Introduction There has been a concerted effort both nationally and at the local level to diversify thescience, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines and broaden participationfor individuals with a minoritized identity within each field (Basile & Lopez, 2015; NationalScience Foundation, 2020). Such efforts have permeated all educational levels starting in earlyelementary (e.g., enrichment programs) all the way into higher education and industry (e.g.,hiring practices, identity-affirming professional organization). Yet one of the well-documentedbarriers to diversifying the STEM discipline is the current and historical lack of diversity orrepresentation existing within STEM spaces, especially among STEM instructors who

This had been another course where we had previously concentrated on doingexample problems in lectures. Although we made more use of spreadsheets and less use of thePasco Science Workshop equipment than we did in physics, we were able to adapt a number ofphysics exercises including graphing, energy, pressure and fluid mechanics exercises.While we had planned to reform a second environmental technology course, we have beenunable to find the time to do it.
