and implementation of PBL generally takeslonger than traditional lecture-based approaches (Litzinger, Lattuca, Hadgraft, & Newstetter,2011), instructors optimized the use of class time by offloading administrative activities likegrading to teaching assistants, then moving lecture-type content outside of the classroom so thatstudents came to class prepared to engage in discussions and debrief the content and focus onkey points. Class time was also used for hands-on activities and practice and students oftenworked in groups in order to benefit from collaborative learning (Ahlfeldt, Mehta, & Sellnow,2005). With this approach, the engineering educators relegated the basic, lecture-type contentoutside of the classroom and reserved the

theoretical frameworks. This shift is one of theconceptual challenges Borrego [2] identified among engineering faculty learning to conducteducation research. Other challenges included framing research questions, measuring constructs,valuing qualitative and mixed methods approaches, and finding interdisciplinary collaborators[2]. In addition to facing these conceptual challenges, researchers who transition fromengineering to engineering education research may also experience a shift in their academicidentities [4] and their epistemological beliefs, such as what they view as appropriate and validresearch designs [3].Though there has been prior research investigating this transition among faculty [2]–[4], therehas been comparatively less research to

in difficult concepts.The first step for addressing all of the strategies to create a more diverse engineering workforcecan be, at least partially, addressed by helping faculty members to create a more inclusiveengineering classroom that encourages students from diverse perspectives to persist and developrobust engineering identities. To this end, Texas A&M University has recently started severalinitiatives within its newly created engineering education faculty group (EEFG), an organizationof faculty from multiple colleges that choose to collaborate regularly regarding advances in theengineering education arena. The EEFG supports faculty in creating more inclusive classroomswhere diversity and inclusion can be safely discussed in the
