This has now forced the academiccommunity to assess how such AI systems will impact students and, by extension, how aseducator’s aspects of their critical thinking skills are being impacted by the availability of such apowerful tool. Students can engage with the AI to seek information, solve problems, and engagein idea creation

Multilingual Board GameIntroductionSerious games are a category of games that are often used in education to provide access tocomplex systems. In past research and curriculum development, engineering teachers haveimplemented curriculum around STEM-focused games [1], such as for urban planning [2],transportation engineering [1], chemistry education [3] and computational thinking [4]. Due tothe increased interactive engagement of games compared to lecture [5], [6], [7], engineeringeducators have utilized games to positively impact students' learning. However, theseeducational games are often only available in English. Students whose first language (L1) is notEnglish may be limited in how they present their ideas to peers in these playful spaces

Through the1980s, writers such as Audre Lorde and Patricia Hill Collins highlighted the multitude of waysthat intersecting identities gave rise to unique, interlocking, and intersectional forms ofoppression [14], [15]. These writings brought intersectionality to the center of activist thought,challenging the previously single-issue politics of groups such as the civil rights movement, thegay/lesbian liberation movement, and second-wave feminism. Since its roots in activist politics and articulation by Crenshaw, intersectionality has madeits way into a wide array of disciplines. Packaged as a tenet in

)  a single college or university within a country or an academic discipline.As our understanding of impactful learning evolves, many instructors are drawn to explorealternative pedagogies such as flipped classrooms, hands-on exploration, problem-based andproject-based approaches, case studies, peer instruction, and more. These and other activepedagogies can improve engineering student learning [2]. Effectively deploying any of theseapproaches entails a shift in curricular culture. Roles, activities, expectations, and artifactschange from one pedagogical approach to another, and so the underlying assumptions facultymembers make about teaching and learning must change as well.Faculty members undertaking such pedagogical modifications sometimes
