reconsider the role that spatial skills actuallyplay in training engineers. This paper argues that spatial skills testing and training interventionsare a misuse of the time and energy of people who want to help women and other historicallyexcluded students succeed in engineering. We must reframe our interventions withoutperpetuating deficit models about cognitive abilities like “spatial skills,” a construct which, inspite of its wide popularity in the STEM education community, has been very poorly formulated.References[1] S. G. Vandenberg and A. R. Kuse, “Mental rotations, a group test of three-dimensionalspatial visualization,” Percept Mot Skills, vol. 47, no. 2, pp. 599–604, Dec. 1978, doi:10.2466/pms.1978.47.2.599.[2] M. Peters, B. Laeng

is a paradox of knowingwhat exactly wholly “Scientific” and “Non-Scientific” is and where everyone’s teaching,learning, and research practices lie on this spectrum. Deciding on important technological andpedagogical/philosophical underpinnings for “Indigenizing the curriculum” may help situate therole of AI more transparently and equitably. Using AI programs to thematize the perspectivesand experiences of individuals, groups, and organizations, and using them as a starting point toaddress Indigenous-related concerns in the curriculum may also be useful.References[1] M.

One way students increased the participation of other students was by encouraging sharing, which we define as proactively putting out an open-ended call for others’ input. To be coded as an encouraging sharing move, a student’s utterance had to go beyond simply asking for affirmation or refutation of an idea they themselves had stated. For example, when working on a problem about a firefighting hose, S made an encouraging sharing move when they put out a call for a peer’s idea: S: Yeah. What do you think Abe? What should we do?(2) Acknowledging

Bureau of Labor Statisticsindicated that the number of Asian women professionals were four times fewer than the numberof Asian men in the construction industry in 2022 [20]. Although the two industries are slightlydifferent, these statistics imply that Asian women's experiences cannot be understood simply asinheriting Asian’s privileges. Asian women face a number of challenges when completing their engineering programs.There are few female leaders in civil engineering [21] and even fewer Asian women leaders.Since there are so few Asian women leaders in civil engineering, it is difficult for prospectivecivil engineering students and
