& Research for STEM Equity (CERSE). Her research spans the study of intersectionality, higher education, organizational change, and social movements. Cara uses mixed methods to understand the social mechanisms which may change, or facilitate, the production of inequities within higher education. Cara also manages the evaluation of several NSF- and NIH-funded projects, primarily working with national professional development programs for early-career academics from groups systemically marginalized in STEM fields.Prof. Lilo Pozzo, University of WashingtonDr. Eleftheria Roumeli, University of Washington Eleftheria Roumeli joined the Materials Science & Engineering department at the University of Washing- ton in

I am working on a VR robotic arm project that I started in the summer of 2021. My personal goals are to find a career in computer software, and to develop new technologies to improve everyday life
new material contextually, byattaching it to previous experiences and existing knowledge [3]. Rigid body kinematics is anexcellent subject to draw upon prior knowledge and experiences, as many of these systems areprevalent in the real world. Alternative approaches applied by other researchers teaching the subject have involvedthe separation of rigid body motion from the mathematics. In their approach, students observedpractical applications of rigid body kinematics through videos, pictures, and the actual operationof some machinery [1]. The goal of this approach was to provide students with the opportunity todevelop motivations for studying the subject and to later recognize the mechanisms of systemoperations. Other approaches used
perspectives of STEMuniversity education and career paths [1] – [3].This paper describes the development of a new engineering outreach program, Engineering 11,by the School of Engineering, University of British Columbia, Okanagan (UBCO) throughcollaboration with the Central Okanagan School District (SD 23). UBCO Engineering 11consists of several modules covering a wide range of engineering disciplines and subjects, suchas civil, environmental, mechanical, biomedical and electrical engineering, and engineeringethics, aiming to provide senior high school students an opportunity to explore the manydisciplines of engineering and career pathways. The course is designed to be taughtcollaboratively by a physics teacher of SD 23 and faculty and graduate
Engineering. His M.S. and Ph.D. are in Civil Engineering with a focus on fluid mechan- ics. Wade has over 21 years of teaching experience, primarily focused at the University level, but also including 3 years of teaching in high schools. Dr. Goodridge’s current research interests include spatial thinking/cognition, effective pedagogy/andragogy in engineering education, and professional develop- ment. His research revolves around developing and validating curricular methods and instruments to im- prove engineering education in the informal, traditional, distance, and professional environments. Some of his latest work involves teaching Blind and Low Vision youth engineering mechanics and utilizing spatial techniques
norms, laws and ethics, andother socio-material contexts. Developing attunement to broad contextual issues like powerdynamics can determine the outcome of a project, and in fact whether it even will proceed.Thus, raising student’s awareness to the multitude of socio-technical factors that form thesystems that engineers operate in both contributes to understanding of their own role as well asencourages better understanding of complexities and how to engage in meaningful technicalcollaboration in working with clients and stakeholders (Mazzurco & Daniel, 2020).Literature ReviewA vast literature on social protest and labor activism exists across multiple fields, includingorganizational behavior, political science, economics, sociology, rhetoric
