[29] found thatactivities aimed at broadening participation of underrepresented groups in STEM fields were lessfrequently reported. Kamenetzky [30] reported that teaching and training were commonly cited,followed by broad dissemination and infrastructure enhancement. Cultural differences amongSTEM fields and political considerations may play a significant role in the types of broaderimpacts mentioned or omitted in research proposals [24], [30] .

' access to CSEdmay be unevenly distributed across different types of schools and districts. When students dohave access to courses, there may be disparities in enrollment rates between different studentsubgroups. When students do enroll in CS courses, there still may be inequities in terms of whichstudents feel included and which students ultimately benefit from participating in those courses.The relationships between the four components of CAPE and examples of equity issues toaddress within each component are represented in Figure 1.

racial identity (i.e., visibility ofPOC) was often equated with inability and stereotypes in engineering [40]. Thus, claiming thatcolor-neutral attitudes exist in engineering negates the lived experiences of POC and thehypervisibility they are constantly exposed to in classroom, laboratories, or team activities.Colorblindness, and the idea that attitudes and behaviors in engineering are race-neutral, alsolead to issues of “otherness,” racialization, and cultural dissonance [41], [42], all of which havedetrimental effects on students of color. Moreover, colorblindness institutionalizes racism without asking for accountability whenracist acts occur. For instance, McGee argued that racism in STEM continues to exist becauseracially hostile

Not everyone is cut out for engineering, not everyone has the natural intelligence, the grit, the academic background necessary for success. Certain students are struggling in this class, especially the students from disadvantaged backgrounds and groups. They ask a lot of questions in office hours, they work slowly, they seem lost in laboratory sessions. If they are struggling so deeply and so early, perhaps they aren’t going to make it. We feel bad for them and would like to help, but aren’t sure how to motivate them or catch them up. Do they need extra office hours? But there’s not time to help
