Through its first two years of implementation, the course invited practicingprofessionals to present unique projects in building design that excited students about their futurecareers. Since then, the AE Seminar course has also served as a gathering place to address theundergraduate AE student body with important announcements, reminders, and opportunities.Often, instructors also recognize recipients of student and design competition awards to helpfoster a student culture of achievement, excellence, and celebration of others.

While the commitment to JEDI inengineering curriculum is clear, the task of embedding this knowledge into engineering courses,many of which traditionally contain highly technical content, may seem overwhelming.To help engineering and computer science programs tackle this issue, an NSF funded five-year,multi-institutional project was run with the purpose of developing activities to embed intechnical curriculums that both promote inclusive engineering identities within undergraduatestudents and highlight the benefits of diversity in professional environments [3], [4], [5].

importance of relying on real-world behavior to guide understandingand engineering design.One of the guiding principles for the design of lab activities for this project was that lab activitiesare most effective if they align closely with concepts and principles taught in class. In addition,lab activities should allow students to visualize, experience, and clarify confusing concepts. Tothis end, equipment should be as simple as possible so that students don’t get lost in aspects ofthe experiment that are not at the core of the phenomena studied. Unnecessary programs, gad-gets, tools, or assembly should be avoided when possible. Further, sufficient equipment needs tobe provided so that students can all conduct experiments first-hand, rather than

Therefore, thefollowing gives a background on self-efficacy, and relates it to students’ confidence intheir learning and to their instructors’ teaching. Also, the following explains howteaching practices can influence students’ confidence. Self-efficacy theory, which has a significant impact on how students view theirown abilities as learners, emphasizes that people’s confidence in performing a certaintask depends on four types of experience: previous success

The learning activities within the curriculum integrate music, language,STEAM, and literacy. Children learned about AI by listening to stories and picture books andreviewing specific vocabulary in the stories.
