), I need to work harder, or excel beyond other men, in order for my input to even be considered as valuable.”One of our goals for the unit was for students to consider whether investigating who participatesin STEM is (or should be) an important part of learning physics. Alyssa answers this question asshe describes the importance of this class to her personally: “This classes addresses tough topics, beyond physical material. While learning quantum mechanics is the primary focus, this is the perfect class to tie in challenging societal norms and stigmas. I say the word “engineer” and an image of a white male almost instantaneously appears in my mind.”For Alyssa, her own awareness of the lack of

Paper ID #33437Inclusive Writing: Pre- and Post-COVID-19Dr. Teresa L. Larkin, American University Teresa L. Larkin is an Associate Professor of Physics Education and Director and Faculty Liaison to the Combined Plan Dual-degree Engineering Program at American University. Dr. Larkin conducts ed- ucational research and has published widely on topics related to the assessment of student learning in introductory physics and engineering courses. Noteworthy is her work with student writing as a learning and assessment tool in her introductory physics courses for non-majors. One component of her research focuses on the role

design toproduce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, welfare,as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors” whereas the ANSAConly requires that the design must meet “desired needs.” With this in mind, we haveimplemented a project that is completed by students at the end of the second semester ofintroductory physics where students are required to follow engineering design principles todesign and build simple speakers that must meet given specifications. In this paper, we discussthe details of the student project specifications, the rubric developed to assess the studentprojects, and show select student projects from the first two cohorts assigned this project.Additionally, we
