It took a major sense of empathy to grasp the challenge that Brazilian students were havingfully. To communicate in your non-native language all day with fluent speakers is draining, compoundedby the stress of meeting project deadlines; students must take a step back and reflect upon the struggles ofothers. Additionally, the Brazilian mentor was another interesting dynamic that must be navigated. Theywere the head point of communication for all case studies and relayed sensitive information about theCPFL’s internal struggles. Navigating these foreign relationships effectively determined the group’ssuccess. Being able to synthesize

African educators who wantto enact CSP should consider observations of their students of paramount importance. Thisemphasis is rooted in cultural (i.e., African) perspectives and aligns with the paradigmaticapproach of CSP, promoting observation as a way of knowing. 11. Reflects on Teaching Practices The ability of teachers to self-reflect on teaching practices is an essential component of the CSPframework [13]. By reflecting on their instructional practices, teachers examine their actionswithin the classroom and the underlying philosophies and beliefs that power their decisions andactions.

The students jointly chose two projects, performednecessary research, and designed prototypes to meet the design needs of their respectivecommunities. This course was not originally conducted as an engineering educationresearch project; thus, this is a retrospective summary. Using a promotional video thatthe USGA students produced about the course and the course reflection paragraph thateach USGA student wrote, we performed a word frequency analysis. Based on the wordfrequency analysis, we conclude that the students’ identification as engineers increased,students connected their academic engineering to real-world problems

The goal should be not just to collectobjective data with validated psychometric instruments such as the IDI, but rather to obtain morenuanced insights into the students’ study abroad experience and processing of their sojournsabroad through qualitative analysis of student reflections. Similarly, Cohen et al [10] argue thatsolely relying on quantitative assessment may not bring to light important nuances of thecomplex experience abroad. Likewise, Streitwieser and Light [11] call for placing emphasis onindividual student perceptions and reflections.

There is often a lack of consensus orunderstanding regarding the definition of DEI activities, who should participate in them, howSTEM teachers perceive their involvement, and what level of support is appropriate.Educators are also concerned that DEI work is disproportionately shouldered

Individuals under authoritative governments oftenregard educators and textbooks as the primary sources of unquestionable knowledge, influencingthe shaping of their personal epistemological beliefs. The same concept applies to the culture inwhich an individual experiences. For example, when considering Youn's study in Korea, theauthor emphasizes the contrast of the cultures between the two countries in individualism-collectivism, power-distance, uncertainty-avoidance, and masculinity-femininity.

AE, where the researcher acts as both participant and researcher,oftentimes gets critiqued for being self-absorbing and mere naval-gazing. To overcome thelimitation of AE, in Collaborative Autoethnography (CAE), a team of researchers workscollectively to collect, analyze, and interpret data to “gain a meaningful understanding ofsociocultural phenomena reflected in their autobiographical data” [11, p. 24].
