into their careers andlives after graduation. Such approaches are often referred to as high impact pedagogies [1].The American Association of Colleges and Universities classifies service-learning as a “highimpact pedagogy” [2]. While the roots of service-learning, also called community engagedlearning, date back to the 1860’s with the Morrill Act and the 1920’s with the work of JohnDewey, curricular integration took root in the U.S. in the 1970’s. In the 1990’s there was asignificant increase in the adoption of the pedagogy within many disciplines in higher education[3, 4]. Research has shown that service-learning, can have benefits on student persistence [4-12],learning of core disciplinary knowledge and the broader skills needed in today’s
project. The instructors expect the students to achieve their learningoutcomes in an educational interdisciplinary setting and we will work together to ensure that thisexperience is enriching for the FSF clients.AcknowledgementsThis project is supported by the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE)’s Electricaland Computer Engineering Technology Department Heads Association (ECETDHA) Minigrant,WCU Intentional Learning Grant, WCU Faculty Institute of Community Engagement Grant, andthe WCU Academic Project Grant.

semester of 2017, a local inventor (2nd author of this paper) needed some CADmodeling support. We adapted our curriculum and made it a priority to help meet this need. Wewere rewarded for it - students loved these service projects. The S-L project served as a link fromengineering theory to everyday objects people can touch and see. Along the process they learnedwhat they needed to learn - the CAD tools. It was a win-win situation. In the following sections,we will document these activities and share some ABET outcome assessment results.The Wrap Rack ProjectOur university’s motto is "To Seek to Learn is to Seek to Serve."1 Service-Learning (S-L) haslong been recognized as an effective way of achieving multiple student learning outcomes
workshop and future plans with the CodeIT Day model.Project Design and ExecutionThe planning of CodeIT Day 2018 followed a similar structure as previous CodeIT Days. Theplanning committee got together to set a date, create the student applications and create arecruitment plan for students and volunteers. During this process, a team member was alsoworking on the curriculum for students.RecruitmentAlthough students of all backgrounds are welcomed to apply and are accepted to the workshop,due to the lack of underrepresented minorities in the STEM fields, it has always been a mission ofCodeIT Day to intentionally recruit students of color and female students of the targeted gradelevel(s) each year. CodeIT Day 2018 was geared specifically for fifth and

Primarily, the ultimate goal of future research is to use theseframeworks and reconceptualization of engineering to work together with communities and formlong-term relationships to validate and recognize indigenous knowledge in engineering spaces.AcknowledgementsThis work would not have been possible without the financial contributions of the University ofSan Diego International Center and the Mbyá-Guaraní community.
