Re-thinking and re-designing our courses and curricula to provide flexibility and accommodate students’ needs is ofvital importance. Thus, the re-design of the Statics course to accommodate neurodiverse studentshas the potential to be beneficial for all.With the accelerating change of pace in the 21st century, Cropley [7] stated that

lesson development by providing ideasfor creating assignments (for both before and after class), discussion points, activities, and otherlesson materials to teach undergraduate and graduate students about the effects of infrastructureinequities and how to mitigate negative effects. The framework will provide a solid foundationfor faculty to take a case study or historical example and create lesson objectives, design studentexercises to be used before, during, or after a class session, and create materials to supportstudent learning. The CIT-E community of practice is also applying this framework to createseveral lessons using case studies that are currently under development and will be available foruse by any faculty member in the

, factors like campus social climate [9], academicmentoring [9], [10], and racial microaggressions [11] can damage their sense of belonging andaffect their future in engineering.We base our definition of Engineering Identity on Hazari et al.’s [12] definition of physicsidentity as the interaction of Recognition, Performance, Interest and Competence in the field ofEngineering. This concept was further investigated by Kendall et al. [13], who studied factorsinfluencing engineering identity of Latinx students by including personal and social identities tobetter understand the development of Latinx students as engineers. An example of the impact ofpersonal and social identities on engineering identity is the research conducted by Revelo aboutthe
