Despite this interest, few university science or engineering programs dedicateformal coursework in public communication to undergraduate or graduate students 21. Whenprograms do offer such training, they are usually limited to teaching students to write intraditional genres such as press releases, newspaper-style articles, and essays13, 14, and fail toconsider more personal, informal, and affective forms of communication such as face-to-faceconversations that can occur through science cafes or street science 22, 23 or to make use ofmultimedia genres such as podcasts, blogs, or

Her research to date has focused on educational designs that emphasize learner ini- tiative and agency through inquiry or problem-based learning in formal and informal learning contexts. She has published several papers on the characteristics of learning environments that support or constrain opportunities for any students (including those from non-dominant backgrounds) to participate in key science and engineering process skills such as scientific argumentation. Her work is largely informed by the principles and perspectives on human development and cognition articulated by Cultural Historical Activity Theory. Putting theory into practice, she teaches a service-learning

teaching career by teaching several labs as a graduate teaching assistant and later on as an adjunct faculty. While at Towson University, he also cultivated good friendships with his advisors and now mentors: Dr. Rajeswari M. Kolagani and Dr. David Schaefer. His research led to his first publication a few years later. Forced by destiny, he ended up at Norfolk State University where he is now pursuing a PhD degree in Material Science focusing on optical characterization of materials for energy harvesting. Through the IGERT fellowship, he is pursuing his ultimate goal of becoming a professor and intends to carry on research in optical materials. - See more at: https://www.asee.org/public/person#sthash.lcrL5s3P.dpufMr. IRVING

What is not often taught, however,are the various skills necessary in the social processes that make teaming effective:communication, delegation, and conflict resolution, to name a few [30]–[32]. The socialcircumstances in which these skills become relevant can reveal hidden epistemologies that guidethe teaming process, especially when gender differences and dynamics are considered [21].Within engineering, these epistemologies are woven into the culture of engineering learningenvironments and often the engineering field itself [18].
