colonnades of oppression.Critical consciousness seeks to share power with those who are socially, historically, andpolitically oppressed in ways that they not only recognize but challenge unjust systems. Developing critical consciousness cannot be based solely on training or competence [5].As Freire argues, “to affirm that men and women are persons and as persons should be free, andyet to do nothing tangible to make this affirmation as reality, is a farce” [15, p. 50]. Thus,altering the conditions students of Color find in STEM requires reflection, engagement, andaction toward social justice goals from those with power. By establishing a criticalconsciousness as the foundation, allies can effectively work toward multicultural competency.These

The five faculty participants provided written reflections on how theirlife and professional experiences have informed said practices. From a social constructionismparadigm and using narrative inquiry methodology, a combination of in vivo and descriptivecoding (first cycle) followed by emergent and focused coding (second cycle) were used by thefirst three authors to generate a codebook.

Introduction During the late 2000s, the South Korean government identified the need to prioritizescience and technology policy in the university sector, specifically in the area of informationand communication technologies, with the aim of developing global leaders. A concerningissue of a "crisis in science and engineering fields" was identified, whereby many youngstudents were disinclined to pursue science and technology careers. In response, thegovernment initiated an effort to attract talented young

Othernegative experiences included feeling they did not understand the purpose of assignments on thecourse learning management system and other team members were not contributing. At thebeginning of the semester, assignments focused on ethics, teaming, how to do a literature reviewand document research, and other preliminary topics. Students wanted to dive right into theresearch rather than completing training and pre-research activities. Additionally, journalassignments requested that students reflect on their experiences weekly. Engineering students arenot accustomed to

The concept of funds of knowledge emerged from the work ofVelez-Ibañez and Greenberg [4] who described the strategic and cultural resources and skillsutilized by Mexican American families in the U.S. Southwest. They described how these“specific strategic bodies of information” [4, p. 314], were utilized to ensure and maintain thewell-being of their families. For instance, they described families and their knowledge of folkmedicine to provide medical care for their families due to the lack of doctors and thediscrimination faced by Mexican Americans in rural areas in the Southwest.

Yet within engineering programs, students often have few opportunities to developexpertise in data science or even to explore how data science is relevant to their degreespecializations. This paper reports on an NSF-funded study of a program that prepares STEMstudents to engage with data science in coursework and then mentors them as they secureinternships and complete a capstone that demonstrates their application of data science expertise.Drawing on a mixed-methods study, including student reflections, capstone project assessment,and survey reporting, this paper suggests not only that students make deep connections betweentheir existing majors and data science but also that students trained in our

does engineering? Who is engineering done for? Asengineering is increasingly associated with cutting edge technology and innovative advances incomplex and/or large scale systems, these are questions that merit reflection. These trends tend todisproportionately benefit those in wealthy sectors of society. Simultaneously, those with theleast economic wealth are often negatively impacted. But, engineering doesn’t have to continuealong this path. It is instructive to reflect on the fact that engineering encompasses technologiesand designs that have served much of the human population for ages.

The paper analyzes themes from Shelley’s novel asthey were used in courses in science, technology, and society (STS) to foster ethical reflection onthe perils of practicing irresponsible, presumptuous, unaccountable, and biased techno-science.IntroductionMary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein is widely regarded as a foundational work of early sciencefiction that cautions against misguided and unethical science and engineering. As such, the novelshould be poised to help engineering undergraduates cultivate moral imagination and acommitment to socially responsible techno-science. Along this line, a

The decision to compartmentalize LGBTQ identitieswithin STEM environments reflects social identity threat posed by a lack of self-concept and/orsocial fit. Given what prior research has indicated about the LGBTQ climate in STEM, then,these environments would be expected to pose more social identity threat than many

Potential systemic solutions to these issues all have clear limitations. Removing theability of the students to provide project preferences would likely exacerbate the enumeratedproblems. Requesting that sponsors provide a larger number of potential projects that could beimplemented selectively depending on the distribution of student majors in a given semester is anexcessive burden on sponsors and likely would not reflect their needs regarding potentialimmediacy of solutions
