Whether it be performance arts like theatre andmusic, or be it a laboratory setting like physics or biology, student performance can beeffectively accentuated by adopting creative instructional lesson plans (Baxter-Magolda, 1992).Furthermore, many of our educational institutions have tried to move away from emphasizing theestablishment of a strong knowledge base (Young and Young, 1999). In other words, one cansay that declarative learning should only be a part of the learning process. It is important torecognize the fact that the discovery approach is gaining prominence day by day.Instructional Modules

In past research and curriculum development, engineering teachers haveimplemented curriculum around STEM-focused games [1], such as for urban planning [2],transportation engineering [1], chemistry education [3] and computational thinking [4]. Due tothe increased interactive engagement of games compared to lecture [5], [6], [7], engineeringeducators have utilized games to positively impact students' learning.

].”ProcessThe current equity-centered effort at the University of Michigan’s College of Engineering (CoE)began coalescing during a 5-year DEI strategic plan, which was launched in 2015. During thesummer of 2020, however, the experiences of the “double” pandemic [24] accentuated theurgency of implementing the plan. As a result, the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Education(ADUE) formed a committee to plan, socialize, iterate, and execute on a race and ethnicityprogram for CoE undergraduate students. The committee members included students, faculty,staff and administrative leaders from the CoE with a variety of identities (white, black, brown,male, and female) and expertise (engineering, social justice, pedagogy, and instructional design).Some of the
