GIFTS: Strengthening Inclusive Group DynamicsWe utilize the Gallup StrengthsFinder inventory [1] to foster diversity and inclusivity in our first-year Introduction to Engineering group projects. StrengthsFinder helps students betterunderstand themselves and others, improving team communication and performance. We alsouse this technique to address stereotype threat. Students discover the diversity of ways eachindividual engineer contributes to the profession through their unique set of strengths.The Gallup StrengthsFinder inventory reveals people’s top five strengths. These strengthsdescribe the individual’s natural talents or dispositions: domains or environments that energize.The thirty-four strengths fall into four

Second, many efforts to embed CT in school coursework have been limited tocomputer science or computer literacy classes, despite CT’s promise for all disciplines [2], [4].To broaden participation in computation – in part by expanding notions of what “counts” ascomputation [3] – more empirical work is needed to refine educational design principles forembedding CT in K-12 settings for all disciplines, including engineering.In this NSF DRL funded project we use “smart” (automated) tabletop greenhouses to engagemiddle-school youth in practices of computation, engineering, and environmental science
