In practice, theprofessional fields questions about project implementation, while the educator fields questionsabout project requirements. When students are happy with their project, they upload their WARfile to the server and the educator grades it (project grading is not automated).Live, online Q&A sessions are held one evening per week and only last about an hour.Attendance is not mandatory, but we do require students to view the recording if they cannotattend. Even though they are called Q&A sessions, we almost always have something planned. Acommon occurrence is that the educator will share his screen and will begin going through theproject on his computer. The industry

10 codes related to theproject’s overarching research questions around identity formation, makerspaces andunderrepresented students. The codes included “experiences that shape identity,” “road of trialsin engineering,” “stories of values, knowledge, skills, practices and norms in engineering,”“stories of bias, prejudice and stereotype,” “recommendations for makerspaces,” “pathways toengineering” and “aspirations, goals, desires or plans.” These deductive codes developed as aprovisional “start list” served as the first-cycle coding [39].Though all of the codes proved useful in establishing meaning, two of the codes became thefocal points for understanding unique aspects of these students’ experiences in makerspaces:stories of values

program administration view, where Black women recruitment and retentionadministrators in STEM face marginalization and silencing, leading to limitations in decisionmaking and funding decisions at the college and university level [22]. It is common withinworking groups or meetings that relatively privileged groups take up more space inconversations and the voices of minoritized groups are not heard or represented. Onemanifestation of this aspect is the communication of viewpoints by white cisgender womenleaders, who believe they represent all diversity but only represent the experiences of whitecisgender women. It can also occur in male-dominant environments in which co-curricularprogram planning occurs (e.g., a minority engineering program). The

The assessment involves twocohorts: control and intervention groups. The authors are currently collecting data for the controlgroup. Once the VR module is fully developed, relevant data will be collected and analyzed withrespect to the control group. The assessment instruments involve self-report surveys andknowledge tests

Since this isnot a research project, we did not create a control group, since doing so would deprive somestudents of the originally planned pedagogy of the course, which was central to accreditationlearning outcomes. Also, we cannot confidently explain the discrepancy between theconsiderable use of peer-reviewed sources and the limited awareness of assessing credibility inthe students’ initial reflections.

in this work: historically, engineers have not agreed on foundational concerns ordefinitions of engineering. Hence, engineers do not have some form of constitution or bible thatthey can refer to provide any universal answers. To me, one of the best ways to consider current“norms,” as well as the propensity towards engineering in ethics or ethics in engineering, wouldbe to review how codes of ethics have evolved over time.As one noteworthy example, ASCE recently added a Canon 8, “Treat All Persons Fairly.”Subpart C of Canon 8 focuses on diversity: “Engineers shall consider the diversity of thecommunity, and shall endeavor in good faith to include diverse perspectives, in the planning andperformance of their professional services.” This is one
