latest technology with new knowledge and design.7 Technology is chosenand mediated by those in social power and domination, which has traditionally been anexclusively male domain.8 This domination has led to a monopoly of male engineers in controlof the technological knowledge and its power upon society. Male dominance in technology andengineering has rendered gender invisible in the science of design and technology. There is adanger in this rendering as it assumes gender as being non-relevant within the social creation oftechnology. Yet, “universities still tend to reproduce this professional engineering culture and thecorresponding social habit in favor of men” 9 resulting in research and design laboratories asprimarily male dominated spaces

There the teachers were exposed to working systems and were able to discuss with theArmy Corps of Engineers the real-world complex problems that they had to solve on a day-to-day basis. A tour of the School of Engineering labs was also provided to expose participants toother problems being solved in laboratory environments.Overall, the summer workshop presented engineering and engineering design principles to theteacher-participants and then allowed them to experience hands-on application of thoseprinciples.

When students dohave access to courses, there may be disparities in enrollment rates between different studentsubgroups. When students do enroll in CS courses, there still may be inequities in terms of whichstudents feel included and which students ultimately benefit from participating in those courses.The relationships between the four components of CAPE and examples of equity issues toaddress within each component are represented in Figure 1.

Given the number of technical coursesin the curriculum, students have ample opportunities to develop effective communication skillsthrough laboratory reports, design and feasibility projects, and technical presentations.

The agenda isbased on a standardized template (see Appendix 2) developed by the course coordinator. As a team,the students are held accountable to develop an agenda, run the meeting and complete a writtenrecord (meeting minutes) of what was discussed.

racial identity (i.e., visibility ofPOC) was often equated with inability and stereotypes in engineering [40]. Thus, claiming thatcolor-neutral attitudes exist in engineering negates the lived experiences of POC and thehypervisibility they are constantly exposed to in classroom, laboratories, or team activities.Colorblindness, and the idea that attitudes and behaviors in engineering are race-neutral, alsolead to issues of “otherness,” racialization, and cultural dissonance [41], [42], all of which havedetrimental effects on students of color. Moreover, colorblindness institutionalizes racism without asking for accountability whenracist acts occur. For instance, McGee argued that racism in STEM continues to exist becauseracially hostile
