I mean, this is really her work anyway.” When Melissa demurs, Taffy contacts Jordan to talk about it, and they develop a plan together that prioritizes Jordan’s concerns.We suggest dialogue as a first step to developing enduring accomplice relationships becausedirect dialogue with BIPOC is perhaps the only way to begin to understand the situationalcomplexities and priorities of colleagues.

So my parents are elderly. My, well, I don't know if they think they're elderly, but like they're changing now.

We also plan to survey wider, more diverse populations of learners beyond engineeringand art classes, to look for differences in self-efficacy. Expanding the target educational level topostsecondary and professional learners would provide additional validity evidence for the use ofthis DSEI across many learning settings. Future directions may expand the DSEI more generally toany researchers interested in measuring drawing self-efficacy, whether using digital drawing

The logic in this study is thatthe on-the-job experiences of engineering alumni provide a ‘jolt’ that causes them to reflect anddraw upon the ethical reasoning that they may have developed during college extracurricularactivities.Research QuestionsTwo research questions were explored in this study: RQ1.

a variety of definitions and dimensions within the literature [10]. For example,Fruchter defines teamwork, in the context of (building) design, as a process - rather than acompetency - of reaching a shared understanding of relevant knowledge domains, the object beingdesigned and built, the design process itself, and the commitments it engenders [26]. Hirsch andMcKenna consider a variety of elements as part of teamwork, like conflict management,communication, leadership, and project management [21]. Teamwork is among the ABET learningoutcomes for engineering programs and is defined as “an ability to function effectively on a teamwhose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment,establish goals, plan

investigation [7], [28]. As a result, some authors continue to view onlineinstruction with suspicion [5], [29]. The primary criticism of virtual instruction is that it lacks thelevel of instructor-student interaction that occurs in-person [5], [29]. As a result, these criticsargue that online instruction should be provided synchronously, imitating in-person education asmuch as possible [5], [29]. Burns, Cunningham, and Foran-Mulcahy [24] disagree, however,arguing that carefully designed asynchronous education has the potential to be as effective assynchronous or in-person education. While synchronous instruction may be better equipped tofacilitate in-person interactions, with adequate planning, design, and unique pedagogicalapproaches, asynchronous

things she needed to do to excel. As she states, “When I started my job at AOC, I was nervous about the engineering work. This was my first exposure to such work and I had always believed I wasn’t smart enough to be an engineer due to my difficulty in math and science. However, I faced my fear, participated on every project team to which I was assigned, and eventually learned to read blueprints and plans allowing me to perform the work for which I was hired. Some people even said I couldn’t do it, that I would quit the job because I didn’t have an engineering background. I proved them all wrong.”As this statement indicates, Marjory explains that even though women are so often doubted inengineering, it

Not only will thisbe beneficial for the planning stages of the project, but this will help provide buy-in and buildrapport with participants. After forming the study team, the next task is to reach out to membersof the community to participate in the project.

engineering identities“must negotiate the roles they play within the community of engineering as a discipline, ingroups with their peers, and within the classroom.” Tonso [25] describes identity development as“a complicated process through which campus engineer identities (cultural knowledge learned oncampus) provided a lens of meaning through which to “recognize” (or not) performances ofengineer selves as engineers.” Particularly for women and students of color, engineering identitycan be very malleable and susceptible to change, with persistence and career plans able to be“strongly swayed” by even small interactions or experiences as undergraduates [29].Institutions themselves foster engineering identity development through displays of solidarity

Widely recognized examples of multi-lateral science diplomacy – such as,the 1954 founding of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (known asCERN), the 1959 signing of the Antarctic Treaty System, and the 1998 launch of theInternational Space Station – provide an insight into the three pillars of sciencediplomacy, namely: 1) scientists serving as diplomats (i.e., the Iran nuclear deal, formerlyknown as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action adopted in October

].It seems from the reports that the organization was able to mold some, if not many, workersto its way of thinking; which is to be expected in strong sub-cultures. For example, seniorengineers embraced the goal that the aircraft should be seen to be a development of the 737NG and not a new airplane because a new aircraft would require a completely newcertification entailing substantial additional costs [CS 8.3: 8.4: 9.6]. Among those costswould be simulator based training which would not be necessary for pilots transitioning to the737 MAX from the 737NG. As previously indicated the costs of simulator training are huge.Senior engineers embraced these goals as did some employees. For example a group of themassisted Boeing develop its plan to
