ourengineering programs into online learning environments, we realize the importance of promotinginclusion becomes even greater. One of our online offerings is a bridge program that encouragespeople with non-STEM majors to step into the STEM fields. The transition to a differentdiscipline adds a layer of complexity for students and amplifies a need for us to recognize theirdifferent academic and cultural backgrounds.Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) have a substantial opportunity to impact student perceptionsof disciplinary knowledge due to their higher level of interaction with students [1]. In someresearch-oriented universities, GTAs cover more than 90% of laboratory sections [2]. Therefore,enhancing their teaching practice will directly influence

professional considerations, are considered. ET-540: Digital Computer Theory: Provide an understanding number systems; Boolean algebra; logic elements; multivibrators; clock circuits; decoders; counters; data registers. Laboratory hours complement class workThe course contents for these two classes were modified so that a prerequisite is not required.Also, it benefits students by allowing them to take these courses and remedial mathematics in thesame semester.Women in Technology Summer WorkshopThe goal of any diverse program is to have a group that represents the makeup of the largersociety. Therefore an effort had to be made to increase the female representation in theEngineering Curriculum. Women represented 50% of the population, and over

research untaughtsubject matter. Moreover, a sense of enablement to use project planning (in and out of the classroom)was expressed.As continued efforts to this case study, the author is planning to refine and scale this model for furtherdevelopment as a stand-alone module intended to be used for deploying PM methods to STEM basedcurriculums. Options would include factoring the degree of industry participation, scope, andcomplexity. Finally, this module is planned to be offered as an OER (Open Education Resource)STEM resource for anyone looking to add authentic industry PM practices to their instruction---rangingfrom a laboratory course to a full scale dedicated capstone or PBL course.
