of PD, including 5 days in the summer and 3 days during the academicyear. Teachers implemented 3 culturally relevant engineering design (CRED) tasks that theydesigned for their own classrooms. A CRED framework was adapted from Guerra et al.’s [3]engineering design process to explicitly include connections to community, culture, and placewithin each design stage (Identify, Describe, Generate, Embody, Finalize). The PD program wasbuilt on a theoretical framework using Bandura’s [4] Social Cognitive Theory to develop self-efficacy and collective efficacy within the teacher cohort. Teachers were given tools, practice,and support to develop their own CRED tasks. The cohort model provided opportunities for peermentorship and on-going collaboration

This expanded participant group willcontribute to our extended data collection efforts, and they will be extended invitations toparticipate in our upcoming two-day summer workshop, with participation support facilitatedthrough the NSF grant.

Overall, there were more comments andconcerns from participants related to structural changes than to relational or to transformativechanges.It was also the case that some of participants’ observations suggest some porousness in theborders of the Kania et al. model. For example, participants viewed guidance from theirinstitution’s office of general counsel as a resource, but in doing so, that office becomes a strongerseat of power, therefore

While 40% of the GEAR-SR cohort participated ininterviews, additional interviews may be conducted to ensure a broader representation ofparticipant backgrounds and experiences. Investigating the specific elements of the GEARprogram that most significantly contribute to student outcomes will inform programenhancements and exploring the differential impacts of the GEAR program on students fromdiverse backgrounds, including those traditionally marginalized in engineering, could providevaluable insights.References[1] Alvarado, C., Villazon, S., & Tamer, B.

vehicles of expression thathave supported the rise of employee activism (Yamada, 1998). Forums and community groupshave been set up in many companies to provide employees with the opportunity to speak theirmind on issues of importance. Google has historically been known for a culture of openness andtransparency which has been identified as a generating source for the rise of employee activismwithin the company. Google’s slightly longer history with protest has offered inspiration toemployees at other companies, and in fact Google walkout organizers have offered theirknowledge to leaders in other companies.BibliographyAlexander, J., Jarratt, S. & Welch, N.

As an NSF S-STEM award, the SD-FIRST program allowed for 15 scholars in the firstcohort and awarded $5,000 per year, renewable for 4 years, per scholar. During this time, theteam was able to work with the SD Mines Center for Alumni Relations and Advancement(CARA) to secure a donation to the school in the form of a gift of 10 additional scholarshippositions (a total of $5,000 per year, renewable for 4 years, for 10 scholars). With this generousdonation, the SD-FIRST program was able to award scholarships to 25 total students. All 59applications were reviewed by
