Specifically, theworkshop explored existing and potential collaborations between extramural initiatives that support success inengineering education pathways for individuals from historically marginalized populations as well as universitiesseeking to recruit and retain these students in undergraduate and advanced engineering education, including asfaculty. Following the workshop, attendees were invited to apply for a mini-grant that would support either a newcollaboration or further existing collaborative work. Three mini-grants were awarded, with projects that addressedK-12 education and transition

Followed by the purpose of our work, the methods, the results, and our future work.● Neurodiversity describes the idea that people experience and interact with the world around them in many different ways; there is no one "right" way of thinking, learning, and behaving [1]. Students with ADHD or other neurodiversity such as autism, dyslexia, or obsessive-compulsive disorder are an invisible minority [2], and

Graduate students frequently teach for a semester or two before they graduate. As aresult, many introductory programming instructors do not have the time or resources to iterate andenhance their pedagogical practice. As student interest in computing grows, introductoryprogramming class sizes are expanding, requiring institutions to provide several sections of thesame course, resulting in variations in instruction quality and student learning gains.Our ANON project is

While in some instances this can be a straightforward task, there are times whenthe role of a mentor can be physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing. Some students have aharder time being able to grasp the research method or process, and it can lead to moredrawbacks than benefits to the project.

Design Experiences for Future Engineers in Chemistry Laboratory AbstractOur approach to general chemistry laboratory for engineers in our NSF-funded IUSE project(DUE-1625378) involves the use of design challenges (DCs), an innovation that uses authenticcontext and practice to transform traditional tasks. These challenges are scaled-down engineeringproblems related to the NAE Grand Challenges that engage students in collaborative, team-basedproblem solving via the modeling process. With features aligned with professional engineeringpractice, DCs are hypothesized to support student motivation for the task as well as for theprofession.
