How many times had she attended diversity,equity, and inclusion (DEI) trainings that opened up wounds of workplace trauma but didnothing to repair and restore her in the workplace? Although Engineering Education professed tobe open and inclusive, why were there no public conversations by leaders about the profession’sintentional and unintentional harm to Black women?My White Woman PerspectiveWhen I was hired into my position with Dr. Cox as my supervisor, I was in the months ofSummer 2020

-rebound process, and 3)indirect policies with equity impacts. Our data does suggest that underrepresented women ofcolor are less likely to be enrolled in undergraduate engineering education over time in anti-affirmative action states (independent of the specific ban timing). A key take-away from thisfinding is that affirmative action bans may be a symptom of preexisting “chilly” conditionswithin a state. In comparison to other historically excluded groups, UWOCE students maytherefore be more concerned with or impacted by the perceived social and political climate of thestates in which they seek to study. We conclude by echoing Ong et al.’s argument [25] that thechanges necessary to foster belonging for all students in engineering education

noted thatwe advocate for inventiveness irrespective of patenting outcomes or the development of world-changing technology; we believe that cultivating inventiveness early, often, and across diversepopulations will result in these distal outcomes and a more diverse set of future leaders, but thesewill still be a small subset of the inventions and inventiveness that is cultivated through theseefforts.The inventiveness of Student WorkWe define inventiveness of products as a combination of novelty, unpredictability, creativity, anduniqueness to the individual(s) who created it.Novelty: A novel product is one that does not significantly resemble existing solutions and/or onethat is not inherently obvious upon examining the problem formulation
work is essential in order to move towards contextual listening practices and ethicalintercultural communication practices. This approach also supports Handford et al.’s [20] notionof “small cultures” and resisting the idea that culture is only an attribute of “foreign people.” Byreflecting on the various cultures they are a part of, students can begin to understand how theirown worldviews influences their approach to engineering (p. 172).In addition, the Design Justice Network offers a series of principles to reframe the way designersthink about how they work with those who are affected by what they create. As we noted earlier,artifacts of engineering culture do not focus on the affected community or, for that matter, theoppressive systems
/social dualism. Social concerns cannot be presented as secondary to engineeringeducation or as an addition to squeeze in when there is a second of free time. In a review editorial,Berdanier [10] acknowledges that there is precedent to integrate the humanities and social sciencesinto engineering education and was called for by founders like Charles Mann (1918) and WilliamWickenden (1920’s). Despite 100 years of various calls to do so, the integration has not gone wellas engineering is perceived as a hard/applied discipline versus a soft/pure field such ascommunication or sociology [10]. Sticking to this distinction allows for the lessons that pertain to“dealing with people” to sit at the margins of the engineering curriculum. Arguably, these need

To meet the publicand private sectors’ need for cybersecurity professionals, universities are adding academicprograms in cybersecurity. West Virginia University, which is a land-grant R1 university with avibrant cybersecurity program that offers a B.S. degree, academic minor, and an Area ofEmphasis (AoE) in cybersecurity, has received an NSF S-STEM grant to increase the numberand diversity of highly qualified cybersecurity graduates by offering scholarships to high-achieving and economically challenged undergraduate students.Our past research was focused on grit and motivation

This method is effective forimplementing new content or revising courses and broader curricula in any discipline. Thebackward design method begins by asking two questions: 1) What do I want my students to beable to think and do by the end of this course? 2) How will my students be different by the end ofthe course?Lessons Learned: Granda found the EOP Framework to be flexible to implement. Facultymembers can choose which student learning outcome(s) their course will address. Using theguidance found in the integration flowchart in Figure 6, educators can take advantage of thebackward course design method, the EOP Framework, and

I am hoping that the students gain knowledge from this assignment but I am already predicting that there will be pushback from the students…I can’t emphasize enough what great timing this interview assignment was with regards to reviewing [Professor D]’s [faculty reflection log] and also working on the ASEE paper focusing on the interview assignment.

But what is clear is that they’re going to rely on fundamentals,because that is how the design process is done.”2. Deep Structure: Teaching for BreadthIn contrast to the mixed reports on teaching for depth, teaching for breadth was observed as apositive outcome for the majority of alumni interviewed. For example, one alumnus mentionedthat the breadth of knowledge in engineering science has provided “metaphors to draw on whenI’m trying to understand a new domain”, while another mentioned that the breadth of knowledge“broaden(s) your scope of knowledge” and gives cross disciplinary perspectives which is usefulas “somebody needs to be the person that

collection [18]. Through GORP, the observer can select codes for observedclassroom activity for both the instructor(s) and students. Observations are coded in 2-minuteintervals until the class session is over. If the observer makes a mistake, they can note it duringthe next interval, and adjust the data accordingly by hand, after class. Data is automaticallyanalyzed in GORP and can be exported to excel for further analysis. COPUS observations arelimited by the fact that a trained individual must label an in-class interaction/behavior in real-time. Multiple behaviors can occur at the same time and some may be missed. This can createsome issues with missed labeling or mislabeling during active learning class activities.Additionally, data are collected

These tangible artifacts werealso coupled with qualitative assessment of the students’ responses.After the students mastered their “Camp Intro”, near-peer mentors introduced pitching theirvery first idea. This idea did not necessarily make it into implementation for their finalprojects. Pitching their idea included communicating the societal need(s) for the technologyand how the team is addressing the need through creation of the technology. Students wererequired to give presentations about any background information surrounding an idea.Students had to identify other applications and how their technology would be different.Students were also encouraged to ask insightful questions to other campers about how theirpotential

As an across-the-curriculummodel, Davis [22] suggested a micro-insertion approach, which introduces small units of ethicsinto technical courses. We will discuss this approach and how this paper’s work might beintegrated into this approach in more detail in the discussion section.Insights from the industry for ethics educationThe workplace provides engineers with opportunities to encounter and experience ethical issues.McGinn [23]’s survey with practicing engineers indicated that most (80.2% in 2001 survey, 89.2%in 1999 survey, and 84.4% in 1997 survey) practicing engineers think engineering students arelikely to encounter ethical issues in their future engineering practice, and
