the socially responsible engineering modelas a profession [5]. Toba said engineering needed new minds that would combine science andhuman values to solve problems that technology might cause. Toba also stated that engineeringwas viewed negatively as a profession by the young people of the day and to change thisperception, engineering needed to focus on social issues. In one of her presentations at ASEEconference and ECEDHA meeting, Leah H. Jamieson, past president of IEEE, presented dataabout the public perceptions of engineering which showed that engineering is viewed as aprofession that creates economic growth but is not sensitive to social, environmental, andquality of life issues. While the data did not show a negative public perception

Engineering Education, 2018 International Experience of Engineering Technology Students Learning About Renewable EnergyCultural exposure is said to be an enhancement to collegial learning. With this in mind, students inan engineering technology program were given the opportunity to go to Germany to a regionaluniversity, experience education in that setting, and visit sites dedicated to renewable energy. Thestudents were given a two-week experience that taught them through both formal and informalmeans. Ultimately, students experienced curiosity, openness to different cultural norms, and wereable to identify components of other cultural perspectives responding with their own worldviews.The researchers utilized

andimplementation strategies that best fit the students and their needs.Research has shown the multi-model frontloading to be most beneficial for all students, whichprovides opportunities throughout the lesson to accommodate all types of learners, [9]. With thisin mind, frontloading materials were developed, adapted, and refined by the Fundamentals ofEngineering instructional team together with the Disability Services Office and a special educationexpert.At the start of the Fundamentals of Engineering course, the concept of frontloading and the basicsof this study were explained to all enrolled students. In addition, students were made aware of thefrontloading experiences they participated in throughout the semester. General front-loadingtechniques were
