practice, a skill set that is essential forstudents pursuing faculty careers, may also be a useful metric for graduate training more broadly.In the initial design of the course, we chose to move away from traditional assignments andassessments (such as quizzes and tests) to maximize the accessibility of the course. Given thatour course participants are graduate students with research responsibilities, reducing the timeburden for this course was a top priority. Still, we believe that utilizing a limited number ofungraded assessments will increase opportunities for active recall and spaced repetition without asignificant increase in participant time burden.For (3), one of the driving motivators in the inception of the course was creating

website, and synchronous virtual professional development activities that canenable best practices for virtual communities of practices as described above. In particular, thefollowing research questions were posed: 1) who participates in virtual collaboration eventsaimed at facilitating collaborative learning of various BME education and professionaldevelopment topics?, and 2) what are the demographics of the participants of these events interms of title, role, and institution? Results of this study aim to elucidate whether a BME virtualcommunity of practice can break down the aforementioned professional silos through onlineasynchronous and synchronous knowledge transfer.Methods:The Biomedical Engineering Education Community (BEEC) [21] is a

Future surveys and evidence of intern work can help qualify and quantifywhich of these elements may be impactful to URM students.This case study of a high school summer research internship adds to the evidence that researchinternship experiences contribute to STEM interest and identity. However, the data here revealthat interviewing parents can give additional details on home STEM talk and can supply crucialevidence of early family STEM recognition, a powerful element in the development STEMidentity. This study also indicates a role for parental involvement in the design of STEM highschool research experiences, as their participation may

(and throughout the world) could be helpful albeitwithout sacrificing technical degree requirements. As a result, inclusion of arts within thecurriculum may aid in counteracting the reduced enrollment trend and broaden participation inengineering [10], [11]. Studies indicate arts inclusion directly impacts recruitment and retentionof females and underrepresented minorities [11]. Without changes to current higher educationengineering curricula, the lackluster innovation trend in many global economies is likely tocontinue. Unfortunately, limited literature exists that showcases best practices for integratinginnovation and entrepreneurship into mid-level engineering coursework from a STEAMperspective.1.2 Current Approaches and Associated
