This practice has been used extensively within the learning disability (LD) communities to helpstudents advocate for themselves in the creation and implementation of their IndividualEducational Plans (IEPs). A comprehensive review of evidence-based practices for teaching self-advocacy within the LD communities found that there are three critical factors that, whencombined result in increased academic success: empowerment or a sense of agency (havingcontrol over decisions and life events), strong self-awareness (knowing what is right for oneselfand setting goals based on this criteria), and social justice (knowing how to

Within engineering, thepedagogy has been found to be effective in supporting student’s development of coreprofessional competencies [2,3] as well as in serving as a recruitment and retention tool for theprofession among diverse populations [4,5].

Instructors used the nine-step design process described in Goldschmidt andRogers [12]. We acknowledge that there are multiple ways the design process has been presentedin the literature. However, we chose the process from this study because the goals matched ours.Before this project, students had not been trained in the design process during their time in thecourse. We did not collect any information regarding any prior exposure to or training in thedesign process.The nine steps are: 1. Studying the brief 2. Planning the process 3. Collecting information 4.

-faceted perspectives to their work. NSF’s 2018 Strategic Plan highlighted the importance of engineers incorporating diverse perspectives and drawing on multiple disciplines to solve complex problems. Key to meeting these goals is training future engineers to understand the needs, wants, and perspectives of others —in short, engineers must approach their work with empathy. Research at the post-secondary level underscores the role of empathy in engineering, particularly around improving engineers’ communication and relationships with stakeholders, and ultimately resulting in designs that are more responsive and effective to the end user. For this project, empathy is defined as the ability to

Additionally, a literaturereview by Finelli and Borrego suggests that planning strategies can also be effective [10]. Planning strategies are those that an instructor uses to think through an activity and itsimplementation. Some examples of these strategies include using student feedback from aprevious activity or thinking through what did and did not work the last time they usedit. Explanation strategies pertain to how an instructor describes the purpose of the activity aswell as what is expected of students during the activity. This can also refer to how an instructorrelates the activity to the student’s assessments or overall
