partner institutions selected as research sites represent a cross-section of populations,locales, and institutional histories and cultures, including two historically black colleges anduniversities (HBCUs), one rural university, one women’s college, and one predominantly whiteinstitution (PWI). Participant recruitment began in October 2022, and in an effort to include adiverse group of first-year, undergraduate, Black women, applications included questions aboutfamily financial and educational background, hometown, perceived high school academicpreparation, and long-term career goals. All applications were thoroughly reviewed anddiscussed by the entire research team before the final forty (40) participants were selected.The data collected

overemphasis on diverse engineeringapplications and Python libraries within lectures have diluted its focus on programmingfundamentals. As a result, many engineering students lack the foundational programmingknowledge needed to effectively apply computational tools in more advanced engineeringcourses. Moreover, this deficiency leaves students underprepared to meet the programming andcomputational demands of many engineering careers upon graduation. Recognizing thesechallenges, we seek to redesign CS 101 to better align with the needs of engineeringstudents.Previous research provides valuable insights into CS1 redesign. Efforts to redesign CS1 coursesfor non-CS major students have introduced specialized approaches tailored to different studentinterests

, especially, it's not someone just switching over to solar and wind, like, an overnight, we're all fixed and everything's great. It's, it's a slow transition. And there's lots of different social, technological, and just environmental aspects to it. So yeah, I guess that there, there's been a lot of things that I've learned at [University C]. And there's also a lot of things that I don't think I have the answers to yet, and will take a long time to come to those like solution-sides of things, when I'm looking like towards my future, and like, definitely, like, I know, for a fact that whatever I end up doing career-wise, like I want it to be grounded in addressing environmental problems and kind

When interviewed, students with disabilities have definite desiredoutcomes from their accommodations [7]. They would like to learn self-advocacy skills that willallow them greater autonomy. They want to be prepared for careers from hiring to day-to-dayskills to succeed. Students also want to be full members of the university. This requires theuniversity to change the physical environment, knowledge, and awareness of social issues relatedto disability and promote inclusive teaching practices.Post-Secondary Students with DisabilitiesAccording to the NSF [8], 9% of the US population has

I was alsotransparent about how the dataset would be used, with an aim of studying our teaching methodsso that students in the CS capstone continue to have an enriching experience that benefits themwhether they pursue a career in industry or graduate school.While students could opt out without penalty, everyone who was present in my tasking sessionsultimately decided to participate.
