Engineering Education Research Briefs 2.0: Scholars and Scholarship

Amplifying the knowledge and practices of Hispanic Serving Institutions in the pursuit of asset-based approaches to engineering education with Dr. Meagan Kendall


Listen Later

Join us as we discuss life after grant terminations, keeping the work alive and relevant, and staying true to our values as researchers. Dr. Kendall shares with us her journey to engineering education and some insights into her ongoing work - The AMPLIFY Project,  a collaborative effort that leveraged participatory research to explore the knowledge and practices at Hispanic Serving Institutions in the U.S. to understand faculty development along a continuum between deficit-based and asset-based framing of the educational experience. She candidly shares with us the gems uncovered by this project and the subsequent challenges that disruptions in funding have created and how WE, as a community, can help each other keep these impactful efforts going. Dr. Kendall shares an inspirational story for all those engineering faculty considering a line of inquiry in engineering education and hope for the future of engineering education.
