Being sure to look at the Black woman as she is, both a woman and ablack person, is both powerful and insightful. The studies in this literature review use anintersectionality lens by looking specifically at African American women.For the African American woman faculty member oppressions take the form of invisibility,isolation, and other barriers that stand in the way of career advancement as faculty.

Consequently in these settings, only asurface level understanding of their value is realized [2]. Many engineering students do not know how toapproach large complex systems due to their exposure to idealistic examples [3].

Secondly, if GRIT is sufficiently predictive, as some earlier results suggest, some aspects of GRIT might be used to impact admissions or placement decisions, allowing students who are not able to show their capabilities on standardized metrics to have an additional input to the admission decision process.”By contrast, Williamson, Pannizo, Perriakos and

less than 10% of them declare engineering as a major [29]. Wehave begun a line of inquiry into the ways in which students who have already matriculated intoengineering construct smartness [11, 22, 30, 31]. We have also explored the beliefs thatuniversity faculty hold about the nature of intelligence [32]. However, it is with this contributionthat we look at the construction of smartness by high school science and engineering students.Other influential work on the construction of smartness in K-12 education, such as work by Hatt[3] draws on empirical evidence from much younger students (e.g., kindergarten). By studyingthe beliefs of high school students directly, we begin to build an understanding that can lead todisrupting such beliefs that
