Throughout the workshop, teams further developed their plans and gave feedback toand received feedback from at least two other teams.In this paper (written from the perspective of the external evaluators, with contributions frommembers of the planning team), we identify common issues across institutions related to theimplementation and assessment of DEI that might be navigated collaboratively based ondocument analysis and participants’ survey responses. Specifically, we discuss the challengesand supports commonly expressed by event participants

appreciation of informal lunch periods embedded within the session.Although the team questioned the time spent on lunch during the session, our participants felt ithelped them to discuss the content and build community. Participants also reported in both thein-person CoP and online SLG that they were more likely to make changes to their pedagogybecause we asked them to frame each session’s content within one course and to not consider alltheir courses, which could lead to being overwhelmed and reduce chances of pedagogicalchange. As we plan for our next iteration of programming, these lessons learned will reinforceelements that went well.We learned lessons from challenges the team encountered.

Examples were sharedby faculty who had already begun to incorporate sustainability concepts into their courses.During the workshop, the participants planned concrete changes to their own courses anddiscussed changing the curriculum across the 4 years of the undergraduate experience. BackgroundTraditionally, sustainability has not been part of the standard engineering curriculum. Bysustainability we mean meeting human needs (current and future) within planetary boundaries,covering social (including diversity, equity, and inclusion, DEI), environmental, and economicaspects. As an additional challenge, various disciplines across the campus are siloed, so thatstudents in business, the arts, engineering

Even though we are still in the planning stage of faculty program development andonly begun an initial step, we found that the ABCD approach’s focus on faculty assets andcommunity development provides lessons learned for our initial plan to advance engineeringethics education. While our experience of faculty development is situated in engineering ethicsand future work remains to be done to assess the impact of our projects, we suggest the ABCDapproach may be applicable to other types of faculty development programs where knowledge,skills, experience, or professional interests play an important role.BackgroundThis lessons-learned paper presents an ongoing initiative to create faculty development

Our inquiry is therefore guided by tworesearch questions (RQ): RQ1: What challenges do faculty experience when embedding communication skills into engineering curricula? RQ2: What solutions do faculty forward to better embed communication skills into engineering curricula across a range of engineering departments?To explore these questions, we leverage a collaborative inquiry approach as a planned process toenable reflection-on-practice and collective sense-making amongst a community of eight facultymembers tasked with integrating communication skills into engineering curricula across

Purpose of the workshop: Empathy in Equity-focused TeachingAs empathy is a component of the strategic vision of the College of Engineering at the University ofMichigan, this “Teaching with Empathy” workshop can potentially attract many faculty interested inincorporating more equity-focused teaching in their classrooms.

For Participant B, the challenge they experienced before the MACH workshop focusedon working as a graduate assistant for a course that had inherent problems, primarily withgrading. In their interview, Participant B reflected that while they could see that grading in thecourse was “not good,” their position as a GA meant that they didn’t have adequate authority tomake the changes that they saw as necessary: “I don’t feel as if I’m in a

One key benefit of empoweringteachers with technological tools is that it can help level the playing field regardingeducational access.Technology can provide new opportunities for students who may need access to specificresources or information. It facilitates students to attend online lectures/webinars and otherlearning resources from any experts (national/international), thus providing learning beyondboundaries. Another benefit is that technology can make learning more engaging andinteractive for students since they are digital natives [Otto and Strimel, 2022].
