some cases, they were personally impacted by them. For example,one student hadn’t previously considered engineering as related to social justice. She wasn’tinterested in pursuing a career in the technical-focused engineering field, but after seeing theconnections between engineering and social justice, she had a change of heart and wasreconsidering that decision: I also learned that engineering can involve social justice issues as well. Before, I did not think I would end up pursuing any sort of career in engineering because I never enjoyed the technical aspects of what was previously required. Once introduced to our project, I was intrigued to not only address modern sustainable food systems through methods

familial and academic experiences as being their most formative [1]. Indeed, one of theeffects of the updated ABET criteria implemented in 2000 was to call increased attention toengineering ethics in the undergraduate curriculum [2]. McDonald noted that while virtuespecifically cannot be taught, and must be wanted on a personal level, the ability to make ethicaldecisions is distinct from (though related to) virtue and is a skill that can be developed [3]. In2005, Dyrud [4] emphasized the importance of ethics in engineering education, and describedhow it can affect performance both in later courses and in future careers. Harris and co-authors[5] recommended that ethics should be introduced as early as possible and as many times aspossible, both in

Toaddress these challenges, we introduce the use of visual media as a key bridge technology toengage students in grades 6-8 with AI topics, through a recent NSF funded ITEST program,labeled ImageSTEAM. Specifically, we focus on the idea of a computational camera, whichrethinks the sensing interface between the physical world and intelligent machines and enablesstudents to ponder how sensors and perception fundamentally will augment science andtechnology in the future.

However, what is less recognized is thediversity of community colleges, and how community colleges can contribute to broadeningparticipation in engineering efforts. In particular, the role of community colleges in sendingBlack and students from other racial/ethnic groups to four-year engineering schools remainsunderstudied [3]. This is noteworthy considering Lattuca and colleagues’ [4] statement that, “onesolution to the persistent lack of diversity in undergraduate engineering may lie with America’scommunity colleges.

Mann was born in Orange, New Jersey on July 12, 1869, shortlyafter the passage of the Morrill Act of 1862 and the creation of “the land-grant institutions thatgave basic shape to the U.S. approach to engineering education” [Akera, 2017, p. 1].His career followed a typical path for the first 25 years. He earned an A.B. from Columbia in1890 and an A.M. in 1891. In 1896, he received a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Berlin.He married in June of that same year and took a position
