The Board developed a proposal for a66 course on diversity, equity, and inclusion, complete with the class’s structure, learning67 objectives, and a weekly outline of lesson resources. Though MAE wanted to offer this course,68 there were no available faculty members in the department able to teach it. The University of69 Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science features an embedded program called70 Science and Technology in Society (STS). Scholars in this department, primarily social71 scientists, specialize in teaching engineering ethics. The STS program offers courses at the72 undergraduate level that attend to conversations about DEI, but does not

Moreover, our study follows the ethical considerationsadopted by other researchers to conduct social media analysis of users' posts [15]–[17]. To analyzequalitative aspects, we conducted a manual thematic analysis [18]. We developed the codes usingan empirical bottom-up approach based on grounded theory [19]. In our initial analysis of theposts, we identified the codes. We also used human coding to extract a codebook, including topicsabout work-related concerns among Neurodiverse users. The code identification is based on priorwork related to social media analysis [10], [15], [20], [21]5. ResultsBased

In an effort to re-purpose already existing credit hours in the first year, we determined that use ofthe four credit hours dedicated to Graphics (2 cr-hr) and Programming (2 cr-hr) in the first year might affordus a way to both update the learning expectations of these courses, while simultaneously providing aplatform to explore the ME major directly in the first year.The current Learning Outcomes for ENGR1110 Graphics, taught by General and

We will share our experience to showthat an effective way to teach students to solve real world computer vision problems andaccelerate this learning curve, is to present open-ended problems with correspondingfundamental equations for them to use their own intuition and skills to develop novel solutions.In this paper we will document the learning journey of an undergraduate student who wasselected based on exceptional work ethic and a motivation to create.
