them what events should be remembered, how theyshould be remembered, and why they should be remembered [14]. Parents instill in theirchildren habits and methods for remembering that help propagate important aspects of theirculture. Indeed, the “I” often internalizes values and beliefs from important others, including notonly parents but also friends and mentors [15], [18]. As Thorne puts it, “families and friendscollude in self-making” [16], [10].Life stories can also be influenced by more intentional interventions. Studies have shown thatpeople who write their life stories can experience an increase in self‐esteem [17], improvedmental health and well-being [18], [19], and a greater sense of agency and control over their lives[20].

ADHD and the shortcomings of the current education system that puts thispopulation of students with significant potential for innovation at a substantial risk of academicfailure and disinterest in pursuing higher education. Overall, the major observations from thisREU were that: given the right environment, i.e. niche, students with ADHD can thrive;engineering research can be a stimulating and ideal environment for students with ADHD; andthe opportunity to learn and interact with peers with ADHD can provide a rich and meaningfulexperience and help their confidence and ability as learners. It was noted that the educationsystem needs to move from the idea of ‘accommodating’ for some, to differentiating for all.Dissemination of these impactful

Early in thesemester, students tended to report some difficulty managing conflicts related to team tasks, butby the end of the semester, significantly fewer teams did so.We also describe an asset-based modification we made to the teams in the senior capstone
