sharing agreement to share student-level databetween our institutions.

education research and engineering education research. Her work involves designing and researching contexts for learning (for students, educators, and faculty) within higher education. Her research draws from perspectives in anthropology, cultural psychology, and the learning sciences to focus on the role of culture and ideology in science learning and educational change. Her research interests include how to: (a) disrupt problematic cultural narratives in STEM (e.g. brilliance narratives, meritocracy, and individualistic competition); (b) cultivate equity-minded approaches in ed- ucational spheres, where educators take responsibility for racialized inequities in student success; and (c) cultivate more ethical future

ethnic groups, Hispanic/Latino students suffer low educationalattainment at all levels, e.g. 18% of all Associates, 12% of all Bachelors, 9% of Masters and 7%of Doctorate degrees [1]. The authors describe multiple contributing factors such asfirst-generation students, the Hispanic cultural value for work ethic and contributing income tothe family, distrust of the American education system, aversion to debt, and a focus on survivalrather than success that is socialized in many working-class Latino children due to poverty issuesand low-income levels. Twenty-five years of lower STEM degree completions despite growingenrollment, along with higher education costs, lack of preparedness [2], and not feeling welcomeon campus [3] contribute to the equity
