? What evidence is required to document a successful innovation?Engaging the Community – Our ProcessesA major emphasis of this project has been to engage audiences of the engineering educationcommunity (e.g., engineering education researchers, early adopters of engineering educationinnovations, engineering administrators who will promote propagation). During year one of theeffort, we engaged the community via three primary processes. The first two processes involveda Delphi study with subject matter experts (SMEs) from across the engineering educationresearch and administrative spectrum. The purpose of the Delphi study (conducted during thewinter and spring of 2015) was to identify the most critical unresolved issues facing engineeringeducation

workshop and research project focused on their unique challengesand strategies that enable them to survive and thrive in the academy. This paper summarizes the outcomesof the Intergenerational Mentoring Workshop held Summer 2019 and aims to equip the broaderengineering education community with insights for supporting this endangered demographic. Theworkshop was attended by 24 African American women engineering faculty who represented a widerange of roles in the academy. The day-long workshop consisted of multiple sessions in whichparticipants shared their insights, challenges, and promising solutions. This paper includes the results ofqualitative and quantitative data collected from a focus group with a subset of participants, observationsmade by
and graduate students through their engagement in laboratories,discussion sections, and mentoring activities. It is essential to train graduate students in effectivepedagogy, including teaching methods that promote student-centered learning, reflective teachingpractices, and engagement of a broad diversity of students. This investment in graduate studenttraining pays dividends in an enhanced learning environment for students now and in the future asgraduate students go on to careers that often include teaching and mentoring as core skillsets.This paper details an instructional improvement project targeting a pedagogy course for first-yeargraduate students in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at a large, public, research
