because culture influences what constitutesintelligence and intelligent acts [9, 10]. Indeed, conceptions of “smartness” in school often caterto analytical abilities, while ignoring other types of intelligence, such as creative or practicalabilities [11]. This emphasis on analytical abilities is magnified even further in engineeringschool, where math and engineering science dominate the curriculum. This cultural norm ofvaluing analytical intelligence above all else reflects white, middle class constructions ofintelligence. This reality contributes to the exclusionary narratives about who belongs inengineering as the qualities that are revered in academia (e.g., brilliance, rigor, seriousness,rationality, objectivity, etc.) are all traditionally

Inengineering majors, men typically outnumber women, as reflected in a 2017 report whichrevealed only 21.3% of bachelor’s degrees in engineering were earned by women [14]. Despitewomen earning fewer engineering degrees than men, a positive correlation between being femaleand graduation rates has been found [3]. Women frequently have been reported to be more likelythan men to earn a bachelor’s degree once enrolled, regardless of the time frame needed to earnthe degree [15] [16] [17].

changes in teaching and learning have transformed the foundationof education. Over time, the role of the teacher has evolved, from the transmitter of knowledge(traditional education) to facilitator [1]–[3]. Dewey [4] argued that people learn by doing,students should be exposed to experiential activities that promote reflection. Students are nowplaced in the center playing the main role as they are the ones who actively construct their ownknowledge through the tools that the teacher provides and social interactions [5].Active learning has been defined in different ways, Bonwell & Eison [6] provided a practicaldefinition as "any activity that involves students doing things and thinking about what they aredoing."

This turned out to have a negative effect on the efficiency of communication and project progress.
