in the number of units and modes of instruction for individual courses. • There are many university level committees making decisions (common courses committee, university conversion committee, undeclared majors committee, calendar committee) that effect the program. Get faculty to serve on those committees. • There was no formal methodology used. The program did prepare a reflection report looking at five other programs before starting.Our a priori expectation was that this is a parallel process and a once-in-a-generation opportunityto take a fresh holistic look at the curriculum. It was surprising that both programs interviewedtold us not to do that. There was not time in the conversion schedule to do that

Course scores for each report, as apercentage of the total possible score, and the percentage of graduate students on each team werecomputed as well in order to compare the final data from the two semesters in the sample. Two-sample t-tests assuming unequal variances were used to look for statistical differences betweenoutcomes for the Summer 2021 and Summer 2022 data.

areversed in this and many other tools that are far more advanced?Dr. Watford later comments on how curricular change does not need to happen all at once.Indeed, change an assignment, change a module, do this over time. She also reflects on howstudents do not do their homework. Why? Because faculty do not have the time to grade theassignments. She goes on to suggest the use of digital technologies to not only submit homework,but to grade it. She is certain that the practice of homework and feedback can only help. She alsogave the example of using data analytics to assess student performance. Again, use thetechnology! Dr. Watford also offered that computer science students could take on how todevelop electronic homework, how to grade it, and more

According to Strayhorn [4], a student’s sense of belonging has beenfound to be related to the retention, specifically, of women students majoring in STEM fields.Literature focusing on sense of belonging for women engineering majors has shown that womenfeel a lesser sense of belongingness than their men counterparts, contributing to a lower rate ofretention for women in engineering

As researchers have explicitly stated that individual attitudes toward diversity, personal experiences, and the presence or absence of specific practices do not reflect diversity climate [28], evidence of this climate was limited to emergent themes from qualitative studies [67][75][83].

Black males and females construct their STEM identities as they develop theirgender identities. Collins [10] notes how racial identity development and gender identity begin to formbefore the development of any STEM interest. The relationship between Black students' gender-basedracial identity and their interest and persistence in STEM is complex.

These values tend to reflect the interests andneeds of those who have historically held power in society [16, 20, 22].The idea that technology is not neutral and is designed by humans also brings to questiondeterministic narratives of technology. Technological determinism assumes that technologydevelops in a self propelling fashion, where new technology is inevitable and humans mustsimply accept and adapt to it [23]. This framing absolves the creators of any responsibility inanticipating harm and designing to mitigate the negative impacts of the technology they design[17].
