experiential program seeks to address workforce developmentpreparedness needs while enabling real-time water quality data to support local aquacultureindustries in Maine. Participants are provided learning opportunities in manufacturing, electronics,programming, computer-aided design and the engineering design process. The drifters developedherein use low-cost Arduino-based microcontrollers and sensors to allow the acquisition oflatitude, longitude, drift rate, drift direction, sub-surface temperature, turbidity and dissolvedoxygen searchable by aquaculture companies in the region. Students participating in the projectwere surveyed to quantitate their engineering skills development and future interest in oceanengineering careers. The program

future research or careers in STEM (e.g., an increase, decrease, or no change)? • What skillsets do you feel you were able to build or refine during your program participation? • What skillsets did you wish you could build or refine that you weren’t able to during this experience? • Are there new or additional supports you have identified to help you as you pursue research or a career in STEM?After collecting the responses, the evaluators summarized participant responses. First, theresearch team carefully reviewed each entry to check for any inaccuracies or mistakes in dataentry. For example, the evaluation team removed duplicate responses from the data set. Then,the evaluators read through the data

applications of autonomy to the maritime environment. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025Engineering for One Planet Sustainable Engineering Leadership Microcredentialthrough General Education Credits with Maritime TargetsBackgroundThis paper details the first stages of a pilot project to generate meaningful student experienceswithin the general education experiences of students at a maritime-focused institution. Theprimary goal of this effort is to create engineers who are trained to see their non-major courses asboth meaningful and impactful for their careers while learning how to mentor others. This will beaccomplished by collaboratively developing a series of courses offered outside of theengineering

Related Work2.1 Real Datasets in STEM EducationEducators in STEM fields have long advocated using real datasets to improve learning. Studies instatistics education argue for the advantage of real-life data sets to increase student interest andperceived relevance of coursework 5 . NASA’s education initiatives similarly emphasize that “theuse of real data provides formal educators the opportunity to teach their students real-worldapplications of STEM subjects” 6 . Combining authentic datasets with lessons aligned to standardscreates learning experiences that students carry forward in their academic careers 6 . However,incorporating real data comes with challenges; educators must address issues of data complexity,and accessibility to provide
