assumptions of faith and divinity, their association with religious traditions raise ahost of issues most educators are not prepared or willing to deal with. A second challenge is thatthese contemplative practices require extensive first-hand experience before an educator is ableor ready to share them with students. This makes the solution not scalable, since it is not realisticto assume that mass numbers of technology and engineering educators will take up and sustainmindfulness meditation practice. Barbezat and Bush (2013) also point out a third and relatedchallenge: That, by nature of their introspective and spiritual nature, contemplative practicesmight raise complex questions about the nature of the mind and self that most educators are

The research questions guiding this grant are: RQ1: What are assets, factors, and strategies that enable access for two- year college students to engineering transfer pathways? RQ2: Do assets, factors, and strategies vary in magnitude and/or presence across student demographics, locations, institutions, or intention to transfer? RQ3: How does use of digital learning tools and resources impact transfer outcomes for pre-transfer engineering students? RQ4: To what extent can transfer outcomes be

There are several reasons that involving undergraduates in outreach is particularlyeffective, primarily because they can break the stereotypes of engineers that most K12 studentshave in their minds.

Byinterfacing with faculty members, cooperative efforts are more easily developed on projects atboth academic and industry levels. Recently, industry practitioners have indicated their interestin having faculty members make site visits to better foster these relationships. As industrypartners have returned they have adjusted their presentations to make them even moreinteractive.

importance of DEI in engineering. It gave us a deeper understanding of ourselvesand each other, bringing us closer as a group. I often wished that our class periods were longerbecause our discussions got so involved that we got out of class late every class. We were engaged,thinking critically, listening, and bouncing ideas around. All while learning about DEI issues inengineering education and the industry it was a gratifying experience. I learned so much withoutneeding to take notes, watch mind-numbing PowerPoint presentations, or listen to a lecture to tryand decipher what was important and what was not.All these factors ignited my interest and passion for George Mason, the Engineering Department,and DEI topics.

Kevin reported: “So definitely more about the engineering design process and really how it relates to something as simple as 3D printing. I think I always looked at engineering as this field of mathematics and science that I could never be a part of. Because I always struggled with science. And I don't know if it was just the teacher or the concepts. But I just knew and had this built in my mind that I'm not good at science.

throughout their lives. Education cannot give learners all the information that they need to know, but rather it must provide the tools for continuing to learn. Keeping that in mind, the main objectives of the Introduction to Mechanical Design course were the following:1. Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, statistics, science and engineering2. Ability to design a system, component or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints3. Ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems4. Ability to use the techniques, skills and modern engineering tools necessary to engineering practice. The process for integrating inquiry techniques into the course, contained designing activities, assignments, and
