Thirty-six engineering educatorsfrom 13 HSIs in Arizona, Florida, New Mexico, and Texas attended one of two workshops in the springof 2018. Participants engaged in individual and group activities that helped them reflect on their studentsand actively design an educational innovation for their institution, using information previously gatheredthrough interviews with students. Qualitative analysis of the data across the thirty-six educators at bothworkshops identified differences between how instructors describe characteristics of Latinx engineeringstudents across regions and instructor type.

, soteaching staff are dealing with larger workload [6], [8]. Consequently, they spend less timereflecting about curriculum and teaching practices [9], [10], and they resist to fulfillingadditional assessment requirements at a program level [4]. Besides lacking opportunities to reflect, most faculty lack opportunities to collectand analyze meaningful learning data due to the complexity of assessing student learningoutcomes on a program level [11]. To deal with this challenging but essential task,teaching staff rely on both quantitative (e.g., quiz results, test scores, mid-term students’satisfaction and end-of term evaluations) and qualitative data (e.g., open-ended responsesto end of term comments from students and colleagues) to identify

Throughout the course,students are asked to reflect on who gets to be a scientist or engineer, who defines whichquestions researchers ask and which problems engineers solve, who benefits from thesesolutions, and what role social justice plays in science and engineering practice.Throughout the course, we explore these inter-related questions: 1) How do our cultural ideas about race, gender, disability and sexuality influence science/engineering knowledge and practice? 2) On the other hand, how does our science/engineering practice influence our cultural ideas about race, gender, disability and sexuality? 3) How can we use science and engineering

In a subsequent report, Kuh found that students whoparticipated in these HIPs show that they were positively affected by these activities, asmeasured by the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). It was found that these“deep approaches to learning are important because students who use these approaches tend toearn higher grades and retain, integrate, and transfer information at higher rates [2].” Thus,what we set out to do is to apply HIPs to a 300- level engineering course at a state collegelevel and gather data regarding its effectiveness, student reflections, and possible futureimprovements for better learning outcomes.HIPs in a Mechanical
