also hinder or undermine self-motivation, social functioning, and personal well-being. With this in mind, we believe that issues related to diversity, equity, inclusion, andbelonging among individuals within college classrooms and the workplace may contribute tothese environmental factors, and hence need to be identified, explored, and resolved.In this paper, we will demonstrate how a series of workshops were designed to create satisfying,hands-on activities fostering students’ intrinsic motivation to increase their awareness and abilityto address DEI issues in engineering education, as well as in engineering workplaces. Overall,we will answer the question: Can a DEI workshop series created for high school and enteringcollege students from

The Morrill Act of 1862 established engineering as a major atinstitutions currently known as PWIs. From the very conception of the engineering collegiateculture in 1862, minoritized groups have been ostracized and unwelcomed. Engineering as amajor was not created with Communities of Color in mind. Studies have shown that a diverseengineering faculty contributes to improving access and success of diverse students [3].Considering this, it is important to address the effects of the lack of minority

The paper emphasizes the two majordesign projects used to teach the engineering design process. For the past thirteen years, one ofthese long-term design projects has been completed in collaboration with several internationaluniversities. The design teams have combined engineering students from diverse cultures

Confirmatory factor analysis supported the constructvalidity and potential utility of the measure, which was found to include two subscales: Ingenuityand Solution Seeking. The scale also demonstrated adequate internal consistency reliability.Correlations between children’s perceptions of their inventive habits of mind and theiridentification with STEAM subjects were moderate and highest for science. The findings suggestthat STEAM subject identification and an inventive mindset can, but do not always, overlap.Keywords: invention education, inventive mindset, STEM identity, STEAM, K-12 education.
