Additionally, within the community collegepopulation, 58 percent are women and approximately 30 percent would qualify as firstgeneration college or low income students [2], [7] . Overall, 41 percent of all undergraduatesattend community college [5].First generation students make up almost one-third of all undergraduates and are more likely toattend community college [8], [9]. Additionally, first generation students with low-incomebackgrounds and an underrepresented racial identity often have less personal experience inacademic planning and are aware of fewer academic and career opportunities. These factorscontribute to the struggle many face with completing STEM degree programs. Supporting STEMdevelopment

As a result, they spent considerable time in the first twoweeks of their project visiting the women’s collective and talking with its members about theirneeds.However, the research, including several collaborative workshops planned with the localcommunity organization to better align with local interests, was cut short when the students hadto pack up and return home abruptly. As a result, they had to shift the project’s trajectory,working remotely to develop digital resources instead of working on-site to design and buildsomething physical that the women’s collective could use. The changes they implementedincluded using digital graphics and online meetings with a

We also acknowledge that two differentsurveys were used across the two courses. The first pilot survey was quite simple and was usedto determine whether further research would be done on student learning with proficiency-basedgrading. Given the positive responses, a more thorough survey was developed for the secondoffering.

To encourage students to find solutions to their own problems within their team,the course includes a “dismissal protocol” to address behaviors that violate established teamrules. Designed to be used after other approaches have failed, this protocol requires that teammembers prepare a written statement, deliver it to the course instructors, engage in a meeting tohear concerns and develop plans to remedy them, and, if the behavior is not corrected, a studentcan be removed from the course so long as the department chair approves.
