faculty beliefs about DEI. We are specifically interested in their willingness topursue change efforts towards producing more inclusive and equitable academic environments.In this full research paper, we aim to answer the research question: What themes emerge incurrent and previous EER on engineering faculty readiness to address DEI topics in theirprograms and classrooms? To capture the ways engineering faculty beliefs are discussed inengineering education literature, we developed a categorization continuum model to map theperceptions of faculty in literature on a scale measuring problematization and readiness foraction. The Problematization-to-Action Continuum (PTAC) ranges from the engineering facultybeliefs of no problematization of DEI topics

: Regardless of which method is used to come up with the POs [Program Outcomes], it is critical that all of the faculty be involved in the process. They should be aware of what TC2K contains, what the POs are and how they are assessed. Part of the accreditation visit is interviewing faculty members and in both visits, when I inquired about the process for developing and assessing outcomes, I found faculty who made statements like, “Well the department head took care of all that.” Clearly, when faculty members make statements like that, it is hard to conclude that the continuous improvement process is institutionalized in the department.At Milwaukee School of Engineering, as we prepared for a TAC of ABET visit

Based on faculty/student integrity and frank upfrontdialogue, “Expectations 101” sets the stage for a transformational rather than transactionallearning experience. The exercise developed for “Expectations 101” uncovers the “hidden”teaching and learning expectations of students and permits the new faculty member to adjust,without compromise, how they will conduct the class.INTRODUCTIONIn order for a new faculty member, particularly one without prior teaching experience, to succeedthey must first acknowledge that they too are a student in the classroom. They are a student thatis learning and developing as an effective instructor and teacher. Brent and Felder (1) stated, “Newfaculty members have had to

Take a minute to give constructive feedback on a test or a quiz in addition to the grade. Instruct your teaching assistants to do the same. 3.

It wasfurther noted that "greater interaction with faculty may not have the same positive effect onengineering students simply because these interactions are less likely to be perceived asfavorable."6While an earlier paper analyzed the sample by gender, these had small to moderate effect sizes.5Quite unexpectedly, academic integration did not favor either gender.
