On occasion, the final projects aresubmitted in some form of electronic format (CD, zip, etc.) [2,5].

looking at ways to increase diversity among science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) faculty, little has been done to increase therepresentation of faculty with disabilities. Moreover, despite recent attention to increasing theparticipation of students with disabilities in STEM education, this work has rarely been extendedto include faculty with disabilities. This paper describes efforts taken by AccessADVANCE, apartnership between two institutions, to influence institutional change to increase theparticipation of women with disabilities among STEM faculty.

This is particularly evident in enhancing Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and SpeechEmotion Recognition (SER). The latter is a specialized area within Automatic SpeechRecognition (ASR) and focuses on identifying human emotions, which is crucial to advancingHCI.

moving away from the one kind of learningthat we know to be most effective, namely, one-on-one instruction. As the need for good teachersat the university level continues to grow, we see this paradox intensifying. And we see theproblem manifesting itself in a particularly nasty way in curricula that predominantly focus oncultivating abstract reasoning ability in future scientists and engineers. The data tells us that aseducators, we are not producing students able to successfully employ context-independentreasoning in technical domains. This is true despite the fact that there has been great progressmade in developing educational technologies and aides for teaching formal, context -independentdeductive reasoning; we refer here to an abundance of
