regarding specific scenarios but inconsistencies in approaches have minimized thegreater possible impact of center evaluations [11, 12].Large-scale, cooperative efforts are essential to further innovation and effective practicesemerging from such centers [11]. A multi-institutional consortium, The ERC EvaluationConsortium (TEEC), was formed to combat prior shortcomings through the design of easilyaccessible quantitative and qualitative [13] evaluation instruments shared by all centers. Theconsortium is composed of ERC education directors, researchers, and evaluators from six NSF-funded ERCs.This research paper reports on the in-progress validation efforts for the Multi-ERC InstrumentInventory (MERCII) survey designed to assess the perceived impact

that guide engineering research. I, and many of my colleagues, while noting the historyof marginalization of people who look and think like us in engineering contexts, beganquestioning the value systems that undergird the engineering research enterprise in which weoperate. We noted discrepancies between the espoused values of the enterprise and those thatwere enacted by some of the agents that operate in engineering research spaces. For example, inour graduate context, we noted an espoused desire for equity and inclusion alongside aperpetuation of stress culture, a centering of White theories in our foundational classes, and alack of accommodation for non-traditional and neurodivergent students. We began to questionother value systems having

Researchers need torecognize that integrating STEM and robotics content in teachers’ curricula may not be as simpleand intuitive as it appears and will require conscious and consistent efforts on their side, whichshould be very much appreciated. At first sight, such connections may seem naive and furtherreify the gendered nature of STEM. But it is a critical first step for our informants to think aboutrobotic integration in their classroom and make the robotic experience relevant for their students.We understand that how our informants experience and
