We also found that, although withdifficulties, they could use their funds of knowledge to establish a sense of belonging inengineering, which is essential for their retention, successful graduation, and transition into theengineering workforce [5].

Furthermore, because the hands-on experiments are often used in a collaborativeway in student teams, the research has also studied the role of gender and ethnicity in the studentteams, developing best practices for building effective teams formed from diverse students.1.
