and organize focus group interviews withunderrepresented students conducting undergraduate research in general. The objective is to assessthe process of attaining their research position. In this regard, focus group interviews will beutilized to facilitate collective reflection and dialogue by providing students opportunities toopenly discuss their learning experiences with fellow peers.Resultantly, Phase 3 of this long-term project involves developing communication channels withfaculty in the school of engineering who have underrepresented minorities conducting researchunder their supervision in order to assist each other in identifying and recruiting more students.REFERENCES[1] Russell, S.

However, this grouping has been recognized in educationalreports since the 1980’s [2]. STEM had been developed by the National Science Foundation(NSF) to group together these disciplines based on the common use of critical thinking andproblem-solving skills [2, 3]. The disciplines that make up STEM are distinct but linked, withthose in engineering also studying physics, chemistry and other sciences and math being studiedin all disciplines [4]. Noticeably absent from this group is the arts, which is not recognized to bepart of STEM.In order to compare ET students to their

Some of these pre andpost goals were written on the board and as a class, the instructors, peer mentors, and studentsgot to discuss whether they thought the post-goals were better and why. This was effective athelping students to better define and enhance their own individual goals in practical ways, and inconsideration of academic excellence, and the upcoming year(s) in general, as appropriate. Thetentative assignment was to use the “S.M.A.R.T.” technique to form goal(s) for the semester andyear.

For instance, the questions that were asked during the “Reproducing macroscalebonds at the nanoscale” were: 1. What are the different mechanisms that are used at the macroscale to create a bond?

high need for assessment in change projects is often paired with a low prevalenceof formal assessment activity (Beach et al., 2016). To avoid this, a structured approach toassessment should be used from the very beginning, and conducted as an integral component ofthe entire project. During planning, assessment of “readiness for change” is critical (Reeves,2009; Lehman, Greener, and Simpson, 2002; Combe, 2014; Lynch & Smith, 2016). Movingthrough the project, assessment plans should be mindful of Banta et al.’s (1996) principle ofassessment stating that “Assessment requires attention to outcomes, but also and equally to theexperiences that lead to those outcomes”. To do this, Hall (2013) argues that direct assessment ofthe extent of

for example [40]–[43]). This line of research couldbenefit from the use of Faulkner’s and Kendi’s frameworks to investigate specific instances ofindividual and structural racism. To illustrate, we look to Murphy et al.’s assessment of GeorgiaTech’s summer bridge program, the Challenge Program, and its role in the higher likelihood ofgraduation for underrepresented minority students involved [42]. Georgia Tech is aPredominantly White Institution (PWI). Murphy et al. found that there was a significantrelationship between participation in the Challenge Program and increased retention/graduationrate [42]. Quantitatively, they recognized the need for summer bridge programs and theprogram’s importance in retention. What their study was not designed
