Chicana feminism offersa framework for understanding and addressing the experiences and challenges faced by Latinaengineering and computing students. Here are practical ways engineering educators might apply Chicanafeminist principles in working with Latina engineering and computing students: • Valuing cultural heritage and identity: Encourage students to explore and celebrate their cultural heritage and identity and help them understand the ways in which their cultural experiences

Thechatbot helps students find course materials, answer general inquiries, schedule meetings withprofessors and teaching assistants, and much more. Students require assistance during their timeat university.

Theimplementation studied was an effective proof of concept, and future iterations will include a fully immersiveprogramming interface within a virtual environment to allow collaboration over shared tasks and resources, evenwhen geographically separated. Future iterations will also incorporate accessibility and inclusivity to a greater degreeby leveraging Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to integrate the tool effectively into the curriculum of anundergraduate engineering course.Keywords: Virtual Reality, robotics, Engineering Education

This repeatedly highlights the disparity of cultural diversity in manyuniversities, and subsequently, white-collar jobs.Another problem lies in the historically Eurocentric curriculum which ignores most minorities andtheir cultures [8]. This causes a mistrust between the historically Caucasian majority and peopleof color. In an act of self-determination, Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCU) were established,with most hosting two-year degrees [9]. The 39 TCUs primarily serve geographically isolatedpopulations, hours away from other mainstream postsecondary institutions.

In one initiative called “A’s for All (as time and interestallow)”, students are given the support to achieve the proficiency they want (not necessarily an A)as long as they are willing to put in the time and effort, thus providing students more control

how the factors in a curriculum affect students and their successin engineering by answering two research questions (RQ). (1) What, if any, demographics factorsinfluence a student’s engineering GPA? (2) How does the course level affect the performance ofstudents in demographic groups shown to be significant in RQ1? Herein, it is shown that theprogression through an academic career affects students differently based on their demographics.Male students of color are shown to be the group most negatively impacted by certain effects.This work seeks to counter the common anecdotal fallacy that academic preparedness is theprimary driver between disparities in success as it is observed that gaps widen and narrow withtime through the academic levels

Educators must carefully consider the needs of today's graduates in order to properlyprepare students for the demands of this work.
