Acontinuing program for innovative teaching techniques has included several experts in the area of classroomassessment. One faculty member spent a sabbatical developing a post-graduation assessment tool for the COE. Anumber of books and other resources were purchased to establish a small “Assessment Library”. All of theseactivities combined to expedite implementation of the COE assessment program.The assessment coordination committee has also been collecting Information from other Institutions. Most programshave been doing some form of assessment in the past, but have not

ineverything we're doing.” Adding more context, this was further expanded on by Ken: [Wellness is] where we consider the unique assets of our students as not only something that should be embraced, but also something that should be encouraged for students to use. Because that way, by using their individual unique assets, that's what will help them innovate and come up with the most creative solutions that are meaningful to them and the communities that they come from. (Ken)Ken believed a culture of wellness could be achieved if engineering coursework includedstudents’ personal motivations and celebrated their diverse skillsets. This asset-based mindset[36] was echoed in the data relating to pedagogies and curriculum

welcoming spaces and engineering narratives. Educators can discuss the prevalence of suchmemes in online spaces and the impact on the perception of engineering, what is engineering,how engineering is done, and who does engineering. By highlighting the problem, educators canstart a conversation about why these stereotypes and depictions are harmful and how they lead tounequal access to engineering.In addition, establishing spaces for these conversations is important if the goal of engineering isto truly become a conduit to innovation and service to society. Establishing safe spaces wherestudents – future engineers – feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics like stereotypes,discrimination, and destructive cultures is crucial for a profession that
