an opportunity for research that can guideimplementation of ungrading and thus enable other scholarship.With the above context in mind, this evidence-based practice paper asks: 1) how do educatorsimplement ungrading in engineering courses? 2) what do educators vary in order to adaptungrading to their unique educational contexts? 3) how can we characterize the pedagogicaldesign space of radical or non-traditional grading schemes? We ask these questions as we do inorder to situate our work as a research through design effort, specifically the approach advocatedby Gaver (2012) in which a set of design solutions are interrogated to determine their invariancesas well as the dimensions of variation. In framing our effort as research through design

I have realized that there are toomany fields of engineering that excite me and plan to go into. Sadly, I cannot do them all. Myinterests are all in the STEM fields, which now I have realized that it is time to narrow it downinto a particular field.”Student 15: “The Mentorship program has been one of the most rewarding experiences as astudent of the STEM field.

found the forum in my engineering space to discuss them. Bearing this experience in mind, I hadn’t realized that I had trained myself to exclude the identities that made me unique when I was doing “real work” and not in an interview. Entering the Engineering and Science Education space as a graduate student, I’ve been exposed to an area of study that gives way to my cultural identity and values the effects and implications they have on my identity as an engineer. However uncomfortable this transition is, it has opened me in ways I had not known was possible. I find myself constantly making connections between my experiences and theoretical frameworks found in STEM education that I wish I could highlight in my writing. In the last two years I

Contrastingly, we took the approach thatit is critical for scientists to be thoughtful and intentional throughout the developing and planningprocess with all the stakeholders. Outreach training focused on the mindfulness awarenessproject goals, the cultivation of community partnerships, and engagement of a non-technicalaudience in a science or engineering topic. After several initial informal education workshops,the students were given the opportunity to tailor their outreach projects to align best with theirpersonal interests, given the following broad topics: 1) Deliver a talk to high school studentsabout their undergraduate experience as a science or engineering major, 2) Write a draft
