institutions.● We have a particularly high concentration of many emerging best practices including open-ended projects, with an emphasis on team-based work, and high student autonomy. We have noticed ways in which these approaches serve students with non-visible disabilities well and ways in which they present new challenges. We have been working together for the past two years to develop some strategies and best-practices to make these pedagogical approaches even more universally accessible as they become more prevalent across engineering institutions.● Today we would like to share with you some of this work we have been doing at the intersection of disability accommodations and emerging pedagogical practices. We will

She has current funding related to projects that seek to use metacognitive approaches to increase retention of underrepresented STEM students, including an NSF-sponsored project for which she developed and team-taught a course on metacognition for first generation and deaf/hard-of-hearing first year students. As part of an HHMI Inclusive Excellence project, she is also developing workshops to facilitate other faculty members using metacognitive modules in their courses.Dr. Scott Franklin, Rochester Institute of Technology Scott Franklin is a Professor in the School of
