For example, rather than assume thatthe implications of identifying with a minoritized racial/ethnic group in a particular context willbe similar for both men and women, an intersectional approach starts from the assumption thatindividuals with each combination of gender and racial/ethnic identity will have uniqueexperiences (Essers et al., 2010). Research in entrepreneurship has considered the influence ofintersecting racial/ethnic, gender, social class and religious identities (Romero & Valdez, 2016),with a limited number of studies focusing on academic entrepreneurship specifically (Jackson etal., 2022; Mickey &

This criterion focuses on studentoutcomes and ensures that the course addresses skills pertaining to analysis, design,communication, ethics, teamwork, experimentation, and continued learning [16]. Appendix Aprovides more information on the offerings of E40M.In line with continuous efforts to improve the offerings of E40M, we decided to conduct an in-depth assessment of the student experience as the course was running. Therefore, we developedand applied the CARE methodology to study E40M during the Summer 2022 academic quarter,with 42 enrolled students. During that quarter, course enrollment was open to visiting highschool students, which resulted in a mix of senior high school

The faculty team experimented with diversepedagogical approaches and strategies. Buy-in and having nearly 100% of faculty (permanent,visiting, and part-time) participate in bridging engineering education with character educationhas achieved essential learning for us as a team.

Accordingly, the firstPD workshop in August 2022 was preceded by a six-month design phase. During this first phase,the PI and co-PI first worked independently to identify and develop content used from their fieldswith secondary teachers. For PI Bayles, this meant reviewing and selecting content from the NSF-funded INSPIRES curriculum and the PD provided with INSPIRES[4].
