We plan toconsider the characteristics that students are being rated on and if certain identities are scoredhigher or lower in a characteristic compared to others. Understanding trends across identities andaccounting for group variances [11] will provide a better understanding of what impacts ratingsbeyond individual variance, and we can gain this understanding in the next steps of the study.Highlighting the potential conflicts present in peer assessment would serve to advance theimportant equity efforts universities are undertaking across the nation.

Additional work is also planned to review historical data on recurring projects tosee if it provides any additional information.IntroductionThe senior students at Central Washington University’s Mechanical Engineering Technologyprogram are required to complete a year-long Capstone requirement through Senior Project (SP)I/ II/ III.

Tentimes, faculty members said they would discuss classroom norms, and nine times, theycondemned the comment made in the chat. On four occurrences, faculty members noted thevalue diversity brings to the classroom environment; three times, they said they would pause toaddress the comment or would plan to address it in a future class; and, twice, faculty memberssaid they would affirm how Shawna belongs in the class and would invite students to talk tothem one-on-one at a later time. These efforts suggest that most faculty members wanted to callattention to the microaggression and
that valueslearning-centered inclusive instruction using evidence-based teaching (EBT) methods. Theoverarching goals for the project are to increase student preparation and retention in STEMdisciplines.We seek to meet these goals via a number of different thrusts (or categorized interventions),which were described in more detail in a previous paper [1]. Now, the project (funded by a five-year NSF-IUSE implementation grant, following an NSF WIDER planning grant) is in its no-cost extension year and we are positioned to do some reporting on project impacts, along withsharing some lessons learned.We will begin by reviewing the program thrusts and estimating the number of faculty, graduateassistants and/or students impacted, as appropriate.

The second summer ran much smoother.Adjustments due to COVID-19CSUN, like most other universities, switched to a virtual environment for all instruction in March2020. All of our year-long projects were also conducted virtually. Final presentations at the end ofMay 2020 showed that many of the projects experienced some disruption. Furthermore, most ofour plans for widespread dissemination about our program were also disrupted by COVID-19.Covid-19 directly affected several students who became sick or had relatives die. While several ofour graduating seniors found jobs, quite a few of the students found the job market in 2020 verychallenging. Undoubtedly, the lockdown and economic disruption

Nonetheless, it is important to have a diverse group of people involved in theprocess of identifying the best strategies [2]. The use of workshops to distil the optimal strategies for successis well-documented particularly in terms of their long-term effectiveness in curriculum planning and design[3], [4]. Motivated by the tenets of design thinking, the workshop aimed to avoid how initiatives falterbecause of ignoring the connection between needs and outcomes, and the omission of eliciting prototypesto solicit feedback be it in course design [5], social

In 2006, about 15% of first-year femalecollege students planned to declare a major in all STEM fields combined; but if biological andagricultural sciences are removed, only about 5% of first-year female college students intend tomajor in a STEM area of physical sciences, including engineering [8]. At the same time, morethan a quarter (25%) of first-year male college students declared a physical science major [8].DiscussionFor many years there were few women engineers and even fewer female managers. For example,in 2018 women occupied only 6% of the CEO positions in the Fortune 500 corporations [9]. Therationale has been that from an engineering perspective, women were not

Nearly all students (96%) providedfavorable ratings about the trustworthiness of the video library and most students trusted the MEOnline videos more than other videos available online. They were particularly happy whenfinding videos by their favorite instructors who were clear, engaging, and knowledgeable. Moststudents plan on using ME Online as alumni for both professional and personal reasons – 88% ofthe students reported they expect to use ME Online to study for licensing exams, graduate schoolwork, professional work, and/or just to learn new things.The study also explores the potential for video libraries like ME Online to help addressachievement gaps among historically disadvantaged

For example, some RESP Scholars did not have access to APcoursework in high school. STEM students who enter Rice with weak math skills are at aparticular disadvantage, as most STEM degree plans require students to complete calculus andcalculus-based physics courses simultaneously in the first year.This disparity in educational access and preparation was identified as a contributing factor toinequitable STEM degree attainment outcomes at the university, precipitating RESP’s founding.To address these disparities, the residential summer component of RESP
choices and motivation as well as the focus on the personal importance of a given task.In this work, we focus on two particular aspects of EVT: Utility Value and Expectancy for Success.Utility value refers to how a particular task relates or contributes to an individual’s future plans orgoals, while expectancy for success refers to an individual’s beliefs about how well they will doon upcoming tasks in the future (Eccles & Wigfield, 2002; Wigfield & Eccles, 2000). We focuson utility value because prior research has shown that when students can articulate the ways inwhich course content is personally useful or important to them, they are more likely to engage withthe material and perform at higher levels (Canning et al., 2018; Kosovich
