communitycolleges need to be evaluated and assessed before changes are finalized. To facilitate this type ofcollaboration a process needs to be created to assist all institutions involved.For decades California has provided an impressive and effective community college pathway toengineering. As shown in Figure 3, approximately 33% of all UC and CSU engineeringgraduates in 2008 started their Bachelor’s degrees at a community college (individually, 23% ofUC and 41% of CSU graduates). The community college pathway therefore represents asizeable portion of the engineering pipeline in California. For many students, particularly thosefrom underrepresented groups, this pathway to engineering may be the only practical way forthem to access an engineering

[19] found that while ADHD traits did not predict students’overall GPA, they negatively predicted students’ engineering GPA. Engineering GPA does notreflect creativity, so the strengths students with ADHD have are not reflected in exam scoreseither, further undermining the value ADHDers bring to engineering. The misalignment ofADHD traits and numerical academic assessment in engineering helps illustrate one way thatengineering is less hospitable to ADHDers.Fostering creative problem-solving in engineering curricula remains an important goal.Attracting and retaining neurodiverse engineering students and faculty, including

This informed a low-fidelity prototype for initial usabilitytesting to get feedback on high level changes. Students used this feedback to iterate into amedium-fidelity prototype.
