education. The presented findings emanate from the fourth phase of anextensive multiphase mixed-method research project. The project seeks to elucidate theimpediments that underrepresented students, particularly women, face in pursuing graduateengineering degrees and the potential solutions to overcome those barriers.Our methodology in this phase encompassed a comprehensive mixed-method survey, garneringresponses from over 600 undergraduate and graduate engineering students within the Faculty ofEngineering. Preliminary analyses revealed that the decision to pursue graduate studies isinfluenced by intersectional identity variables.In the sphere of engineering education, the pursuit of diversity, inclusion, and equity has longbeen recognized as

The study on thethree adolescent boys created a scenario centered on engineering design, for which funds ofknowledge was drawn upon, while the study on college students pulled from their existingengineering-related experiences to elicit funds of knowledge. However, both studies supportedcommunity-based design projects as valuable methods for drawing on students’ funds ofknowledge.Referring back to our research question—How is the funds of knowledge framework being utilizedto understand engineering concepts at the secondary and post-secondary level? —both examplescentered on the

marginalized groups continue to pursue graduate education. In Golde’s work on socialization in graduate school, the first year of doctoral education isbroken into four tasks of transition. The first is intellectual mastery, in which a student completescoursework in their field. The second task is learning how graduate school operates and whatthey should expect from their life in graduate school as a student. Similarly, the third task isdescribed as learning how their projected profession works and determining how they feel aboutmoving in this direction post-graduation. Finally, the fourth task is integrating themselves intothe department and their cohort [1]. The program described in this work is designed to primarilyassist students with this

critical reflection of the learner on the experience. Unlessembedded within a course as a service-learning activity (e.g. [13]), there may not be structuredreflection. This is particularly true in co-curricular activities, where advisors may worry thatformal reflection would deter college students from participating. However, the reflection couldoccur informally via a group discussion.Giles and Eyler [11] cite Dewey’s [12] four criteria for projects to be truly educative. The fourcriteria are: generate interest, worthwhile intrinsically, problems that demand new information,and cover a considerable time span. K-12 activities are often designed to be fun, so they arelikely to generate interest on behalf of both the college student and K-12 kids

However,achieving a “net-zero energy building” concept for existing buildings has its challenges in anurban environment where private and/or public space around the building considered is limited,in addition to the inherent energy challenges associated with urban multi-story buildings. Whilethe most achievable task would be energy efficiency improvements in the operation of thebuilding
