But whether those diversity trainings wereeffective is up for debate, with evidence pointing to some promising initiatives but fewinstitutional changes that disrupt racism [13]–[15] and some well-intentioned trainingsexacerbating the problem of bias [16]. In turn, many campuses moved to embracing student-centered pedagogies. Tools and resources, such as the “Advancing Inclusion and Anti-Racism inthe College Classroom: A rubric and resource guide for instructors” [17] and “Toward anantiracist engineering classroom for 2020 and beyond: A starter kit,” [18] were developed to helpfaculty reflect on their identity and positionality, consider their students’ lived

Using this method,for the difficult dimension, the model learns to identify words that are more correlated withhigher difficulty ratings but not correlated with quality ratings.From these word lists, two of the authors manually annotated the words that were valid membersof the different dimensions based on fixed criteria. For example, the word “helping” would countas helpful but not clear because helpful words should reflect positive social behavior while clearwords indicate effective communication. Next, we adapt these lists to the original CCE dataset bycomputing the nearest neighbors to the words in each dimension, using word embeddings trainedon the CCE text data [22]. Computing

slowlyincreased (Cunninghame et al., 2016), this group still remains largely underrepresented in STEMdisciplines (Moon et al., 2012). This discrepancy in representation reflects larger issues ofmarginalization in STEM fields and higher education at large. Current support structures fordisabled people remain ineffective, as accessing necessary resources requires navigatingphysical, cultural, and bureaucratic barriers (Groen-McCall et al., 2018). These barriers onlycontinue to widen for disabled students planning to pursue engineering careers (Prema & Dhand,2019), as seen in the high unemployment rate for disabled scientists and engineers, which isgreater than that of the entire U.S. labor force (Lee, 2010; NSF, 2017).

Science Outstanding Mentor Award. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Labor Based Grading in Computer Science - A Student Centered PracticeAbstractInnovation in teaching in STEM fields was explored widely during the COVID pandemic in 2020. Thispaper describes the adaptation of labor based grading for computer science courses. Labor based gradinghas been developed for language and writing courses by shifting the grading focus from summative examsto formative and reflective assessments. The method was tested in several computer science courses withtwo different instructors during the 2020-2021 academic year. Students were surveyed to understand howthey perceived grading methods

limitations of the self-efficacy construct have been identified. Onesuch is a critique that the construct serves more as a reflection of motivation rather than adeterminant and therefore researchers should endeavor to understand the various sources of self-efficacy in greater depth in order to interpret its meaning [5]. These insights motivate a deeperinvestigation into the relevance of self-efficacy in this context.Our students’ transformation as they undergo design-build experiences is likely multi-faceted. Aseeming increase in confidence, ergo self-efficacy, stood out in the lead author’s initialobservations. Through reflection and discussion with colleagues at the university, two otherpossible experiences emerge for investigation. Students may be

When using an HCD approach, designers focus on the human elements in the project andimplement processes such as exploring, empathizing, reflecting, brainstorming, and iterating toidentify and connect with stakeholders, generate ideas, and create and test prototypes of solutions[10], [11]. Within HCD, solutions may be products, services, experiences, or changes.

Many underrepresented students encounterdisconnects between formal instruction and their home experiences as the content often used inclassrooms does not reflect their community-based experiences. PBE addresses this challenge asit seeks to overcome this dissonance by leveraging learning from local surroundings [14]. InPBE, students are provided opportunities to explore local environments, phenomena, history, andeconomy in place.
