This lecture explores the impact of gender on engineering education, focusing on the experiences of women in engineering programs. It discusses the slow progress in recruiting and retaining female students in engineering, the challenges faced by women in male-dominated groups, and the effects of token representation. The presentation delves into the concept of teacher agency through dialogue, collaborative action research, and the importance of a dialogic inquiry for teacher professional development. It also examines the role of implicit biases, gender stereotypes, and the influence of gender ratios on students' group work experiences in engineering education.
