fromthose that were based on leadership as a process [13]. The former is based on traditional notionsof a leader as an individual with power and authority based on their position within anorganization or society. It was exactly this notion of leadership that was associated with theresistance encountered in our earlier studies. The latter, leadership as a process, has beenarticulated by many scholars, but we chose to use Northouse’s simple definition of leadership as“a process whereby an individual influences a group of individuals to achieve a common goal”(p.3) [13]. We also use Rottmann et al.’s orientations to engineering leadership: Technicalmastery - “shar[ing] their technical problem solving skills with others through informalmentorship” (p. 7

At one meeting, theengineering leadership debuted a new voice activated software program that would give verbalcommands to the forklift operator as s/he completed tasks. This was particularly designed tosolve the problems of pallet composition. As one engineer explained, simply providing operatorswith a list of products to be placed on each pallet had left them with too much control, and theoperators had begun to assemble

This approach is coupled with the AskNature.org website,which is a public database of biological information organized by a biomimicry taxonomy [37].The cognitive process of this approach is divided into the steps of scoping, discovering, creating,and evaluating (Fig. 2), and is structured around the search for particular biological insights tosolve a given problem. Scoping involves specifying the problem to be solved with operatingconditions, the functions that must be performed, and which life’s principles the design willincorporate. Discovering involves identifying biological systems that have evolved strategies tosolve the defined function(s) followed by abstracting those strategies into possible designprinciples.

TG students had access to computers to use GeoGebra to work individually and collectively. In contrast, in the CG, students had no access to computers, and although some accessed through their smartphones, most of the times was the instructor the only one using GeoGebra to make explanations to the students, while they listened passively.It is evident the positive impact that the redesign of the learning activities had on the learningenvironment from the perspective of the student´s particular

Framed in the negative perspective,there was a decrease in the engagement ratings associated with a decrease in the number ofwebinars a student participated in. This study cannot deduce a causative relationship betweenwhether a student was disengaged because they did not (or could not) participate in a livewebinar, or did whether they chose to not participate in a live webinar because they weregenerally a disengaged learner, or if it was due to some other causal factor(s) (Lumgair

The college president, Marie Klawe, is a woman computer scientist who knows how to make the environment more hospitable.”5One barrier that Harvey Mudd College works hard to demolish is the ‘impostor’ syndrome - “Not seeing one's own reflection in teachers or other students makes one feel as if s[he] doesn't belong. The need for role models to help overcome the ‘impostor’ syndrome cannot be emphasized enough.”5Ramirez concludes with, “One approach to address the leaks [in the STEM pipeline] is morementoring, and by tuning the culture so that students don't feel excluded”. This is essential to thebroader discussion of diversity
