Although the material from the Studying Engineering6 book wasdiscussed throughout the semester, there were many times the students were disconnected fromthe concepts and felt it did not apply to them. To try and remedy this issue, the class structurewill allow the students to take more control of the activities while also learning about positionsthey may hold in a student club. An example is that a group of students would be on a socialcommittee. This group would then be in charge of any social activities involving the ENGR 204class, such as

Each groupof students defined the need/problem, designed a solution, pitched their solution to potentialinvestors, purchased materials from a supply store, tested their prototype, and demonstrated theirprototype. At the end of the activity, it was revealed that the supply store had charged each groupdifferent prices for materials to simulate different allocation of resources. The students engagedin discussion of the technical aspects of their designs as well as the financial, ethical, and societalconsiderations that must be considered when designing solutions in global health.Central Dogma of BiologyThis module introduced basic principles of genetics and the mechanisms of DNA replication

I argue that asstudents, teachers, and researchers, we equate the minds of those who occupyeconomic and social margins with the possession of marginal intellect whenwe set out to help or aid them without recognizing the validity of andvalorizing their ways of knowing. Learning how members of socially andeconomically marginalized communities apply their minds, mouths, handsand feet to solve locally occurring problems may help us interrogate ourscholarly, pedagogical, and ethical objectives in a more reflexive manner.  Drawing on ethnographic research and writing

Often, the students have taken courses that provide an exposure to the discipline,providing more background than the mentors expected. Even in cases where math and sciencebackground was lacking, the mentors were able to review their transcripts and gain knowledge ofwork ethics, problem-solving abilities, and intellectual curiosity from the courses taken, GPA’s,and grades. Some mentors, although not impressed particularly with the transcripts, wanted toprovide the students an opportunity they may not otherwise be given to grow and
