Through engagement withpodcasts, readings, reflection, and discussion with others, this course seeks to help
Perspectives requirement, introduces students to a variety ofmetacognitive issues and practices including: developing a growth mindset; Bloom’s and Perry’staxonomies for content and intellectual development; inaccuracy in self-assessment; lateral andlongitudinal transfer of knowledge and experiences; and the benefits of self-reflection. Over200 students in five years have taken the course, with very promising results. Retention ofIMPRESS 1st-generation and DHH students into their 2nd, 3rd and 4th year are all above 80%,at or exceeding the institutional average. IMPRESS student demographics are inclusive: 35% arewomen; 32% from identities historically excluded from STEM disciplines; and 17% Deaf or Hardof Hearing (DHH). Retention results are consistent
often longer; and they are designed to becompatible with the understanding of the university as a complex ecosystem governed by a rangeof stakeholders and competing interests. The recent report on systemic change to STEM post-secondary pathways by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicinereferenced this work and highlighted PLCs as reflecting these important features (NationalAcademies of Sciences and Medicine, 2016). This report also indicated the importance ofsimultaneously addressing incentive practices and the values of the academy in order to ensurethe institutionalization of the instructional shifts. In designing our PLC, we ensured each of theseelements were present and will expand on each in turn

paradoxes ofleadership, or how leaders frequently experience competing demands. In the case of women leaders, thismay include inconsistent expectations around gender and leadership roles, such as the competence andlikeability tradeoff. Participants reflected on personal leadership successes and challenges and groupdiscussion centered on the wide range of leadership roles faculty may choose to pursue. Participantsidentified personal core values and developed an individualized leadership vision linked to these values.Other topics covered during the off-site residency included networking skills, best practices inunderstanding and motivating others, and managing difficult conversations.In between the off-campus and on-campus sessions, participants

womencompleted the workshop than men. 19 out of 30 (63%) female Spatial Novices completed Workshop A,compared to 12 out of 23 (52%) male Spatial Novices. Similarly, 17 out of 30 (57%) female SpatialIntermediates completed Workshop A, compared to only 11 out of 33 (33%) male Spatial Intermediates.Upon completion of Workshop A, the overall pass rate for women jumped to 75% (from an initial passrate of 53%). The overall pass rate for men increased from 83% to 87% after the first workshop.The full progression of pass rates for both men and women over the course of the semester is outlined inFigure 4. The midterm and final test results reflect those students who elected to re-take the PSVT:R butdid not participate in the workshop. Female students who took
apprenticeships, capstone design projects, andinternships, are offered as part of the ADVANCE model. The ultimate goal of the degreepathway model that ADVANCE offers is to ensure that students are prepared for post-baccalaureate employment and success in the workplace. ADVANCE seeks to ensure that whatstudents learn and experience in their educational journey reflects workforce realities. Mappeddegree pathways that integrate industry-defined credentials and standards will leave noambiguity for students regarding desired workforce competencies. By building in immersiveexperiential learning opportunities, students will better understand workplace expectations andprepare to transition successfully upon graduation.As ADVANCE students progress through their
