Research Workforce Working Grouprequired IDPs for their postdoctoral researchers (Austin) [8] and the National ScienceFoundation included the IDP as one of the tools in their career development website [9]. As wecan see, both NSF and NIH, as well as many universities, have embraced the IDP as a keycomponent for enhancing STEM graduate and postdoctoral programs. In fact, in studies ofreflection as pedagogy the IDP is considered a self-reflection tool. Researchers such as McMillanand Hearn have reported that it enhances self-motivation and achievement [10].Taking all these factors into consideration, and the fact that there is not a similar tool as ‘myIDP’for undergraduates, we developed an instrument customized to fit the goals of bachelor's

Students sense of belonging relates to their reflection on current experiences andgreater affective components in their majors, like- how comfortable they feel in engineeringclassroom or college.

Teachers’ awareness of students’ cultures can betterequip them to interact with diverse students [12]. The plurality in culturally responsive teachingtheory reflects cultural synergies within the class, developed from the notion that race, class,culture, ethnicity, and gender shape the diverse students’ learning styles, requiring multipleinstructional strategies for the common learning outcomes [12]. Therefore, cultural synergies canbe viewed from three aspects.

Throughout the fall 2019 semester, I began to question the ways in which I hadbeen recruited and channeled, as a woman with an interest in science and math, into studyingengineering. Upon taking an introductory STS course, I was introduced to reflecting criticallyabout engineering as a field of study. This led me to enroll in a graduate seminar, EngineeringStudies, which provided me with a much deeper introduction to STS-inflected studies ofengineering, including engineering education. During this time, my professor, along with apostdoctoral fellow, were co-PIs for a study of student experiences in engineering education andhad already convened a group of undergraduate students who were in the process of interviewingtheir peers
