experiences for pre-college students. Furthermore, theexpanding agenda to enrich Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)education is often proposed as a solution to educational inequities (Bullock, 2017). While we areencouraged by efforts to strengthen the PCEE infrastructure we propose more robustconsiderations are necessary to examine how these investments of resources will not deepenongoing inequities, particularly as STEM courses suffer from an exclusionary culture (Carter etal., 2019; Nasir & Vakil, 2017). In this paper, we will explore critical consciousness as a conceptual framework that canassist pre-college engineering educators in advancing equitable PCEE. Critical consciousnesscan help educators disavow

The kits werenot developed with an intent to evoke science and mathematics moments, nor were caregiversprovided any training before interacting with their child.ParticipantsParticipants in this study were four families (1 African American; 3 White), seven caregiver-child dyads.

3.0 to 3.4 range (B to B+ interms of letter grades). This would be the expectation based off the cumulative distributionfunction shown previously. Small sample sizes or incredibly gifted students contribute to theoutliers observed, which are localized to specific terms and majors. For EngineeringManagement in 2010, only one student from this major took MC311. For Chemical Engineeringin 2013, a gifted cohort created this peak; two students had incoming GPAs above 4.0 and themajority had GPAs between 3.3 and 3.8. For Nuclear Engineering in 2019, there was only onestudent from this major and a gifted one at that. The interesting observations garnered from thisfigure is that despite obvious outliers, the general trend for incoming GPAs has

First, thecompetition moved away from a single load test to a head-to-head qualifying format toincorporate a bridge’s durability by experiencing several load tests in addition to overall strengthand economics traditionally evaluated by the strength-to-weight ratios.
