circuits course(s). Because mastery of each of thesefundamental concepts is essential for future courses, the use of standards-based grading (SBG) isappealing, as it measures proficiency on an objective-by-objective basis.SBG has been implemented in several fundamental undergraduate engineering courses, includingfluid mechanics [2], thermodynamics [3], signals and systems [4, 5], and software verification[6]. In electric circuits, other grading strategies and interventions have been used, such as usingteam-based learning [7], reflection and metacognition [8], and mastery-based grading [9]. Itshould be noted that, while SBG and mastery-based grading are quite similar approaches, onemajor difference in the author’s approach to SBG is that all-or
United States, the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professionsremain disproportionately white and male when compared with the overall population [1]. This is also thecase with higher education degree attainment [1]. Our university has one of the more diverse studentpopulations in the U. S. [2], and a stated commitment to social justice, equity, and inclusion [3].However, our faculty demographics reflect the national trends in the STEM professions. Thus, ourstudents may not see people like them represented in our faculty or their chosen professions. Representation does matter for college STEM students.

It is equally valuable to examine potential motivations for thesepapers to simply mention Asian American students and what goal(s) these quick mentions serve.It is interesting to see that quite a few of these papers often address concerns of other minoritystudents, such as Latinx students or African American students, while at the same time equatingAsian students with white students. This again plays into the model minority myth, whichwrongly places Asians as the “standard” for what minorities “should” strive for [7] [8] [9][10]. At least 18 papers include language in their abstracts which equate Asian and whitestudents, thus contradicting the claims in other papers which cite Asian Americans as a minoritygroup. While
