NGOs decision-makingwith respect to the communities they serve. So it is ultimately their commitment andaccountability to their values (see 4.1.1.1 above) and accountability practices that determinetheir downward accountability with communities.Three key variables determine how NGO accountability to communities is reflected inpractice: depth, openness and frequency. Depth is related to communities' access to NGOmanagement, what knowledge communities have of NGOs, how relevant topics discussed atmeetings are to communities, who gets to speak at these meetings, and how controversialissues are handled at these meetings. Openness is reflected on meeting’s agenda, format andconduct. Can community concerns be formally aired during meetings with them

Moredetails about the rubric and the grading scheme are described in [8,9].Locating, classifying and correcting errors on exams can be a very important part of the learningprocess. This is referred to as reflection by cognitive scientists [2], and we prefer that studentsrather than graders glean this benefit. We hope that this process leads to higher accuracy andgrades in the future, all while developing an engineering mindset for checking work and locatingmistakes.Early and Frequent Assessment. In this new course design the timing and frequency ofassessment is important. It is recommended that students get two or three early assessmentsduring the first five weeks of the semester.

Blog entries aswell as and question/answer forums can clarify points of confusion from in-class conversations.Students have more time to reflect and answer questions posed online than in the classroom.Perhaps most importantly, blended learning requires students to work more on their own for theonline portion of the class. This active learning has been shown to yield greater test performanceand subject mastery [4, pp. 22-23]. Flipped classrooms are a subset of blended learning, but the rapid increase in theirpopularity make them worthy of examination. The underlying idea for a flipped classroom is thatteachers assign students to

able to see their future selves as scientists. If there is a gap between the perception ofself and one's' imagined future self, identity incongruence will occur. Alston [30] states “Identitycongruence speaks to the space between how black men see themselves and how they see otherscientists” (p. 50). Identityy incongruence can be problematic for URM students and can serveas a deterrent for those students seeking graduate degrees in STEM. Guy [20] further explainsthat “pathways to science learning” (p. 23) are in part determined by how they understand whoand what a scientist looks like. To the extent that students do not see themselves reflected in thetraditional image of scientist, they might be best steered toward an “everyday

Veryoften, students will achieve success in one or two of the three learning objectives for parallelprograms: 1) Correct numerical methods with verified mathematical accuracy and precision. 2) Correct C and C++ programs that run without error. 3) Parallel programming that provides significant speed-up on parallel hardware.The value of the course re-design to de-emphasize the exam-based programming frees up timefor students to repeat a programming problem with greater mastery (speed-up achieved,numerical accuracy and precision, algorithmic correctness, and efficiency).

Although post-survey results for the ETSC 277 course shows a dropin confidence, as students performed our inquiry-based engineering lesson, we view this as arecalibration of their personal reality as they were ultimately able to make positive learning gainstoward our robotics lesson. This was reflected in learning assessments throughout the quarter. Infact, student frustration with inquiry-based lab curricula is well documented in science education,where lab students valued more authentic scientific exposure. In general, experiencing thecomplexity and frustrations faced by practicing scientists is challenging and may explain thewidespread

When I first attended the university to learnengineering, I was full of the messages of the 1970’s: Women can do anything men can do(better), I can have it all, the doors to access professional success are wide open. However, littledid I know that while this may be true, the cost to anyone not a tall white male from a privilegedbackground was great. It took me years to interpret what I experienced through the lens of thewhite patriarchy, but for the last 20 years, I have studied and reflected on how we in Engineeringand Education have participated in the inequities we see all around us
