Therefore, the stories were notcreated to be analyzed in this paper. They were created to be disseminated to a broad, diverseaudience. This method limits the amount of information that can be extracted from theparticipants. It is also important to note that these personal experiences with public-inspiredscience were early in the students’ graduate career, and that many of the students continued toparticipate in other citizen science projects and later produced documentaries of their work(Battle, 2020; Kriss and Hockman, 2020; Patton, 2020; Purchase, 2020; Lopez, 2021

Because data for the pilot course was considered a success by the collaborative team, thecourse was implemented and has since grown in the number of sections offered each semester.Since the piloted course in 2007, the curriculum, class size, and credit hours for the targetedcourse stayed the same as the pilot. The one exception was that the number of course sectionsavailable to students has increased. We believe that other colleges and universities would benefitfrom a detailed description of the targeted course projects, assignments, and exercises.

The designs weredriven by fundamental fluid mechanics principles that were applied by the student. This forcedthe student to think outside of the box and develop critical thinking ability.

has repercussions. That’s a good lesson for our kids to learn in every part of their life, but especially engineers because engineers have power that is magnified throughout their projects. An engineer of something small and inconspicuous could eventually be used to do something catastrophic or damaging to a certain subset of people. And that responsibility falls on the engineer to be wise about the choices that they make on the drawing board, because eventually these choices will be translated into concrete and steel and machinery. So, I think having a conversation about ethics would be worthwhile to have for sure.To synthesize the 14 interviews conducted, most teachers considered environmental and/orsocietal impacts important
