An adjunct instructor and graduate engineering students are hired as teaching assistants. In addition to flipped classroom and traditional lecture instructional methods, the course employs a project-based method where engineering students work in teams of up to six students. All students in all sections (both in-person and online) receive the same team assignments. For their projects, student teams are given the

On the day of the workshop, students were placedin six teams, each with roughly 8-10 students, ensuring that at least two members of every teamwere “experts” on each segment of the module. The workshop provided a space for students tograpple with the major themes from the module and learn from others’ personal lived experiencesand perspectives. Table 1 provides the breakdown of the different segments within the BEDPmodule and examples of the discussion questions students were asked to consider in the workshop.The teams had approximately ten minutes to discuss the questions in their small groups after whichthe entire class discussed each team's responses and extracted recurring themes.

Undergraduate students without muchexposure to alternatives to these stereotypes may not envision themselves as being able to orwanting to do research. At the same time, research experiences may be the most accessibleduring an undergraduate degree at a research institution. Explicitly exposing students to research,especially students who feel they do not fit the cultural stereotype, may be a step to ultimatelyincrease diversity among graduate students and faculty members in engineering.

For example, she examines the role of the “passion principle” in the reproduction of occupational inequalities: how seemingly voluntary and self-expressive career decisions help reproduce processes like occupational sex segregation. Finally, she studies how cultural understandings of the extent and origin of inequality help to uphold unequal social structures. Cech’s research is funded by multiple grants from the National Science Foundation.
