Engineering Education at Virginia Tech, where she directs the Vir- ginia Tech Engineering Communications Center (VTECC). Her research focuses on communication in engineering design, interdisciplinary communication and collaboration, design education, and gender in engineering. She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring communication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work includes studies on the teaching and learning of communication, effective teaching practices in design education, the effects of differing design pedagogies on

This program was one segment of a comprehensiveon-going initiative to serve students and educators from underrepresented communities whichalso includes a professional development program for in-service STEM educators. The programfor educators is ongoing and is designed to provide them with the tools and experiences that arenecessary to offer continued support and specific instruction to their students at their localschools. This paper will serve as an investigation of such a program and detail both the deliveryand specific challenges encountered as well as discuss the solutions that were implemented andlessons learned.Keywords: STEM, pre-college, interdisciplinary engineering
