game and attempting togain game scores, their processing abilities can be trained. We purposely choose the design of geothermal piles as the underlying story for theeducational game. This is because this topic is an interdisciplinary study and provides aninnovative and sustainable solution to the global issue of climate change [4]. Beyond thetraditional teaching in geotechnical engineering, the MERGE platform can show studentswith the role of geotechnical engineers how to solve global issues. It could enhance the senseof pride for being geotechnical engineering students. The geothermal pile is known as anemerging technology that utilizes the underground geothermal energy for cooling or warminginfrastructures through heat exchange. A

In PFE I, students are introduced toengineering and ethical best practices, as well as various career opportunities. In PFE II, studentsare further introduced to careers in technology development, research, and academia. Studentstour engineering labs, experience faculty guest lectures, and consider how to solicit and integratecommunity stakeholder perspectives as they generate solutions to engineering-related problems.Finally, in PFE III, students learn how to use ethical engineering principles to create designs thatmeet societal needs. In each PFE I–III course, about 50 out-of-class hours are allocated forworking on students’ capstone

This is especially truefor science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines, where minoritizedgroups are grossly underrepresented [2], [6]–[8]. For academic year 2021- 22, Latinas attainedonly 13% of all bachelor’s degrees in engineering awarded to U.S. citizens here at the Universityof New Mexico (UNM), and none graduated with a Ph.D. within UNM’s School of Engineering[9]. For the data and this study, Latinas are defined as individuals who identify as a female, withHispanic or Latino ethnicity.

Impact of Afterschool Engineering on Underrepresented Middle School StudentsIntroductionDespite widespread efforts to increase access to science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM), women and racial minorities continue to be underrepresented in these fields. Morewomen than men are enrolled in college, but women only represent 20% of those awardedcomputer science degrees in 2018, a decline from 27% in 1998 [1]. Racial minorities, includingHispanic or Latino, Black or African American, and American Indian or Alaska Native, make upabout a third of the population in the United States, but these groups were only awarded 24% ofscience and engineering bachelor’s degrees [1]. This lack of representation may be linked to

such as relationships with parents, familialresponsibilities, and even physical spaces [48]. This gender socialization begins at an early agewith things like gender-associated colors or gendered-toys, leading to preference choices andinterests later in life [49]. Studies analyzing gendered toys have found that boys’ toys focus onsubject matter like technology or action, while girls’ toys focus on topics like care [50]. Thisearly exposure to gendered occupational roles may then relate directly to the learning childrenengage in and their future educational interests. In STEM and engineering, the gender disparitybetween males and females is well documented [51]. Yet despite increased efforts to attractwomen, as of 2021, women only occupied 14% of
idealized STEM/engineering laborforce, as discussed above. 9Due to their consistent invisibilization, Asian(Americans) are not necessarily acknowledged orcredited for their scientific and intellectual contributions to technological advancements withinthe United States [6]. Chen and Buell note that Asian(Americans) likely account for much of thescientific and intellectual advancements leading to and during the Technological Revolution overthe past century. In particular, Chen and Buell discuss how Asian(American) immigrant womenformed the backbone of the semiconductor industry by working in Silicon Valley-basedfactories, and Asian(American) men
narratives help show how multiple dimensions of adaptability overlap andwork together. For example, the narrative focused on dealing with uncertain and unpredictablework situations also alludes to learning new work tasks, technologies, and procedures. Likewise,the narrative focused on solving problems creatively suggested that the ability to handle workstress and demonstrate interpersonal and cultural adaptability greatly facilitates engineers tosolve complex technical problems they otherwise could not solve by themselves. The ability tosimultaneously examine multiple dimensions of adaptability and their overlaps represents asignificant advantage over the thematic analysis conducted, where each dimension ofadaptability was examined separately.

Similar to anINCLUDES program, these centers bring together engineers, scientists, and industrial partners totackle challenging problems in engineering and technology. The difference is that the goals of theNSF ERC program are highly technical, designed to advance the state of the art in engineeringresearch and education and to transfer new technologies and knowledge to the broader scientificcommunity and to industry.The Engineering PLUS Alliance posits that networked communities are needed to build aninclusive infrastructure that will drive the transformative, systemic and sustainable changeneeded to increase the annual number of BIPOC students and women1 earning

spend in writtencommunication, engineers are considered to be poor writers [3]. To overcome this deficiency andto meet industry demand, the Accreditation Board of Engineering Technology (ABET) in its2000 Criterion 3 required that all engineering graduates demonstrate an ability to communicateeffectively at the time of graduation (criterion g of a-k program outcomes). In the ABET 2019-20accreditation cycle, student outcomes 3 of criterion 3 was modified to graduates demonstrate anability to communicate effectively with a range of audience [4].

classrooms to help with student engagement andknowledge retention.IntroductionResearch shows that student success in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) fields can be correlated not only to their innate ability and intelligence but also to theirself-efficacy and implicit beliefs (growth mindset) [1, 2]. Many students enter their courses at theuniversity level with the belief that their peers are only doing well because they are more intelligentor more naturally gifted. While there may always a few students with greater natural ability, thereason for most engineering students’ success appears to be their ability to learn, grow, and adjustbased on feedback and criticism instead of crumbling under pressure.Providing students with
