Berry is a Professor in the School of Engineering Technology at Purdue University. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024Using “Micro” Approaches to Prepare Engineering Technology and Business Students for the Informed WorkplaceAbstractThe information landscape of today’s workplace is very different from the one our studentsexperience in academia. As such, it is critical for students graduating and entering thetransdisciplinary, information-rich workplace to have solid information literacy skills andunderstand how to seek out and use information from traditional and non-traditional sources.With the support of an internal grant, librarians and an engineering technology professor at alarge

also highlighted the widespread optimism for the future of OER [6].OER in Engineering:Given the decentralized nature of creating and hosting OER, it is challenging to quantify theexact number produced. One of the most commonly used reference libraries, The Open TextbookLibrary [7], lists a total of 1,361 resources as of Jan 1, 2024. As seen in Figure 1, most OERshave been written for the Humanities, followed by the Natural and Social Sciences. WhileComputer Science has 116 developed OER, other Engineering & Technology branches have onlydeveloped 70 OER. Furthermore, 48 of the OER in Engineering & Technology have been writtenfor either general Engineering & Technology or Electrical Engineering. This leaves only 22 OERin the Open

Some, though certainly not all, of the most commonformats of GL used by engineering scholars and practitioners include standards, patents,technical reports, conference proceedings, case studies, preprints, datasets, and dissertations andtheses.Historically, because these resources are not produced by commercial publishers withstandardized distribution networks and because their formats are so diverse and numerous, GLhas been difficult to identify, locate, and access.

and implementation of technical standards. These challenges are expressed intechnical committee meetings, in office rooms after hiring a new engineering intern, and byeducators across engineering disciplines seeking ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology, Inc.). We hypothesize that the technical standards challenges faced by thecollective engineering profession are similar. A survey about the importance of and challengespresented by technical standards was completed by participants (N = 201) from multipledisciples, educational levels, and backgrounds across the United States. This paper analyzes thewritten responses provided in response to the survey (N = 149). Participant responses highlightseven technical standards

, technology,engineering, mathematics, and medical science (STEM) courses. We surveyed college anduniversity STEM instructors to determine if they were utilizing Open Education Resources(OER) and Open Access (OA) books, articles, or other resources. We also asked whetherinstructors are selecting materials based on accessibility, diversity of format types, representationof a variety of identities within STEM professions, or other criteria. We asked what informationresources are consulted when instructors select instructional materials. Using qualitative codinganalysis of free text responses, we identified several themes in the data that will help librariansand publishers to find, curate, and advertise more useful materials for STEM course

These efforts resulted in more engineering students usingaccessibility services in the Library. With increased awareness and utilization of thesespecialized Library services, the librarian successfully advocated for the purchase of additionalborrowable assistive technologies at other libraries across campus. Finally, the librariancollaborated internally with the Library’s Communications team and accessibility specialist staffto develop and share social media content.

activity thatcan be done in any classroom or learning environment. The design thinking process incorporatesmaking concepts, where students engage in hands-on learning experiences, often fabricating aphysical product using basic crafting materials or utilizing making technologies. Makerspacesare a natural fit for design thinking concepts to be facilitated, as they provide space for creativepursuits with fabrication equipment, including 3D printers, laser engravers, sewing machines andmore [14].Makerspace environments foster creativity and innovation and provide alternate ways to learnand engage with course content, especially when linked to the engineering disciplines [14].Makerspaces are a valuable tool for an academic institution, especially
