other institutions can become involved in our summer researchexperiences.The research team developed a 2 hour training with a slide deck for our future research mentors. Thiswork was led by a team member from our Center for Equity and Inclusion at UWT. The training includestopics such as land acknowledgements, tools for connecting mentors with knowledge of local tribes andthe history of systemic racism in the United States, micro affirmations, and mentoring best practices. Thementor training will be tested on faculty mentors if additional funding is available in 2023 for our work tocontinue.MethodsOur methods include both student surveys and qualitative review of student work and research journals.Due to small sample sizes in our first year of

. TheEmerging Scholars Program involved students solving challenging calculus 1 problems inworkshops in which trained graduate students facilitated the problem-solving process usingSocratic questioning and offering help when necessary. Subsequent research by Treismanindicated that offering freshmen a non-threatening, small-group but challenging environment toexplore math concepts impacts participants' success in these subjects and motivates them topersist [10], [11], [12].Funded by the National Science Foundation, the PLTL model was first developed for GeneralChemistry at the City College of New York in the early 1990’s and later extended to math,biology and engineering courses. The PLTL model has become a nationally recognized andreplicated model of

to drawa picture of the idea, which helps envision what it will look like in practice and an opportunity tocommunicate the idea to a wider audience. Conceptualization and enrichment of new ideas areimportant and are akin to agile design and rapid prototyping in innovation [10], [12].The students were not provided with a formalized worksheet for reflection and instead weregiven time in the workshop to reflect quietly on the process and encouraged to share theirexperience with the group. It was noted that in the future, a reflection worksheet would havebeen helpful for participants. The researcher has included one in Appendix A.The ten-thousand rose finale activity is based on an energy tool that encourages participants byproviding “praise and

director, or they may have been the product of such a program. In neither case,however, is it possible for new directors to understand and learn every aspect of planning andstrategy. Even if the previous director desires to impart all that they know, it is possible that thereis knowledge or meta-knowledge that they, themselves, are unaware they possess.Another challenge is the lack of widespread understanding of the state of the art in diversity,equity, inclusion, and belonging from a practitioner standpoint. The community exists in a stateof functional dichotomy between those designated as researchers and practitioners. In addition,there are many members of the academic community who are not aware of either the currentstate of practice OR

This aspect of our data analysis considered 6sorting codes per our research question and the retention element of Griffin’s [12] institutionalmodel for increasing faculty diversity, focusing on issues related to professional development,advancement, satisfaction, and support in institutional and departmental retention policies,practices, and structures. We also centered this aspect on our analysis of how participantsattached significance to the aforementioned elements in enabling them to remain at theirinstitutions. Subsequently, the

The failure toacknowledge and support individuals experiencing grief not only undermines their personal well-being but also jeopardizes their professional contributions and overall organizational health.In this study, the researchers examined the literature concerning grief and bereavement, with aspecific focus on the profound ramifications for women in academic settings. Moreover, theycritically investigated existing organizational policies and grief and bereavement supportinitiatives within academic institutions. Drawing insights from their analysis, recommendationsand a

This project was effective in inspiring creativity and confidence as the participatingstudents’ poems were realized in a finished sculpture as shown in Figures 4-7. The presentationof the sculpture at Bountiful Davis Art Center elevated their creations within the context of anoutdoor sculpture on view for the public, which is intended to have an impact on buildingconfidence through firsthand experience of the artistic process— from conception of an idea, tothe realization of the design and the act of exhibiting for the public.
