In this pilotstudy, we (1) delivered a four-day curriculum that focuses on representing engineers from a broad rangeof identities in course materials and (2) piloted an Institutional Review Board (IRB) approvedquantitative survey of subject related identities and demographic data. The goal of this pilot was toevaluate our experimental methods for ease and clarity of implementation.Implementation The goal of this study is to broaden students’ definitions of who can do robotics. To thatend, we revised our introductory curriculum, being mindful of the individuals in the field that wehighlight by giving examples of women and

Each engineering faculty member gave an overview of his/herproject on the second day of the program and gave teachers the opportunity to tour the labfacilities and ask questions before being asked to rank the projects by order of preference on thethird day. Project assignment involved taking the teachers’ preferences in mind, as well as tryingto pair up appropriate skills and backgrounds to each project.

Inaddition, an interesting outcome (theme 2) was that the camps did instill in the campers theconnection of words like “teamwork”, “collaboration” and “communication” to engineering.This has been indicated as a necessity in marketing engineering to the public, including K-12[16]. Finally, an outcome of theme 3 is that we will be giving guidance to the campers on classesthey should be considering to be successful in engineering keeping in mind what has beensuggested in [16].

As students in Math 231 are learning much ofthe material for the first time, they may approach the PLTL groups in a more open-minded fashion, and may be more receptive to the learning tools and additional work thatthey are gaining in the groups. Whereas, if students in Math 116 believe that they alreadyknow much of the material, they may be less interested in devoting effort to incorporatingPLTL group activities into their studies and achieve less benefit from the groups.
