The faculty member will share what they are doing with others and conduct informal public outreach as they share what they have learned.As noted above, a supportive department culture might be a key motivator for engineering orcomputer science faculty to adopt diversity and inclusion related changes in their course(s).Cultural change is a long-term process and may run on a timeline that is not compatible with afixed length grant-funded project.

over the chip. The camera plugs into the USB portof a PC and produces videos (30 frames/s) of fluid flow. The magnification ranges from 10X to500X. Other camera types and set-ups are of course workable as well, including higher-endconsumer CCD cameras. The quantification of flow rate can be made adding a graduated scale inthe image, such as with a thin plastic ruler placed along the flow channel which shows theposition of the flow front in each frame along with the time for that frame. From this analysis,the flow velocity can be accurately determined as a function of time. A common analysisobjective is to determine the pressure drop ∆𝑃 between two points as a function of flow rate Q orfluid velocity v. ∆𝑃 = 𝑓

We have shared our work primarily through conferences to gain the help of theengineering education community in framing the taxonomy and our other results. We havepresented our work in four presentations at 3 conferences, and have another under review forpresentation at this ASEE conference. We have engaged the community with several workshopsand presentations as well. Orr, M., Ohland, M., Long, R., Brawner, C., Lord, S., and

other organisms. The necessary reactants forphotosynthesis, in addition to sunlight, are carbon dioxide and water. There is an overabundanceof carbon dioxide on earth, but water is not always readily available. This activity concentrateson suppling plants with a steady source of water without the cost or depletion of aquafers causedby using some type of irrigation method. Students will develop hydrogels that help to retain soilmoisture while being biodegradable and nontoxic. This activity can easily be adapted to be ashort lab activity or extended into a long-term project.The first part of the lab will determine what component(s) will dehydrate and then reabsorb thehighest percentage of water.
