they have the interview with the professor.The interview with the professor involves a dialogue tree that allows the participant to choosehow they wish to respond in real-time in the conversation. This ability, coupled with theparticipant having Becky’s vantage and mirrored body movements, enables participants to feelmore immersed as the actual character. Although the evolution of conversation is dependentupon the selections of the participant, there are key statements made by the professor that areindependent of the participant’s response. These statements reflect what is constant in allinteractions. Specifically, all constants in the dialogue involve at least one of the followingconcepts—(P)rejudice, (R)acism, (I)mplicit bias, (S)exism, (M
institutionalizing the entrepreneurial mindset (EM),improving and expanding evidence-based pedagogical strategies in capstone courses, andcreating a faculty Community of Practice. To effectively institutionalize the entrepreneurialmindset and expand evidence-based pedagogical practices in capstone courses, professionaldevelopment was provided in conjunction with coaching sessions. This format aimed to provideaccountability for faculty participants, offer opportunities to strategize how the innovation(s)would be implemented in a contextualized setting, and shift the attitudes and practices of thecapstone faculty.Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) outlines an individual change model that describes thefive stages individuals follow towards adoption of an

The purpose of thegroup was to familiarize participants recent research in STEM teaching and learning and toprovide them with the knowledge and support to implement new evidence-based strategies intheir classrooms. The guidance given to each group by the project leadership was thatparticipants were expected to implement a new strategy in their course(s) and document thechange in a design memo. These memos include why they chose a particular strategy, how theyimplemented it, what they learned and how they would adjust it for future use, and any tips orpotential pitfalls others should be aware of when implementing the

high need for assessment in change projects is often paired with a low prevalenceof formal assessment activity (Beach et al., 2016). To avoid this, a structured approach toassessment should be used from the very beginning, and conducted as an integral component ofthe entire project. During planning, assessment of “readiness for change” is critical (Reeves,2009; Lehman, Greener, and Simpson, 2002; Combe, 2014; Lynch & Smith, 2016). Movingthrough the project, assessment plans should be mindful of Banta et al.’s (1996) principle ofassessment stating that “Assessment requires attention to outcomes, but also and equally to theexperiences that lead to those outcomes”. To do this, Hall (2013) argues that direct assessment ofthe extent of
teaching experiences across all spaces. His focus on the user experience and data, has led to development and adoption of design strategies that measure learning and teaching efficacies across his service in various institutions of higher education. A geophysicist by academic training, he began to design multimedia applications for teaching and learning in the late 1990’s, developing his first online course in 1996. Since then, he has helped a few hundred faculty from varied disciplines develop hybrid and online courses. He has also taught traditional, hybrid and online courses ranging in size from 28 to 250. He is also co-developer of a Digital Academy which c American Society for Engineering

We will continue to evaluate the data from additional coursestaught by the faculty participants to provide more robust and definitive answers to the researchquestions. This data combined with additional RTOP classroom observations will providegreater insights into the impact of the faculty development program on low-SES engineeringstudents and will be presented at forthcoming ASEE conferences and through additionalpublications.AcknowledgementsThe authors gratefully acknowledge the support of this work by the National ScienceFoundation under Grant No. 1524527.References 1) Freeman, S., Eddy, S.

felt they did not have enoughinformation to interpret them. During their exit interview, researchers shared with faculty members theprofiles that emerged from the cluster analysis and discussed the findings from the TPI and COPUSobservations. They were also given references to articles on Stains et al.’s (2018) profile analysis for moreinformation on each profile. Faculty clearly placed value on the clusters, but longed for more detail.For example, one faculty member said,” [It was] nice to know I wasn’t in cluster 1 or 2, but how to interpret…?...I don’t know that I want every class period to be cluster 7….[It’s] not clear yet on the differences between the profiles other than student centered is better than interactive or didactic.

, etc.). Ideas to supportthese needs that have been discussed include (1) developing workshops that can provide moreclarity on the promotion process and even personalized feedback, (2) forming a mentoringnetwork through event(s), (3) developing resources that can support good mentors, and (4)having more informal networking events across the schools to support peer-mentoring. None ofthese ideas explicitly involve the creation of a formal mentor program at this point, which wouldrequire considerable resources. However, the ideas are all aligned with supporting mentorshipacross the institution and can serve as an intermediate step for eventually formalizing mentorshipacross the college of engineering. The master mentors are now in the process of

Communicating clear goals and objectives and sharing a detailed agenda that outlined the process and expectations ahead of time helped everyone start on the same page. Flexibility in the process is needed when additional relevant issues emerge. Use facilitation practices to leverage members’ expertise and skills to keep the entire group on track and help each other.ReferencesAmbrose, S., Bridges, M.W., DiPietro, M., Lovett, M.C., & Norman, M.K.

cases, faculty workingin the incubator become overloaded in their roles and reprioritize their commitments, causing them totemporarily or permanently abandon their SOTL projects. In these situations, we are often tempted topick up where the faculty member(s) left off and continue developing the grant proposal or publication.However, doing so would conflict with one of Meadows’ principles: Go for the good of the whole.Continuing to advance the project in absence of the faculty member(s) takes away from time we couldbe spending to help other faculty members develop, ultimately detracting from our efforts as a whole.Accordingly, we have developed skills in self-reflection to recognize when our interests conflict withthose of faculty, and in self

research is needed to investigatehow teams will continue to experience the characteristics of a guiding coalition as they shift andchange throughout their change process. These findings are limited to data collected from theRED team members; it is beyond the scope of this project to collect data from individualsexternal to the team, though that would increase the validity of the findings. Next steps for thisresearch include disaggregating our analysis to investigate how contextual differences acrossteams impact the team formation processes—while some of these differences emerged in ourinitial analysis, further investigation is warranted.References[1] J.
