This structure was approximately 15”x15”x15” in size and was constructedprimarily from form board readily available from a local hardware store. The pieces for thewalls and roof were cut and glued together so that the house could be instrumented with the IoTdevices that the teachers received during the summer workshop.

are widely recognized as problem solvers [1]. Solving problems commonly includesworking collaboratively in design teams to generate solutions to real-world problems [2].Throughout the engineering design process, engineers make decisions about how to understandthe problem, design solutions, evaluate solutions, and then implement the solution that bestaligns with user needs. Many of the decisions made in the engineering design process haveimplications for the well-being of members of our society and our globe. As such, undergraduateeducation should facilitate holistic development of engineering students’ ability to makedecisions in ill-structured settings such as design [3, 4].

IntroductionThe motivation for differentiated instruction (DI) is based on the observation that any classenvironment will consist of learners of different abilities, interests, learning styles and culturalbackgrounds. This implies that learners will respond to instruction differently, and the one-size-fits-all teaching approach, commonly utilized in college classrooms, is less than optimal from thestandpoint of student learning. DI acknowledges the diverse characteristics of the individuallearner by designing learning experiences that are adapted to meet the unique learning needs of astudent with the expectation of improving student success compared to the one-size-fits-allparadigm.

More specifically, the U.S. will need to increase the number of students whoreceive undergraduate STEM degrees by about 34% annually over current rates to meet that need[1]. The recruitment and retention of more ethnic minorities into STEM fields is needed to assistin closing the gap between the current supply and demand for STEM professionals. Minoritieshave historically been underrepresented in STEM. In fact, underrepresented minorities (AfricanAmerican, Native American and Hispanic) earned just 18.9% of all bachelor’s degrees awarded

Forty years of social scienceresearch have shown the prevalence of implicit bias against women and the ways in which suchbiases impact decisions in hiring, performance evaluations, and compensation. However, similarstudies are scarce in India.Extremely few women in India were earning engineering degrees in the 1980s. Compared to theUnited States, where about 10% of engineering degrees were earned by women, less than 2% ofengineering degrees were earned by women in India [1, 2].

These prior results suggest that at least two responses are predominant,namely: 1) rejection of mastery learning as “unfamiliar”/“unfair”, or “lazy on the part ofthe professor”; or 2) welcoming of mastery learning as “empowering”, or “an opportunityfor self-ownership of learning on the part of the student”.
