The university atwhich we are implementing this initiative is a primarily white, private institution in the UnitedStates. We are also located in a state in which such topics are relatively open for discussion ineducational settings. Although the authors hold different identities in gender identity, race,ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and more, we are far from representative ofthe larger population and recognize the need for many more voices in this type of work.INTRODUCTIONEngineering and research have profound impacts on issues of

However, among the few who tried, the use   of a control group and experiment groups was the suggested approach. Others, however, reverted tometrics they think are most important when assessing the impact of a cyberlearning award. Many participants said that the metrics used to assess the impact of a cyberlearning award shouldbe based on the subject and the context (i.e

More experienced students can often finish a Stage 2 project in a week or two,although the pace will vary depending on the project and what skills students need to learn. If ittakes more than two weeks for a student to complete stage 2, the mentor can sit down with thestudent and re-evaluate the project goals and adjust the pace if needed.The goal of Stage 2 projects is to give students more practice with the research methodologiesand workflows used in the lab, while also providing the mentor with further opportunities toevaluate the students’ abilities.

Most universities require researchand publication of their faculty for tenure and promotion. To be successful in this process, acandidate needs to show impact. This impact is usually heavily based on citation metrics. Whilethere is a push from some, such as those in the open scholarship movement to change thispractice and put value on other metrics of impact [3], it remains a heavy driver at most academicinstitutions, meaning citation practices have broad impact on who gets recognition in academia[4].

Many engineering graduate students become leaders of research groups orindustry projects after finishing their education. While many institutions train their graduatestudents in research and professional ethics, such training tends to focus on students’ individualconduct. To date, few programs have explicitly sought to improve graduate engineering
