According to Aslam and Villanueva Alarcón [15], engineeringepistemologies and engineering diversity and inclusiveness are two underexplored research areasin engineering education research after exploring the advertised research areas on the respectiveU.S. institutional websites.Since engineering education is still considered a new discipline [16], [17], the composition offaculty expertise across the departments of engineering education in the U.S. may vary. Thisdiversity in faculty may result in different research approaches, mentoring styles, and practicesfor engineering education. As the discipline of engineering education and its research practicescontinue to evolve, it will be important to document how

Autumn 2022 we developed and offered for the first time an Introduction to Engineeringcourse centered on coffee [13], modeled on the successful coffee-based class pioneered at UCDavis [14] and used at several other universities. Both the Introduction to Research andIntroduction to Engineering courses were aimed at first time in college, first year students. Aswe began to welcome more students who had earned dual enrollment credit during high school(e.g., “Running Start”), it became clear that more advanced options were needed. This led to thedevelopment of an Engineering course-based undergraduate research course aimed at enteringtransfer students or Running Start students with junior standing, and offered in the interimperiod between summer and

employed the Elo and Kyngäs inductive analysis approach, extracting data for publicationyear, study objectives, number of citations, authors’ related publications, stakeholders addressed,stakeholder perceptions, AI4K12 content coverage, and ethical considerations. We analyzed eachtopic, finding commonality and uniqueness among the articles. By analyzing the objectives, wefound these articles highlighted four primary themes: curriculum and program development,teaching and learning methods, student engagement and perceptions, and inclusion and diversityin education. We also found that there was a significant increase in publications of this sortpublished in 2022, with a decrease in publications in 2023.Using our other extracted data, we were able to
