Further research isneeded to investigate the potentially causal nature of the relationship between unified voice andgroup agency.This analysis of the formation of teams for creating change in academia highlights the processesthrough which team members develop unified voice and group agency. Improving ourunderstanding of the formation of teams that are advancing equity is fundamental to developinginsights into how these teams can be equitable themselves.

, deficit ideologies, andracialized ideologies are rarely questioned. This position paper takes a deeper exploration of twocrucial concepts that underpin the hegemonic discourse of Whiteness: meritocracy andcolorblindness. These two concepts are fundamental in the discussion of Whiteness becausechallenging them means rejecting the objectivism embraced in engineering while naming andacknowledging white privilege. The concept of meritocracy asserts that individuals are rewarded based solely on theirindividual effort, implying that people get what they deserve in life through their hard work anddetermination [12], [13]. Conversely, and often unstated, is the implication that those who areunsuccessful are responsible for their lot in life

Prior to building the prototypebridge, youth were instructed to write down their zone choices and justifications for building onthem on the worksheet.

Based on his study heuncovers what he defines as a diversity regime or, “a set of meanings and practices thatinstitutionalize a benign commitment to diversity, and in doing so obscures, entrenches, and evenintensifies existing racial inequalities by failing to make fundamental changes in how power,resources, and opportunities are distributed.” pg. 141 [11].His focus lies in looking at how diversity work actually unfolds, thereby providing anunderstanding of the stumbling blocks.

This means there is anopportunity for finding ways that instructors can influence their classroom environments andsculpt their curriculum and delivery to create inclusive course environments and promote accessand efficacy in engineering education. Second, essay writing and critical thinking tasks centeredon understanding of the potential social impacts of engineering have been demonstrated as aneffective means to engage students in sociotechnical thinking [9].There is overlap between these two pedagogical applications of rhetorical practices and strategicdiscourse and the premise that

Engineering education researchers have sought to study facets and intersections ofracism [1-8], heteropatriarchy [4-10], capitalism [5, 6, 10], and militarism and colonization [8,11] within engineering. In many ways, engineering education researchers have shown how thesefacets are fundamental to what is currently considered engineering epistemology.

Each group creates a synthesis of what is now known; our experience is that they do not have difficulty with this, possibly because of the dual perspectives they have taken. They summarize a joint position to which both sides agreed. Subsequently, they (a) prepare a cooperative report with each member of the group selecting a topic supporting the synthesis and writing a paragraph supported by the research; (b) combine their paragraphs into a single paper and refine the flow of the paper; (c) present their conclusions to the class

These types oflower-recognition tasks also can include “office housework”—planning social events, gettingcoffee for colleagues, coordinating meetings. Some of these tasks carry more organizationalsignificance than do others, as they can sustain networks, communication, and projectmomentum, but few are rewarded in the way that strategic stretch work can be; Babcock et al.[8] write that these are tasks people generally do not want to do as part of their jobs and wishwould be completed by others.And yet some groups do them, and do them more than other groups do, even among those in thesame profession and role. Sociological and economic research shows that gender
