Founder of the Design Entrepreneuring Studio: Barbara helps teams generate creative environments. Companies that she has worked with renew their commitment to innovation. She also helps students an- swer these questions when she teaches some of these methods to engineering, design, business, medicine, and law students. Her courses use active storytelling and self-reflective observation as one form to help student and industry leaders traverse across the iterative stages of a project- from the early, inspirational stages to prototyping

public I should always keep an open mind and consider different groups. A sentence from the lecture that resonated with me and I wrote down was ‘If we don’t design for everyone - not everyone benefits from engineering.’” “These lectures and quiz sections have been my favorite so far in this class. Learning about how extreme the lack of diversity in the STEM field is was stunning to me… I had never considered that social biases could be reflected in science, a topic which I took for cold hard facts.” Comments on weaknesses and areas for improvement: Feeling that [university] generally is very biased in one direction can be intimidating. I don’t disagree with a more liberal perspective, but it makes it hard to even discuss other

He analogizes culture as the “software of the mind” in that culture is a mental programthat is developed by social interactions and experiences collected across an individual’s lifetime.In his words, “the programming starts within the family; it continues within the neighborhood, atschool, in youth groups, at the workplace, and in the living community” (p. 6).

We therefore call upon researchers to explore morecritically learning contexts with an eye toward exposing the implicit White, male dominant normsand their effects on the discipline. As many have shown [12], [41] engineers have been ratheruncritical of their working contexts—looking for alternate explanations and anemic solutions likerecruitment to resolve inequity.

problem seems to be in the fact that the academic foundation that should have beendeveloped over the years in K-12, is not at the level that is expected from incoming freshmen.This raises the question: how can engineering students receive adequate training if they are notcollege-ready? One has to keep in mind that one-year programs are likely unable to help studentscatch up on all K-12 skills and knowledge. The task seems even more formidable consideringthat study habits and academic attitudes are usually formed and solidified during K-12.Clearly there is no single remedy for the problem. Study habits, general attitude towardseducation, and academic preparedness need to be addressed. A solution for the latter issue maybe obtained by integrating
