In order to operationalize thehorizontal expertise development in the CTE course, a de-scaffolding approach will be used. De-scaffolding approach involves students developing expertise on a ‘in-focus’ topic while other‘out-of-focus’ topics are scaffolded, and over time ‘out-of-focus’ topic incrementally startcoming into focus as the previously ‘in-focus’ topic is scaffolded [4].2.

[1,2]. In 2018, 57% ofAmerican students in eighth grade indicated that they had taken or were taking one or moreclasses related to engineering or technology, an increase from 52% in 2014 [3]. Engineering maybe taught as a stand-alone topic or integrated with other STEM (science, technology,engineering, and mathematics) fields [1]. As a result, many students entering engineering majorsin college are likely to have some knowledge and/or preconceptions about engineering. It isimportant that from the beginning, students understand the important role of ethics inengineering.Engineering ethics includes both microethics and macroethics. Microethics encompassesindividual responsibilities (such as avoiding bribery and issues such as cheating in an

In these lectures, exemplars producedby the instructor or sampled from prior student work are presented to the students. The classengages in an open discussion about what makes each piece a success or failure. Followingthis period, the instructor or TA gives a demonstration of how to execute the relevanttechnique/tool, including methods of operation, and displays of best and worst practices.Students then rehearse the technique/tool in class or a scheduled out-of-class workshop

However, much of theshared faculty-examples of the new EM-infused content involves adding or revising an existingterm project, or revision of an entire course completely.
