During the 2025-2026 school year, the objective would be to bring this assignmentsection into 4-6 sections of ENGR 100, with the hope that we might recruit 1-2 colleagues to testthe approach in their own sections. Assignments could be modified to better fit the project ordiscipline-specific content of each section, with keeping the core task of asking students toresearch and develop case studies of their own. Following the Winter 2026 section, we wouldconduct student surveys, instructor reflections, and perhaps several small focus groups wherestudents could share their experience with

Byaffirming a comprehensive framework of cognitive, functional, social, and meta-competencies,this study bridges theoretical understanding with practical demands. Moving forward, thevalidated model offers a foundation for designing responsive curricula and training programs thatprepare engineers for complex socio-technical environments. Future research should furthervalidate the model through importance ranking and structural analysis to strengthen its utility incurriculum development, workforce planning, and policy formulation. Continued collaborationamong innovation actors remains essential to align competencies with the needs of Industry 5.0

Locally running LLMs, like Meta’sLlama, can keep this data private. At the time of this project’s planning, they tended to be lessaccurate and user-friendly, requiring additional expertise or training for the instructors or TAswho use them. Rather than rely on LLMs to generate the weekly TA summaries in real time, weused ChatGPT only for analysis, to derive preliminary themes in student responses. We plan toconduct manual coding and

(Equity Action Plan, 2022). Additionally, cultural misalignment between standardized engineering curricula and Indigenousvalues presents a significant barrier for Native students. Schools often lack Indigenous educators and rolemodels, and educators may not receive adequate training in culturally responsive pedagogy, limiting theirability to design inclusive curricula (Whitcomb et al., 2021; Ong et al., 2020). This misalignmentreinforces preconceptions of engineering as disconnected from community-centric values, furtherdeterring Indigenous students from pursuing an engineering career.Local vs national perspectives on inclusion in engineering education.
