Latinx students and other racial minoritizedgroups (e.g., students who are Black, Native American) remain underrepresented in engineering[27] and have lower persistence and graduation rates [28].Previous studies on ME OnlineIn 2018, a brief survey was administered to 340 mechanical engineering students at Cal PolyPomona as part of a pilot study to investigate the impact of ME Online [1]. The vast majority ofstudents felt the video library made a positive impact on their education and helped their gradesin at least one course.
