She received her B.S. in Computer En- gineering from North Carolina A&T State University in 2013. Her research interests include educational technologies, embodied learning, culturally relevant education, and broadening minority
group judgment in engineering design; one goal of this work is to to understand factors that inhibit full participation of students who identify with historically marginalized groups and investigate evidence-based strategies for mitigating these inequities. In addition, she is interested in technology and how specific affordances can change the ways we collaborate, learn, read, and write. Teaching engineer- ing communication allows her to apply this work as she coaches students through collaboration, design thinking, and design communication. She is part of a team of faculty innovators who originated Tandem (tandem.ai.umich.edu), a tool designed to help facilitate equitable and inclusive teamwork environments.Rebecca L

students discussed the fact that their high schools didnot have information technology or computer-based classes in it, they did not know anyone whoworked in the field, and they had never tried programming before. In these cases, the studentsdiscovered the field of computer science by accident, typically by taking a class required for adifferent major. For example: Personally, I came to [university] to be an electrical engineer, because I'm really good at abstraction. I took Intro to Media Computation just for fun, and then I really liked it, but then I thought I couldn't get a job in computer science. I talked to my advisor, and she's like, ‘Yeah, there's actually like a field you can get a job in,’ and it blew my mind
