This paper shares in detail the methods in which the mechanics courseswere redesigned and the influence of a women teaching team on the students. End-of-termcourse evaluations were used to assess the success of the projects as well as enhance futurecourses. This paper aims to investigate and comment through multiple cases, the ways in whichthe diversification of a teaching team at the University of Waterloo in an undergraduateengineering classroom affects both the delivery of the course material and students’ perceptionof learning.BackgroundResearch has found that the lack of diversity in science, technology, engineering and math(STEM

Inaddition, they prepare some students to transfer to 4-year colleges.Northeastern University recently received an NSF grant for an REU site. The site recruitscommunity college students from the greater Boston area with the goal of preparing students toeither join the workforce or transfer to higher education. The REU site, called REU Pathways,focuses on smart engineering with four research themes: artificial intelligence and machinelearning, smart infrastructure, smart materials, and smart health. The program is guided by twoof the grand challenges of the National Academy of Engineering: personalized learning

years are always a critical time frame for cultivating students’ interest andpreparedness for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) careers. However,not every student is provided with opportunities to engage, learn and achieve in STEM subjectareas. Engineering topics are further excluded from curricula when the focus is on Science andMathematics. The Public-School District involved in this study has 35,000 students and 75% ofthem are from under-represented minority communities. Over the years, the schools offering ahigh school Algebra-based Physics course decreased as a larger number of schools faced staffing,scheduling, or other issues.

These programsmost often select the top undergraduate students to perform research at prestigious universities.The REU that is the topic of this paper takes another approach in order to broaden theparticipation of community college students in STEM majors and careers. The NanotechnologyREU with a Focus on Community Colleges brings the top students from local two year campusesto a top-tier university for a 10-week research internship. Students traditionally underrepresentedin STEM fields including minorities, females, first generation to attend college, andeconomically disadvantaged are targeted for participation in this REU program.

computational models of invisible processes in physical systems (e.g., [8]). As argued by Gupta and colleagues [9], a more complete engineering education alsodemands a deeper focus on the “macroethics” of engineering, including the social, ethical, andpolitical impacts of engineers’ scientific and technological pursuits. However, children and manyadults rarely conceptualize their interactions with machines in ways that are consistent with thecomplex and dynamic nature of machine learning systems [4], [5]. While mechanistic reasoningis often used to account for thinking about the behavior within systems, we also apply amechanistic lens to think about ethical dimensions of the sociopolitical contexts in whichmachine learning systems operate.

Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.
