areexplained away by a false sense of meritocracy, an idea that people get what they personallymerit, rather than seeing injustice as a consequence of technological design, bias or largersystemic issues [2]. Faculty who been trained immersed in this culture, tend to normalize themainstream values and lack training and comfort in integrating social justice issues in theircourses [4]. And students who have interest in social justice often feel they must leave it at thedoor of their engineering classes [2]. As a result, students are often unaware of how engineering intersects with social justice[3]. And even when they are aware, it becomes less important to students over the course of theircareers [2]. Prior scholarship has highlighted a narrow

At the University of Ottawa, during the pandemic, it was decided thatrequesting a student to turn on their web camera, while potentially helping to improve student’presence’, constituted an invasion of privacy (i.e. forcing the student to invite the instructorand/or other students into their bedroom).The absence of the Metacognitive Self-Regulation scale among the four most significant latentvariables implies that reflection skills may not be an essential factor in the course.
