integrate research-based pedagogies into their teaching. Byunderstanding how GTA identities evolve, this study contributes to the creation of more effectivePD programs that support GTAs as they transition into skilled educators.IntroductionGraduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) play a pivotal role in undergraduate STEM education,serving as instructors in laboratories and recitation sections of large introductory courses. GTAsnot only deliver instructional content but also support student engagement and foster activelearning strategies that are vital for effective education. Structured professional development (PD)programs, such as pre-semester workshops, are often implemented to help GTAs navigate theirteaching responsibilities, improve their

backwards design principles alongside Universal Designfor Learning [39], our program is distinctive in its dual innovation: the reverse engineeringdevelopment approach and deliberate alignment with faculty professional developmentprogramming. Recent applications of backwards design in STEM education have shown promisein specific disciplines, such as molecular biology course-based undergraduate researchexperiences [40] and chemistry laboratory instruction [41], but few programs have applied thisapproach specifically to graduate student inclusive teaching preparation across STEM fields. Wefind this particularly useful, as we are providing professional development to individuals (bothfaculty and graduate students) in instructional or instructional
