formation as engineersand non-engineers work together. While we understand this study to be limited in scope, thefeedback provides preliminary evidence for collaborative research across disciplines and howprofessional skills are fostered in the classroom.IntroductionUndergraduate engineering students are often trained in disciplinary concepts and techniques oftheir specializations, but are rarely given opportunities to work with collaborators from differentdisciplines. In Gary Lee Downey’s words, the very educational processes “producing engineersas outcomes” [1] may neglect key professional skills that those engineers need.Skills that relate to collaborating with peers in different disciplines are increasingly necessary forpracticing engineers

In this definition they connect “fair conditions” with “individuals and groups” and thesuccess in whatever endeavor being evaluated (e.g., “specific metrics”), but clearly at the outcomeof the endeavor.A report calling for technology design to be more inclusive provides another take on thechallenges we face trying to understand equity and equality. In [12], equality is defined aseveryone having “the same opportunity” even if it affords some in the group “an existing (andoften unconscious) unfair advantage.” In contrast, equity means everyone getting an opportunitythat levels the “playing field with their peers” thus increasing the “fairness to compete.”In summary, these definitions draw

the research team each rated 19 to 35 teaching examples. This resulted in aminimum of eight ratings for each teaching example. These ratings often had wide disparities.For example, ten cases had ratings for novelty across the full spectrum from 1 to 4,demonstrating a lack of consensus. The write-in comments provided insights into differences inwhat raters perceived as novel, transferable, or likely to impact students’ learning. Given thedisparities in opinions, it would be useful to develop and implement a standard assessmentmethod for ethics teaching modalities to better delineate what constitutes an exemplar.IntroductionThere have been a number of calls to improve the education of engineering students on ethicsand societal impact issues

to, say,the norms of a writing seminar where all are expected to acquire the skill without finding outwho is incapable at writing. What seemed to be coming up in this interview was a daily experience of beingconstructed as incapable, in programming (for Isaac) and/or in engineering. We call this thecultural construction of ability, of being “not cut out for” the discipline. The disability at play inthis educational fact is not one that often gets labeled or spoken out loud in those terms, thoughneither is it only living inside one student’s head. The sort of ability hierarchies at play herehave a mutually acknowledged meaning and institutional consequences. By cultural constructionof ability we mean to acknowledge the many levels on

Thereis a dire need to create parity in who is taught and who is teaching. Previous research (Bañuelos& Flores, 2020) supports the benefits of creating this parity and the current disparity's negativeeffects. While we are wary of relying on panethnic labels, as our population of TFF spans arange of identities, backgrounds, and immigration statuses, we do use the terms Latine andHispanic (not interchangeably).

For example, in discussing the role ofconscientizão in revolutionary leadership, Friere writes (p.67): The revolutionary leaders must realize that their own conviction of the necessity for struggle (an indispensable dimension of revolutionary wisdom) was not given to them by anyone else—if it is authentic. This conviction cannot be packaged and sold; it is reached, rather, by means of a totality of reflection and action. Only the leaders’ own involvement in reality, within an historical situation, led them to criticize this situation and wish to change it.Here

. Belonging encompasses a subjective assessment of astudent's sense of acceptance, value, inclusion, and encouragement from both peers andinstructors within the academic environment. It also entails feeling integral to the class andrecognizing one's importance in the educational community [13]. Studies indicate that studentswho persist in STEM majors tend to experience a heightened sense of belonging compared totheir counterparts who transition out of STEM fields. However, individuals fromunderrepresented groups, including females, are less likely to perceive a strong sense ofbelonging. This disparity is, in part, attributed to the numerical underrepresentation of womenboth in educational settings and within the industrial landscape [13-18]. This

the day. Education was not necessary to earn a living, it was merely a luxury for the elites and the rich. Education 2.0 originated from the need to read and write and was developed in the model of Industry 2.0, with emphasis on repeatability, uniformity, efficiency, and mass production. Industry needed lots of people to do same type of tasks and the education paradigm evolved to meet that need. Engineering education, which modeled the industrial set-up most closely followed a highly linear path with curriculum being divided into a set of courses with a distinct prerequisite structure where students would have to pass one class to move onto the next. This arrangement, mirrored the assembly line and turned out to be the most efficient
