paper introduces work in progress on an early-stage Design and Development Study for theNational Science Foundation’s (NSF’s) Broadening Participation in Engineering program. In2022, a university, a nonprofit, and a research organization launched the STEM Excellence inEngineering Equity (SEEE) project with two goals: 1. Advance understanding of an instructional methodology for developing equitable learning environments (ELEs) in high school STEM classrooms; and 2. Examine the effects of a PD program to enhance and promote this methodology and the emerging practices.The objectives of the work were set as follows: 1. Integrate four research-based and practitioner-tested educational equity constructs for the classroom into a program
