For this portion of the lecture, design justice[25, 28] and algorithmic accountability [25, 29] were addressed. The lecture concluded with thepresentation of the “Oath of Non-Harm for an Age of Big Data”, developed by Eubanks [26].Introduction to Podcasting (Science Communication, Lecture 4): Students completed apre-lecture assignment, which entailed listening to two short podcasts and answering guidedquestions about what they learned, what was interesting and what was disinteresting

The advantages offered by the Internet maybe exploited to create a valuable educational experience for the student that cannot be duplicatedin the formal classroom. These advantages include: i) convenient access to the course from anylocation and on any schedule; ii) an added level of communication of the scientific conceptsthrough well-designed audio-visual content (including voice, simulations, animations, pictures,and video); iii) the students’ control of the pace of the course; and iv) the ability to easilyintegrate problem solving with the “lecture” component of each lesson.

Accordingly, programs that require multiple campus visits may lose part of theirmarket because of inconvenience to the students. Schedule and travel conflicts have beenidentified as one thing preventing students from engaging in a graduate program(3), and thusrequiring multiple residential experiences can be off-putting to a potential student.

These approaches are touted as toolsfor enhanced creativity that help align narrow problem solving in any domain with actual humancapabilities and experiences—and hence the broader human condition [1]. Engineeringeducation, in particular, has been impacted by the rise in use of human-centered design problem-solving and educational approaches, largely for the better.

the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine(NASEM) mentorship in STEMM focuses on research development (career support) andpsychosocial support (psychological and social development) [4]. Despite this description ofwhat STEMM mentoring relationships should entail, some mentors do not consider thepsychosocial support of graduate students their responsibility [16]. This lack of engagement inpsychosocial support can influence the self-awareness of the mentor and the mentee, which tendsto show up in the form of (mis)communication between the mentor and mentee. Studies havefound that faculty tend to react negatively to students who attempt to address their mental health,and faculty are less likely to initiate conversations about

Ultimately, such changes may correct previously exclusive signals, both subtle andexplicit, that impact student belonging and thus make it more likely that minoritized groups willpersist within STEM [8]–[10].However, less of this critical examination of higher educational practice has focused on thegrading itself and the choice of scoring mechanisms that instructors use to describe theperformance of their students. Generally, the benchmark by which instructors may judge theefficacy of inclusive teaching practice has been an increase in exam scores or final grades.Essentially, an
