The proposed toolkitwill promote potential shifts in educational enacted practices grounded in evidence-basedstrategies and student narratives.Faculty classroom teaching preparation in STEM fields, particularly within engineering, is oftenseverely lacking [1]. Due to the research-emphasis within many doctoral programs, faculty havelimited training as it relates to high impact teaching practices and fostering inclusive learningenvironments [2]. Once in the professoriate, faculty reward structures often prioritize researchproductivity over teaching, leaving little incentive for faculty to hone their instructional skills[3]. While a lack of effective teaching practices is problematic for all undergraduates, there

These challenges suggest not only variability inimplementation but also a critical gap in the standardization of accessible educational practicesacross the field. Additionally, these challenges have been made even more difficult in the onlinelearning environment, where digital accessibility issues increase considerably.
