those activities are properly designed.BYOD in the Measurements and Analysis CourseMeasurements and Analysis with Thermal Science Application is a required junior level coursefor mechanical engineers at Northeastern University. The course consists of three lectures andone lab section per week. It covers topics such as statistical data analysis, experimental design,and measurement of engineering quantities such as pressure, temperature, strain, fluid flow, andheat transfer. Seven lab experiments are performed in teams of 3-4 students during the course ofthe term. Each team is also required to do a term project in which they design, execute, andreport on a measurement experiment of their choosing. These projects have ranged frommeasurements of

students build the instruments at the end of the semesterand prepare for a day out with the SeaPerch ROVs. The success of the outreach competition has beenoverwhelming and the experience our undergraduates have received has been invaluable to their success intheir senior capstone projects as well as in their job searches. Although we are just ending our second year of the implementation (this year we taught anadditional 250 students), we had over 450 students from 15 schools use some of the ROV curriculum wedeveloped to learn about STEM, and then design and build ROVs, and later use those ROVs in the secondUtah ROV Competition.

practices and intersections of motivation and learning strategiesDr. Marie C Paretti, Virginia Tech Marie C. Paretti is an Associate Professor of Engineering Education at Virginia Tech, where she co- directs the Virginia Tech Engineering Communications Center (VTECC). Her research focuses on com- munication in engineering design, interdisciplinary communication and collaboration, design education, and gender in engineering. She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring com- munication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work

Technological and Engineering Literacy/Philosophy of Engineering
motivate a student to want to be precise in a variety oftopics. It is not without significance that several engineering educators have in recent yearscalled on their colleagues to take note of what happens in primary (elementary) teaching [17].There has also been widespread recognition among engineering educators in the US that theway in which freshman courses are designed has a powerful influence on the motivation ofstudents to remain in engineering [18]. The initial stages of programs inengineering/technological literacy however short or long need to be oriented toward a stageof romance. At the other end of degree programs there is the hope that capstone projectsprovide the generalisation that is necessary. The project method is of course

from the criticaland sometimes-subtle dimensions of social justice.5 Design cases that involve, for example,“design for the other 90%”6 or designing for people with disabilities redirect attention toquestions of design for social justice. This paper identifies and briefly describes four forms ofdesign: design for technology, HCD for users, HDC for communities, and design for socialjustice. The paper explores how social justice has been enacted—or neglected—in specificdesign contexts within engineering education, and how it can be further integrated in each ofthese forms of design education.This paper is part of a broader project to integrate social justice across three components ofengineering curricula—engineering design, engineering sciences

Her research interests focus on educational studies that can help improve teaching, learning, and educational policy decision makings using both quantitative and qual- itative research methods. Her current research project in National Center for Engineering Pathways to Innovation (Epicenter) focuses on measuring engineering students’ entrepreneurial interests and related individual characteristics.

billioncompanies spend annually on diversity programs to create opportunity and inclusion strategiesfor minority groups5,6, including black engineers. Organizations typically enter into diversityprograms for one of two reasons: legal obligation or fairness4. There are many case studies ofsuccessful organizational diversity initiatives, and multi-organization case studies aswell13,45,48,49,50,51,52,53,54. Organizational diversity efforts may manifest themselves in trainingprograms and employee feedback47; as components of performance evaluations, in the form ofinclusion projects, as social networking, as the responsibility of management, in the form ofmentoring systems, and in affinity groups45
