While writing this paper the ARCE 415 section has seven studentsfocusing on mass timber, and in the past thin-shell concrete designs and other complex buildingtypologies have been explored. The class consists of assorted lectures focused on teaching theARCE students about the structural design for this new material or form, group meetings withstudents from the other disciplines, and a comprehensive team project that the ARCE studentscontribute to by producing the structural system calculations and construction drawings. Thesetechnical deliverables are reviewed by the ARCE course instructor and revised to produce a finalreport package as well as

Each called into question or doubted whether theirexperiences should be labeled as mentorship. These were not anticipated responses fromparticipants choosing to participate in a study about effective mentorship [7], [8]. While otherparticipants shared negative stories or gave examples of ineffective mentorship, none expressedreluctance or refusal to label their support relationships as mentorship. The seeminglycontradictory combination of providing mentorship while questioning or invalidating one’s ownmentorship experiences motivated a closer examination of these faculty members’ stories todetermine what lessons could

Education, 2023 Work In Progress: A Novel Approach to Understanding Perceptions of Race Among Computing UndergraduatesINTRODUCTIONBlack, Native American, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, and Latinx undergraduates remainseverely underrepresented in computing [i.e., computer science (CS), engineering, andinformation systems] [1]. This is often attributed to student-centered, deficit-based factors suchas a lack of access to K-12 computing courses, culturally relevant role models and curricula, andsense of belonging. However, research notes how racial “othering” in university courses,departments, and cultures from peers, faculty, and staff negatively impact them [2]–[4].Shifting national conversations around race, racism, and anti

role in their decision to persist in or leaveengineering [26-29]. Female-identified students’ sense of belonging and self-confidence have asignificant impact on their persistence [24, 30]. Engineering identity also strongly contributes tostudents’ desires to stay in the field [31-33]. Students who are more interested in and motivatedby the social impact of engineering do not always identify as engineers [25] because of theemphasis on technical engineering work [13]. This is especially concerning in light of recentevidence suggesting that female-identified students place more importance on the sociotechnicaldimensions of engineering than their male-identified peers [23, 34].

Inconclusive or irrelevant responses, as in thecase of a student writing “perhaps” or an answer that was not related to the question, were leftout of the analysis. For question two, answers were coded for each part of the question, resultingin codes like affirmative/affirmative, affirmative/negative, and so on. Some students onlyanswered one part of question two, whereupon their responses were coded in the style ofnull/affirmative. These responses were then tallied up and compared for the sake of easyvisualization.

Although the number of positions tobe hired had not yet been set by the Provost, the Dean had requested six funded positions andproposed to match each of those with college-level funding.

In addition to the adverseeffects on cognition, students of color who are the targets of repeated microaggressions struggleto persist in STEM majors at higher rates than White peers due to a lack of belonging (Johnson etal., 2007; Reid & Radhakrishnan, 2003). Critical race theory (CRT), therefore, is an appropriatetheoretical lens to examine the effects of racial microaggressions. CRT posits that racism isendemic and pervasive throughout American institutions, and education is no exception (DuBois,1920; DuBois, 2004; Gillborn, 2008; Solorzano, 2020). Using a CRT framework in this study,we hope to illuminate how racism may

Further, some groups evidenced use ofproblem typology as a metacognitive aid to direct and redirect their discussion about the problem(e.g. to limit “out of scope” discussion). This differs from the pre sessions, where only one studentexplicitly mentioned the problem type in the pre (but did not get a confirmation from his partner).Similarly, in the pre none of the student groups were reflective about the relevance of their ideasand strategies during the discussion with their peers, which may explain some of the out of scopediscussion.
