One EDresponded noted a particularly unique internship opportunity: A consulting engineer in the community came to [our makerspace] and asked if we could translate paper plans for an environmental site requiring decommissioning. We linked that person with a sophomore student to do the SolidWorks files and suggested [to the engineer that] they might want to do a 3D printed model that would allow them to ‘war game’ how the site would be dismantled. They hired the student who is doing this project for internship credit, has printed and laser

A very high number of par-ticipants said that the two unique features of CONSIDER approach –anonymity and rounds-basedstructure– helped improve the quality of discussion in their groups (83 and 75% respectively).Their text comments to the reflective questions highlight the importance of the unique features ofCONSIDER.We plan to further evaluate the efficacy of the features of CONSIDER by designing careful ex-periments in coming semesters and using the tool in different engineering classrooms.

As aresult, the oppressed may find out who they really are, how oppressors use and abuse theoppressed and, arguably, how to begin imagining and planning alternatives to oppression.Even though the oppressed may “understand” and “discover” that they are oppressed, they can’tnecessarily reflect on a current state of oppression due to systematic undermining of their corevalues. That is, it takes persistent effort to believe oneself worthy of dignity and a share of socialinfluence when systems of oppression convince the oppressed to believe the contrary, that theydo not matter or deserve regard.45Moreover, the oppressed

This accessible approach helps students to investin their work, which as we argue here, leads to feelings of ownership and belonging. Theimportance of students having agency in designing their own projects was particularly evident inthe final modules. In future work, we plan to investigate ways to provide students with moreagentive opportunities in the Swarmathon.

At a higher level theywould follow voltages/signals through the circuit with a multimeter or oscilloscope. Each of thefour oscillator circuits needed for pitch and volume heterodyning should produce a highfrequency output and many Theremin designs specify the typical frequency and voltage of thissignal. An oscilloscope was used to visualize the high frequency heterodyning process thatcreated the oscillation in the audible range. The voltage regulator could be checked for thecorrect DC voltage output. The students also planned the Theremin enclosure and the

research (DBR) study[22], [23]. DBR is a method that allows researchers to test their hypotheses about how learningcan be supported by conducting iterative cycles of classroom-based study. In this method, thecourse instructor typically collaborates with a learning scientist to document and analyze theimpact of carefully planned instruction. Each cycle provides an opportunity to evaluate how theinstruction did or did not support learning as intended. This study, therefore, builds on findingsfrom the previous two iterations.Participants & settingThe participants included 56 students in 10 teams enrolled in a sophomore-level materials andenergy balances course, a core course in the chemical engineering program at a Hispanic-servingresearch
