Paper ID #25779Culturally Responsive Pedagogy in an Engineering Summer Intervention Pro-gram (Research)Dr. Tonisha B. Lane, University of South Florida Dr. Lane’s research agenda broadly examines diversity, equity, and inclusion in postsecondary educa- tion with the objective of advancing inclusive and transformative policies and practices. Her primary research strand investigates the experiences and outcomes of underrepresented groups in science, tech- nology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Using qualitative methodologies, she has explored access and success for underserved students of color in STEM and STEM

beendeemed necessary (Cook & Campbell, 1979). Therefore, the assessment of the research center-based mentoring program described above was designed with these considerations in mind.2.2. Assessment of the present mentoring studyFirst, both the initial 4-year duration of the program and the fact that data is being collected atmultiple and regular intervals ensures the availability of longitudinal data that may in turn helpdetermine the amount of time it takes for mentoring effects to emerge and the length of time thatthese effects persist (Jacobi, 1991). Moreover, data is being acquired for both a treatment group –URM engineering students participating in the research center-based mentoring program tobroaden participation in engineering (BPE

significant pieces of it are and what it all means. And being able to think through a problem very critically and they just retrained my mind on how to think about a problem. Whereas before I was less efficient on how I was solving problems.She continues to describe engineering items she learned including optimization and problemsolving on her own.In addition to the confidence statements, cohort two students responded to statements indicatingtheir plans to pursue a degree in rehabilitation engineering. At the beginning and end of theprogram Erica strongly agreed or agreed with the following statements: • I plan to continue to pursue opportunities to learn more about engineering and computing in rehabilitation and assistive
