historically marginalized communities. Alongside global partners, Taylor works with Rice360 to empower university student innovators to improve lives through invention education, a community-based model for engineering education that leverages design studios, curricular transformation led by faculty champions, administrator endorsement, and connected local innovation ecosystems. Taylor has 8 years of experience advising engineering design teams through capstone design and first year design courses. Prior to joining Rice University, Taylor worked with the Virginia Tech Center for Enhancement of Engineering Diversity and WomEng Malawi, in partnership with the Malawi Polytechnic, to design, implement, and monitor engineering

theirfuture professional lives may unfold largely online [12].How is EC changing and what capacities do engineering students need to build?Early-career engineers will need to be well positioned to affect change, negotiate solutions, andunderstand stakeholder perspectives remotely, collaboratively, and documented in real-time.Advances in virtual reality suggest that remote, collaborative work will continue to benormalized. As these technological innovations advance, social and behavioral science cancontribute to our understanding of best practices for teaching Engineering Communication (EC).Additionally, EC training also presents a growth opportunity for adult engineering learners whomay be uncomfortable with technology, creating developmental
