mid-western university.7 To flip lectures, we utilizedproblem-centered learning combined with group discussions and contextualized lecturing duringregular in-class sessions. Students were instructed to know theories and content by watchingonline video modules before coming to the class, and solve problems with peers inside theclassroom. The design of the instructional model drew on an established framework for activelearning, which includes the Four Practices: (1) anticipating, (2) monitoring, (3) connecting andcontrasting, and (4) contextualized lecturing. The model has been implemented, and willcontinue to be modified through iterative cycles.8In our previous report, we used design-based-research (DBR) methods to study how the

]. Likewise, through the use of course modulescovering topics on self-directed learning [9]-[10]; problem-based curricula [11]-[12];engineering projects [13]; journaling [14]; and reflective writing [15], instructors have monitoredand assessed changes in students’ SDL skills. These approaches were described in studies suchas Fellows et al. [3] that entailed a range of classroom and project activities designed accordingto the Hersey and Blanchard’s Situational Leadership Model [16]. During the activities, students’SDL ability was assessed in Four stages - Dependent (stage 1), Involved, Interested, and Self-Directed (stage 4). Ulseth [17] explored the experiences of students taught using Problem-BasedLearning (PBL) to gain in-depth understanding of the

Facilitatingthe programs collaboratively is in itself a best practice; it allows for an enhanced cohort, peer-to-peer mentoring, and maximization of resources for a sustainable training program designed toincrease the retention and promotion of underrepresented undergraduates in STEM disciplines.Though ELeVATE will only begin in the summer of 2011, its foundations are deep rooted in thesuccess of QoLT’s REU program which has advanced underrepresented students through theSTEM pipeline and delivered a promising model

If the students come well-prepared and theexercises are well-designed, then it is hoped that students will leave the face-to-face time with adeeper understanding of the core concepts, one which they have worked to develop through theirown efforts with the support of their peers and the instructor.The inverted classroom approach has a basis in three well-known principles of the science oflearning: (a) Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development 1, (b) Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning 2,and (c) “How the Brain Learns” and the retention of core material 3.

accommodations, and others were very different. Both groups faced difficultyconversing with instructors and getting critical needs met, like access to recorded lectures.Students also witnessed and experienced ableism regularly [8], which often discouraged themfrom asking for support, a finding that was similarly supported by Goodwin [9]. Someaccommodations frequently failed, like the peer note-taker accommodation, which preventedregistered disabled students from utilizing resources that the university agreed they need tosucceed. This supported the data that there is a measurably lower chance of disabled engineeringstudents using their accommodations compared to their non-STEM peers [10].

, we conducted a literature review as part of a larger study to understand what has beenstudied in EER regarding women’s epistemologies. The purpose of this paper is to explore thelandscape of women’s epistemologies in recent EER. Our guiding research question is: “Howhave women’s epistemologies been studied in published engineering education research?”To begin this literature review, we searched through the ASEE conference proceedings database(also known as PEER) for student women’s epistemologies from 2016 to 2021. We chose thistime frame to focus on current research of epistemologies in EER. The keywords used in thesearch were “Epistemology + Women + Engineering.” We focused on engineering students tohighlight the epistemologies that relate
