thoughtful andreasoned with respect to hydrodynamics. We believe that this approach of collaborative lectureswith small groups will be beneficial to others needing to teach high-level concepts to studentswho do not yet have the background knowledge required for more formal teaching.IntroductionIn a first-year engineering course at a large Midwestern research university, remotely operatedvehicles (ROVs) are used as a design project topic to teach fundamental engineering andcommunication skills. The course utilizes a design-build-test-communicate framework with theuse of peer mentors [1, 2] to coach students through what is often their first team-based course intheir post-secondary education [3, 4].In the design of ROVs, the science of hydrodynamics

. Stereotype threat is most robust in situations thatinclude a variable that “triggers” the stereotype. Tests that are explicitly framed as ability testsor difficult tests are more likely to heighten stereotype threat [18]. As Ben-Zeev, Fein, & Inzlichtreported [19], an identity threat, such as telling women who identified with math that they wouldtake a very difficult math test, was enough to cause them to perform poorly on a test completelyunrelated to math and easy to do - writing their name backwards.Literature recommends numerous techniques to reduce stereotype threats in a learningenvironment: ● Teach students about the phenomenon of stereotype threat [20]. ● Provide students with situational (as opposed to stereotype-based) explanations

Support from the Theories of Liberatory Pedagogy and IntersectionalityI. IntroductionWithin conversations on broadening participation in engineering, there is a longstandingrecognition of the need for and importance of institutional support for students fromunderrepresented demographic groups [1]. This support comes from many sources, such asinstitutional offices, programmatic initiatives, and informal mentoring by faculty and peers. Keyinstitutional programmatic interventions include bridge programs, recruitment incentives,scholarship support, and safe space communities for marginalized and underrepresented identitygroups. These initiatives act as a front line for addressing diversity and equity in engineering.Their importance has been
