After the first prototype was 3D-printed and returned to participants inthe iterative condition by the research team, they could test their designs before making changesto their CAD model for the next round of production. This process was repeated for their secondprototype. After receiving their second iteration, participants in the iterative condition couldmake changes to their CAD model for their final design.Participants assigned to the parallel condition created two prototypes simultaneously followed bya final design (Figure 1, right).

This research has addressed themes of peerrelations, the relation between epistemology and climate, assessment metrics for understandingsystems of power, reflection on problematic norms that frame engineering culture, anduncontested informal practices that produce gendered and racialized inequities across theinstitution.

. ‘Concrete Experience’ describes when a student is exposed tonew information or reinterprets prior knowledge. ‘Observation and reflection’ captures when astudent reflects on new or reinterpreted information. ‘Forming abstract concepts’ is the nextstage where reflection develops into a new idea or modification of an existing idea. The finalstage of ‘testing in new situations’ describes when active experimentation takes place and astudent applies the idea to the real-world [35]. Kolb believed that a student attains newknowledge of new concepts through new experiences, i.e., “Learning is the process wherebyknowledge is created through the transformation of experience” [35].Figure 1.Experiential learning cycleMethodsA qualitative approach was used to

The ongoing collaborative project described in this paper attempts todevelop the cross-cultural sensitivity of Indian and USA students through their reflections oncase studies that present ethical dilemmas in real-world situations. Central questions addressed inthis paper include: 1) How does a pedagogical model based on socio-cultural theory andincorporating cross-cultural activities support undergraduate engineering students in socio-cultural and ethical thinking? and 2) How do engineering students develop their professionalidentities through socio-cultural and ethical discourse?

In a just-in-time fashion, faculty learned and utilized tools such as JamBoard [5] andMural [6]. These tools provided platforms for students to discuss, learn from each other, and stillproduce a product.

The process involves searching students’ lab reports for theirwriting mistakes and sorting the relevant extracts into categories and identifying themes. Eachtheme consists of several errors that are clustered together under one particular construct. It isanticipated that by categorizing students’ mistakes into themes and providing feedback on eachof the themes, students find higher motivation for improvement compared to the situation wherethey are given individual comments on each and every one of their mistakes in an unsorted

inequities they sought to address.Freire characterized this as “false generosity”—as charity offered that does not empower, butinstead fosters dependency. While such aid may help individuals, it also sustains inequities [10].Addressing inequality in engineering education means interrogating the origins of inequalities.Efforts to unravel those systems requires the knowledge of decolonization and engaging indecolonizing methodologies [11]. This is important to reflect on because when organizationsenter a community, they often act in colonizing ways and extend oppressive systemsmasquerading as aid.
