Various descriptions ofintersectionality have proliferated in engineering education, from situating it within feministtheory [4] to using it as a synonym and signifier for researchers exploring student groups withmultiply marginalized identities [19]. This project seeks to unpack and identify the ways inwhich intersectionality has been used in engineering education research and whether/how theyalign with Crenshaw’s and subsequent articulations of intersectionality.Fig. 1.

Projector: The pico-projector runs on an Android OS and uses the Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology invented by Texas Instruments for projection. The pico- projector has an internal battery which can be charged through the external battery. This battery can run the projector for approximately 2.5 hours at 130 lumens of brightness. D.

OverviewThe overall goal of this three year project is to increase awareness and preparedness of rural andindigenous youth to pursue engineering and engineering-related careers. To reach this goal, weare working with elementary pre and in-service teachers in rural and reservation communities touse ethnographic methods to connect local funds of knowledge with classroom curriculum. Morespecifically, the first phase (current phase) is on training participating teachers, whereas thesecond phase will be on supporting their implementation of the engineering curricula. This paperdescribes the first summer professional development, which focused on two items: (1) trainingelementary teachers and pre-service teachers in ethnographic methods and photo

Finally, the survey alsoyielded valuable suggestions from students to promote a diverse, equitable, and inclusive academic andsocial environment at the university. The findings from this study also support the idea that students withdifferent ethnic and social identities can have different views and experiences regarding diversity, inclusion,and equity in their campus.

This project combines two frameworks to guide the aims of the study.Conceptually, the work is guided by Garcia, Núñez, and Sansone’s (2019) MultidimensionalConceptual Framework of Servingness in HSIs (referred to as the “servingness” framework)which provides a holistic understanding of different dimensions that are important in definingservingness at HSIs [2]. Theoretically, the work is grounded in Margaret Archer’s (1995)morphogenetic approach [1], a sociologically-informed theory that allows for exploring complexsocio-cultural systems in a way that places equal emphasis on systems and people.

Many other educators and researchers have created videos for use in engineering educationbefore, such as depicting communications in electrical engineering through simulation.14 Studieshave shown engineering education videos to be effective in different ways depending on theirusage, such as reducing the time needed for face-to-face tutoring.15 These videos have frequentlyfocused on individual engineering majors or topics within individual engineering courses,however, and Crash Course: Engineering was developed to

Each Lab Section was assigned toeither the control or the treatment group based on number of students and the time of day of theLab. Four Lab sections were assigned to the control group, totaling 131 students, and five labsections were assigned to the treatment group, totaling 133 students.
