US scientists and engineers are white males even though they onlyrepresent 31.3% of the population. Women represent 50.9% of the US population yet onlyaccount for 28% of the science and engineering workforce. The situation is dire across STEMfields in academia, particularly engineering. The NSF National Center for Science andEngineering Statistics reports that in 2013, only 14.5% of tenure-line engineering faculty werewomen. Despite progress in hiring practice and promotion, white men continue to dominate toporganizational positions and “inequality regimes continue to be relatively resistant” to change1.Underrepresentation is only a part of the problem.

Since developing “evidence-based” teaching innovations has not beenenough to effect pervasive change in teaching practices in engineering schools, a need tounderstand how these innovations are adopted is broadly acknowledged. To aid in thisunderstanding, we interviewed 3 individuals to see how they perceived their teaching journeyand why they moved from teaching how they were taught to adopting student-centered practices.A narrative framework was used in the development of the interview questions and analysis ofthe responses.
