Appendix B). Thefocus of this paper is on the first three phases.Plan: The plan phase focused on determining if case study methodology is compatible with theproposed study and forming the research questions. Based on these findings of the scopingreview, multiple-case study was chosen as the methodology. This study will examine a widearray of course types, focus on individual courses as opposed to the whole curriculum, andincorporate interviews of faculty of the courses examined. Given the varying types ofengineering courses within the curriculum (i.e., first-year, technical, elective, design, etc.), thisapproach allows for a more complex and nuanced understanding of how different courses shapethe curriculum, as each course type may require

The disconnect of earning good grades while not needing to putin meaningful work towards achieving them is a learned behavior which can harm students inhigher education, and it’s a difficult behavior to correct.

correspondinggraduation rates. Some of those categories, notably the lower grades in Calculus 2 and 3, had a small numberof individuals and were categorized as “low N” because there wasn’t enough data on which to baseconclusions.The resulting analysis is shown in Table 6 below. Graduation rate follows the expected overall pattern ofbeing higher for students with higher grades in first-semester math courses. It can be seen that students whoreceive an A in precalculus in the first semester are in the second-highest category and have a significant(63%) probability of earning an engineering degree, but that there is a large gap between this and other gradesin precalculus (B=35%, C=15%, D=8%, E=1.5%, W=0%).

Further, the number of multilingual learners in US public schoolclassrooms are rapidly increasing, necessitating new practices by teachers and support structuresto better assist these students’ learning. A major motivation for our work is to counter theassumption often made within formal education in the US that these emergent multilingualstudents do not have the capacity or linguistic skills to engage in conceptually challenging topicssuch as science, engineering, or STEM inquiry.Our work emphasized a sustained professional development project with elementary
