Therefore, engineers andconstruction professionals must consider marginalized communities and underrepresented groupsin the resilient infrastructure development processes associated with hazard risks. Enhancedequality has the potential to boost community adaptability and lessen the unequal allocation oflosses and damages resulting from extreme events.The concept of resilience has gained significant attention focusing on effectively managingdisruptions, challenges, and shocks within systems, particularly in disaster risk management [4].It involves the ability to plan for, absorb, recover from, and adapt to adverse events [5

Furthermore, we presented the participants with very few tasks, so as not tointerfere with the primary aim of participant recruitment. We plan to build on this survey-basedapproach to further develop our ability to measure the targeting of variability in engineeringpractice.Our future efforts will deploy the survey with different populations, which we expect to lead tochanged results. For instance, younger individuals with less life experience may not targetvariability even in “everyday” scenarios.In the long run, we aim to use this study of variability targeting to develop a fundamentalunderstanding of this

Furthermore, trainings and professional development opportunities for informaleducators often include short-term experiences (e.g., two-hour workshop) grounded intraditional-focused lectures that reinforce teaching habits (e.g., transmission of knowledge) [18-21].

Second, the elementary classroom, despite high stakes testing pressures in mathematics andlanguage arts/literacy, has the greatest flexibility and opportunity for infusion of engineeringcurricula that can connect with other core subjects such as science and reading.
