaningful others, further reinforcedwomen’s identities as scientists. As such, external recognition played a critical role in validatingtheir competence as knowledgeable science people.

might impede on the progress of the project [7].Research MethodsLikert surveys (with open-ended questions) were administered at the start of the program tounderstand participant motivation for engaging in the experience, at the halfway point to gainfeedback on their journey in the program, and at the end of the project to examine whetherfaculty perceptions of access, diversity, equity, and inclusion changed throughout their time inthe project. There will be a final survey deployed at the end of year two to assess whether whatfaculty learned in the project ultimately impacted degree completion for MS. This paper isfocused on the feedback from Cohort 1’s survey responses at the end of their first year in theprogram.Preliminary FindingsWhile

The majority of students provided responses on their quiz papers whichclearly demonstrated a failure to embrace the content of the quiz question(s); they would simplyprovide some response so they would get their B. Accordingly, although the source of 10% ofthe final course grade is different for the control and treatment groups, the effect on final coursegrades is at best very minimal.Regular writing assignment in the treatment group The main feature which differentiates the treatment group from the control group is thehomework. With the exception of a few additional problems over the course of the semester,students in the treatment group received the same homework problems as the students in thecontrol group. However, where the
transition using equipment purchased in thelate 1990’s and early 2000’s, the equipment quickly showed that it was not up to the task. The lackof machine controller capability was evident in very slow motions due to low block processingspeeds of the controllers, long wait times for program uploads, insufficient machine memory forlarge program sizes, and very long wait times for on-machine program searches and editing. Thehardware also demonstrated a lack of capability with many short, jerky moves and frozen axismotions. To address these limitations, a new set of machines was recently purchased. A set ofsimilar size vertical spindle CNC mills was purchased. Each of these machines has a moderncontroller with capability for loading, editing, and running

of 5466 articles that discussed “uncertainty” or “error” [8]. This view of error as“unimportant” has deep roots; Salsburg [9] describes a common practice in the 1800’s, One way was to keep the precise mathematical formulas and treat the deviations between the observed values and the predicted values as small, unimportant error. [12, p. 15]Thus, it is common in mathematics to view error as negligible and unimportant. In contrast,statistics as a field of study takes variability as the core object of study [6]. Wild and Pfannkucharticulate the orientation of statisticians towards understanding variability, Statisticians look for sources of variability by looking for patterns and relationships between variables
beforestarting the modeling activity. As mentioned earlier, there is also a tendency for some students to lockinto modeling skills they learn earlier in a course which might bias those students who have fallen behindtowards overusing the sketching tool. As an assignment neither solution would be wrong unless theinstructor gave guidance that would influence use of one over the other e.g. using the simplest sketchespossible favoring Designer 3’s solution or using the fewest features possible favoring Designer 2'ssolution. However, there is value to developing within engineers the skill of planning as opposed tojumping into in a problem without much forethought. Understanding of how these tendencies might playout in a modeling assignment can help

sexual identity—intersect with STEM-related areas of inquiry. Using a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives, WGS 250 investigates how STEM fields both shape and are shaped by ideas and assumptions about gender and identity. Topics include feminist critiques of science, intersections of gender with technology design/use, gender and the built environment, and links between gender and “doing” STEM. Learning Outcomes: ● Demonstrate an understanding of core critical concepts in the field(s) of feminist STEM studies, particularly critiques of objectivity, neutrality, and evidence. ● Identify and articulate the mutually constitutive intersections of social categories
