Itshould be noted that virtual and augmented reality solutions are used extensively in otherindustries. An example is the use of augmented reality in surgery [12] with new developments inHead’s Up Displays progressing rapidly. These would allow the surgeon(s) to stay focused on theprocedure without having to look at multiple screens to interpret digital images, patient data andprogress.

TheCulturally Responsive framework proposes creating student-centered learning environments that affirmcultural identities; foster positive academic outcomes; develop students’ abilities to connect across lines ofdifference; elevate historically marginalized voices; empower students as agents of social change; andcontribute to individual student engagement, learning, growth, and achievement through the cultivation ofcritical thinking [18].

concepts they do not understand [13]. Therefore, the formation of home-culture studygroups could be considered an oppositional behavior because many of the faculty do notencourage it.Another example of community conformism occurred through teaching assistants’ office hours.Students found that TAs were more approachable than professors because they were morewilling to help and were more like peers. At TA office hours, students not only received helpfrom TAs, but also found help and community among other students there who were working onthe same assignments. The final example of community conformism was Student 5’s effort torecruit more minority students to undergraduate research opportunities, thus helping them adapt.We observed one example of
governments and universities [1] [2]. Chile is no exception.In 2019, 28.7% of students who entered STEM disciplines were women, increasing only by 1.3% in2020 to 30%. Family, cultural, economic and social factors influence this under-representation, factorswhich tend to reduce women´s self-concept on learning and ability in this area. Women have lowerself-concept in the STEM disciplines than do men, consequently the dropout rate for women is doublethat of men [3].An intervention was designed aiming to promote and increase self-concept in learning capabilities infirst-year engineering students in Computer Engineering and Industrial Engineering. Such interventionwas based on three types of collaborative activities within the classroom, which seek to

Inparallel with the original CCS [19], the CCS-S measures critical reflection’s two sub-components: (1) perceived inequality and (2) egalitarianism. In addition to the CCS-S items, weadministered eight additional items related to critical reflection, motivation, and action orientedtoward inequities in infrastructure and civil engineering. Data for each dimension of criticalconsciousness was analyzed separately, in accord with original scale design features [18], [19

They also need to recognize that the technical jargon that poses an extralayer of difficulty for linguistically and culturally diverse student populations can be systematicallytaught. Also, and certainly not least of all, teachers need to recognize that informal and out-of-school STEM learning spaces can circumvent the challenges of restrictive school policies and thedemand for more time with students and opportunities to pool from existing funds of knowledgewhile involving parents and assimilating into the society. 10 References[1] L.
