then on the field trips, you got to see those technologies in action. I’m a first-generation student so, I didn’t know a lot of professionals while growing up. And I didn’t know a lot about those occupations so, it was really cool to see that and to have more things to talk to my students about. So, they won’t be like me and not know those jobs exist.

Finally, this technology is relatively new to the civil engineeringdiscipline, but they are likely to encounter it in their future careers.

" artifacts crafted from unconventional resources, can be integrated into asset-based pedagogies like Connected Learning to reimagine engineering education. Participants include Mexican American middle and high school-aged youth in Southern California, USA, alongside Mexican American adult mentors and researchers. Study participants collaboratively designed a prototype workshop targeting future youth who may not consider engineering as a career, utilizing speculative fiction (e.g., Latinofuturism) to ignite interest while tapping into existing creativity, collaboration, and resourcefulness inherent in everyday engineering problem-solving. This holistic approach aims to render engineering more relevant

One student described a potentially novel phase between concept generationand evaluation as “thinning,” thus representing the team’s convergence towards a final designidea or set of ideas. Another student suggested adding a phase beyond evaluation that had aprototyping flavor. In short, students were drawing attention to aspects of their designexperiences where empathy was salient that the model did not explicate.DiscussionEmpathic design is an emergent design methodology, which traces its inception back to at leastthe work of Leonard and Rayport [5].

Overall, it’s a good system though.”Discussion on Benefits and Challenges of Specifications GradingThe specifications grading scheme enhances the rigor of the course, the metacognition of thestudents, and ultimately the students’ demonstration of the learning objectives. It reduces thenumber and severity of high-stakes assignments and encourages students who initially performpoorly to be able to understand their mistakes and correct them in a retake. Specifications gradingalso, arguably, better exposes engineering students to how their work will be evaluated in theirfuture careers, as either “good enough” or “needs revision.”The quantitative survey results show that students generally felt that the specifications
