This paper shares in detail the methods in which the mechanics courseswere redesigned and the influence of a women teaching team on the students. End-of-termcourse evaluations were used to assess the success of the projects as well as enhance futurecourses. This paper aims to investigate and comment through multiple cases, the ways in whichthe diversification of a teaching team at the University of Waterloo in an undergraduateengineering classroom affects both the delivery of the course material and students’ perceptionof learning.BackgroundResearch has found that the lack of diversity in science, technology, engineering and math(STEM

Students involvedin robotics activities and competitions show an increase in attitude toward science2 and possess agreater awareness of engineering careers3. The largest high school robotics competition focusedon inspiring students in STEM areas is the FIRST Robotics Competition. An important part ofthe FIRST program is mentoring. In general, mentoring is believed to lead to high levels ofsuccess in both personal and professional endeavors4. With respect to FIRST, mentoring is givena high level of importance and is attributed with a large part to the program’s success5. This study investigates the role of mentors in eleven different robotics teams participatingin the FIRST

Learning theimportance of testing and planning are valuable lessons that many of the studentstake away from this first semester of senior design, but many equally importantdesign and engineering project lessons are skipped. Most significant of theseomissions is that students are not yet introduced to a true, team-oriented workingsituation. Even though they are grouped in two-student “teams”, most issues ofteam dynamics cannot arise in such a small group. Another limitation of this firstsemester project is that students work in one narrow technology. Students are notchallenged by any significant multidisciplinary requirements.
