was developed, it makes sense thatthose efforts marked important milestones in the field—in supporting innovation andoccupational attainment. Nevertheless, we understand that intellectual diversity is critical to thefield—after all, innovations in engineering are shaped and informed by diverse cultural needs,priorities, and values. This means engineering education is inextricably linked to society andculture, and therefore, engineering education must also be shaped consistently. Some researchconsiders that "pre-college engineering education is still in its infancy" [19, p. 757]; alsoengineering education is a collaboration practice [18], [20]. For these reasons, I will review thisdiscipline. In the next section, I will discuss one perspective

IntroductionThis Work-in-Progress paper describes a collaboration that aims to integrate art, teaching,learning, research and activist work through the union of four instructors, three undergraduateteaching assistants, and their seven unique ways of knowing that are grounded in our differences- ethnicity, cultures of origin, first language, education, artistic craft, age, class, gender, wisdomtraditions.

modifying the culture of engineering education to improve mental health among underrepresented STEM studentscaused by nothing. And like, it hurts to do everything, to just exist”. Esperanza came to understandthrough our collaboration how her physical disabilities affected other health problems and her mentalhealth as well. “Like even, I think that goes with anxiety, too, and asthma and all that. Like, it's all kind oftied together”.Another consistent finding from all three participants was the invisibility of economic differencesbetween students and particularly the invisible labor that low-income students exert to pay for theireducation and expenses. This issue was particularly salient for Esperanza, who shared how

Being organized as in “staying on top of your tasks” (Student-03),along with having “a positive, upbeat attitude” (Student-03), and being empathetic, patient,collaborative, self-aware and ethical were also important attributes mentioned by students.Learning to manage one’s education. Students responded to the question about what they woulddo differently if they could start over in their engineering education. Most emphasized theimportance of joining organizations, clubs, and making better use of the resources offered by theschool and university (e.g., Career Services and advising). Some described the importance ofhaving an open mind and being more proactive about having a

However, withflourishment of global collaboration in various engineering classrooms and best educationalpractices being replicated across cultures, there are not many curriculum interventions thatoriginate from students’ diverse cultural needs. When cultural differences are ignored, studentsmay get culturally biased grades and face confusion and difficulties. For instance, the notion of“disruption” and “breakthrough” in product design innovation is

His work focuses on mentorship, mental health, and retention in STEM students and faculty. He was awarded the NAGAP Graduate Education Research Grant award to study engineering faculty perceptions of graduate student well-being and attrition. Before study- ing education
can reliably beassessed, technology and engineering teachers should not hesitate to include creativity as anexplicit objective in classroom activities. A combination of self-evaluations, peer-evaluationsand teacher evaluations at both formative and summative levels can be used toward thedetermination of creativity scores as appropriate in a wide range of classroom applications anddisciplines. Members of teachers’ professional learning communities (PLC), in person andvirtually, can potentially collaborate in adaptations of the consensual assessment technique(CAT). These findings are important to discussions of how curricula and assessment methodsmight evolve in technology and engineering education. Further study is needed to developpractical
