Ebony O. McGee is an Assistant Professor of Diversity and Urban Schooling at Vanderbilt University’s Peabody College and a member of Scientific Careers Research and Development Group at Northwestern University. She received her Ph.D. in Mathematics Education from the University of Illinois at Chicago; and she was a National Academy of Education/Spencer Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow and a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow. As a former electrical engineer, she is concerned with sci- ence, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning and participation among historically marginalized students of color. Her research focuses on the role of racialized experiences and biases in STEM educational and

For example, dynamic interactions occur between both faculty members and students,as well as students with their peers in the classroom. The model posits that a deeper awareness ofthese variable and critical interaction patterns is valuable for the shaping of students’ uniquelearning experiences. Further, it serves to foster the importance of being aware of students’ andone’s own unique background, experiences, and social identities and how this influences theteaching decisions that faculty make, as well as how the classroom experience is received bystudents.

Reframingthe seminar as a research group meeting will allow the faculty members to focus more onproviding opportunities to grow as a researcher and develop professionally. For example, facultymembers have explored hosting a session to discuss how to become an interdisciplinary scholar,and students are now regularly bringing work (grant proposals, abstracts, talks) to share with oneanother for feedback – and consequently deepening their awareness of one another’s fields. Byexplicitly discussing with students how to think interdisciplinarily and how to conduct researchacross disciplines, students will be more likely to develop a functional understanding of theinterdisciplinary space.We

inhigher education highlights the critical need for change agents—individuals within academia andoutside of it willing to enact a transformation in STEM education at the curricular, institutional,and national levels. A core piece of ensuring a change in educational systems is the ability of theseagents to exercise their agency (i.e., free will or choice to act). However, the dominant norms inhigher education can limit opportunities for students, faculty members, or higher educationadministrators to enact their agency [3], [4]. A deeper understanding of how agency is defined andused in this context for research and policy changes can provide useful ways of catalyzing changein engineering education.Agency is an emerging theory within engineering
