This data can then be utilized to plan production levels to adequately meetdemand. For these exercises, students simulated the plasma cutter toolpaths for two designs(Pokecenter and Aircraft). If these products were manufactured the aircraft would require moreresources to produce due to the longer machining time and distance. This decreases the number ofproducts you could produce on a single machine during a day of production.4.3 Welding AnalysisWelding is a commonly used joining method for metal assembly, so it is

. Thisdesign problem was inspired by regional events such as the Gold King Mine Spill that occurredin 2015, where over 3 million gallons of AMD contaminated water was accidentally released intothe Animas River, impacting water supplies for rural and Indigenous communities. In NewMexico, there are 15,000 abandoned mines, many of which are co-located with vulnerablecommunities, and there is risk of current and future environmental contamination [11]. Studentswork in teams of 3-4 to research AMD, the Gold King Mine Spill, and novel treatment options.Next, they plan a lab experiment to raise the pH of 200 mL of AMD water from 3 (acidic) to 7(neutral), using their choice of 4 materials: limestone, calcium carbonate, activated carbon, andsoda ash.

(Equity Action Plan, 2022). Additionally, cultural misalignment between standardized engineering curricula and Indigenousvalues presents a significant barrier for Native students. Schools often lack Indigenous educators and rolemodels, and educators may not receive adequate training in culturally responsive pedagogy, limiting theirability to design inclusive curricula (Whitcomb et al., 2021; Ong et al., 2020). This misalignmentreinforces preconceptions of engineering as disconnected from community-centric values, furtherdeterring Indigenous students from pursuing an engineering career.Local vs national perspectives on inclusion in engineering education.

This highlights an area of opportunity for thisproject, as we are planning to start our inquiry with two TCs that the first author identified in herown practice teaching statistics for chemical engineers. However, we could further contribute tothe identification of more TCs by consulting the community of practitioners at the intersection ofstatistics and chemical engineering to find collective agreement on these and more TCs, addingvalidity to this inquiry and opening new spaces for future research.Finally, this literature
