For example, ADVANCE is a fund that invests infaculty success by exploring and establishing institution-based support programs and strategiesto enhance the climate and institutional context encountered by faculty women in engineering[10]. These initiatives may warrant a different structure at different institutions, such as minority-serving institutions (MSIs), in keeping with institutional missions and demographics. Specific toMSI, Allen et al. [11] proffered that institutional transformation must assist women faculty inSTEM by providing support to develop writing and research skills, networking

In this paper,we examine some enormously complex aspects of equity and inclusion work that can often beperceived as simplicities, particularly among our collective scholarship and practicecommunities. Those with normative and privileged identities may in fact not see or understandthe range of experiences inside these hidden and transitioning identity categories and thecomplex challenges associated with investigating, intervening in, and embracing thesecommunities. There are yet more complexities under that surface. When writing about marginalizedstudent “populations” we tend to see them through a lens that others them as research subjects,and in turn, often fail to recognize the researcher and practitioner (i.e

In the IE approach, instruction is designed to support adevelopmental sequence of five different stages of understanding that enable learners to makesense of the world in different ways. Learners progress to new stages by mastering the cognitivetools associated with each stage of understanding.

compared to that of the topic-quiz reflection. These results might beexplained by the fact that students were requested to write a 1-page reflection for both the topicquiz and DYOP. It is reasonable that for some levels to increase, others must decrease. Sinceproblems designed by students on the DYOP were of similar complexity as those they completedon quizzes, a decrease in percent coverage at the Understand and Apply levels indicates lessemphasis placed on engagement at these levels during reflection rather than less engagement atthem. Indeed, it would be difficult for students to engage at the Analyze level without first havingengaged fully in the Understand and Apply levels. The decrease in N/A (-20.6%), however, can beattributed to a decrease

TechnologyStudies (STS). Throughout the fall 2019 semester, I began to question the ways in which I hadbeen recruited and channeled, as a woman with an interest in science and math, into studyingengineering. Upon taking an introductory STS course, I was introduced to reflecting criticallyabout engineering as a field of study. This led me to enroll in a graduate seminar, EngineeringStudies, which provided me with a much deeper introduction to STS-inflected studies ofengineering, including engineering education. During this time, my professor, along with apostdoctoral fellow, were co-PIs for a study of student experiences in engineering education andhad already convened a group of undergraduate students who were in the process of interviewingtheir peers

student engagement and academic success measures (such as retention) hasbeen well-established in the literature (e.g.,[3]), the program was designed to create a smalllearning community experience for students who would be less likely to demonstrate highengagement with the university, the curriculum, their instructors, and their peers. There are manyreasons why low-income students might show low-engagement levels. One reason is that aschool and/or family obligation requires them to work a significant number of hours each week.It is difficult to attend football games or join a sorority when you are working 20-40 hours aweek off-campus. Engagement is a luxury that many low-income students simply cannot afford.The Endeavour Program was designed to

Papers that resulted from the search on kindness and education were generally relatedto PK12 or medical settings (nursing and medical school). The pre-college papers tended tofocus on teaching kids and students to be kind in their behavior toward peers and more broadly.This had a focus on fostering kindness in pupils among an array of prosocial behaviors,sometimes included with social-emotional education.

Past studies have indicated that students withADHD have an extremely high risk of academic failure and dropout, and are more than twice aslikely than their peers without ADHD to leave university. Traditional engineering programs arefailing to attract and retain neurodiverse learners, and thus do not benefit from these students’high potential for creative thinking. The disconnect between the traditional educationenvironment and the abilities of students with ADHD is not unique to higher education.

To helpstudents actively recognize the diversity among their peers. Librarians can get a sense ofclassroom diversity by looking at the results of the survey. However, that alone does not advancethe concept of inclusion. According to McNair, inclusion is the “active, intentional, and ongoing engagement withdiversity—in the curriculum, in the co-curriculum, and in communities (intellectual, social,cultural, geographical) with which individuals might connect—in ways that increase awareness,content knowledge, cognitive sophistication, and empathic understanding of the complex
