conducted a literature review on inclusive classrooms in order to familiarize ourselves with the existing theories and frameworks on inclusive teaching (e.g., [8], [14]–[16]) as well as the practices on inclusive teaching in STEM education (e.g., [17]–[19]) as noted in the earlier section. In addition to peer-reviewed theory papers, we also reviewed publicly available resources and inclusive teaching strategies shared by Centers of Teaching and Learning across different universities (e.g., [20]–[23]) b.

Over the past five years, we have implemented a teamlead responsibility where each team member leads an experiment. The individual is

academic plan for finishing theirbachelor’s degree, and almost all students (84%) had an academic plan at least for at least the firstyear of their major program. Most (77%) students have checked their academic plan with anadviser at UWT. The most commonly-cited reason for not checking in with an adviser was thatthe standard academic plan was already well mapped out. At least one respondent reportedgetting information about academic planning from peers instead of from an advisor.Next Steps and ConclusionsTo summarize, we seek to increase: a) knowledge of engineering programs and careers, b)successful outcomes for graduation and transfer, and c) a greater sense of belonging andcommunity for our underserved and low income students.
