Session Description

Despite substantial investments to improve outcomes for minoritized students, Black and Brown engineers remain underrepresented in engineering education and the workforce. Several studies have revealed how systemic inequities are baked into engineering education. However, there is a need for scholarship that advances our understanding of actionable systemic changes that center equity and challenge the exclusionary cultural norms perpetuated in engineering education. Moreover, the importance of timing of this conversation cannot be overstated, given the surge of anti-DEI policies and laws since 20 ... (continued)

3. Nicole Adia Jefferson

   Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

   Nicole Adia Jefferson’s current graduate research assistantship explores how leading engineering schools have successfully recruited, retained, and graduated diverse cohorts of engineers. Because of this ex- posure, her research interest are investigating the gap between the stated DEI goals of exemplary engi- neering colleges and the actual experiences of their students. Nicole’s commitment to educational equity is demonstrated by contributions to curriculum development, notably with the National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering, where she developed programs to help high school stude ...

Session Description

This workshop aims to assist instructors, including professors, graduate-teaching assistants or any other engineering educators, in developing competency to accommodate students with disabilities in their classrooms. Participants will be provided with insight into the importance of accommodations, empathy, and proactive accessibility based on prior data and personal experience. In small groups, participants will participate in group discussions, case studies, hands-on learning of software, and gamified visualizations, where they will learn how to make visuals and audio accessible, communicate emp ...

Session Description

Have you ever wondered how you could set yourself apart when applying for jobs after graduate school? What knowledge, skills, and attributes should you highlight in your applications? This session will provide you with an Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) framework that ties back to elements that can be helpful for future careers (academic, industrial, government, etc.). The session will employ concept maps to help identify EM elements that you may have already developed and include a panel with current graduate students discussing how EM has contributed to their career development. The session will c ... (continued)

Session Description

Join us to explore the transformative impact of Engineering for US All (e4usa)!

In this 90-minute session, we will delve into e4usa's journey over the past six years as an NSF-funded project while highlighting the strong research foundation that underpins the newly formed 501(c)(3) e4usa nonprofit organization. We will present a subset of our team’s research findings spanning more than two decades and discuss how this research has shaped e4usa's trajectory. Specifically, we will review research findings on assessing student learning on open-ended, team-based engineering design projects, ... (continued)

Session Description

The purpose of this session is to introduce participants to the concept of person-centered approaches and critical quantitative frameworks such as QuantCrit. A person-centered approach refers to a set of methodological approaches that contrast with traditional statistical methods often employed in engineering education research, such as t-tests, analysis of variance, and various types of regression. A person-centered approach is used to understand the latent groupings inside in the sample, which involves exploring how variables combine across individuals instead of how the measured variables predict the value of others.
