reconnect with their children in a positive way upon their release. We have some pre-planned assignments, such as a moon weight calculator which asks for auser’s weight on earth and calculates his or her weight on the moon. We also build flexibilityinto the curriculum, incorporating student ideas whenever possible. For example, after workingon the moon weight calculator program, a student said “I wonder if we could use the same ideato come up with a sentencing calculator?”. The sentencing calculator involved accepting as input(a) an initial sentence duaration, (b) eligibility for “half time” and (c) if you were good and gotyour 10% “kick”. This program was exciting to create because we hadn’t yet discussed “if”statements. We had to work around

related to the conception and institutionalization of a minor in engaged engineering. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Building Community Engaged Programs in Curriculum - A Short Review of Brazilian ApproachesIntroductionEngineering schools have established a variety of ways of how community engagementprograms (CEP) are built into curriculum [1]. But what are the conditions for establishing CEP inengineering schools? And how can we explain the different ways in which CEP programsthrive? From the perspective of the social systems theory, there is an interplay in the dimensionsof constraints (structural coercion), free choices, and contingencies, allowing actors a set ofoptions

It has extensive expertise indeveloping community partnerships and appropriate solutions and has become one of the mostpervasive engineering organizations with student chapters on over 200 campuses. EWB-USAprojects are almost exclusively outside of the curriculum. One of the reasons for this is theemphasis on student leadership and ownership which is traditionally challenging to achieve in acourse.This project is a pilot project where the EWB-USA student chapter is integrated with EPICS togive students academic credit that can be counted toward

Assessing Grassroots Engineering Applications in BrazilIn Brazil, service learning or community service is an integral part of every university’sfundamental duties, along with teaching and researching. The type of learning or service to beprovided, however, depends on the hermeneutics applied, which can either lead to groupempowerment and socio-technical change or to mere paternalism.In the early 2000s, during the two terms of Lula as president of Brazil, many community service/service-learning teams were established and institutionalized, linked to engineering courses andfaculty members. From the conjugation of social technology and solidarity economy movements,some of these teams developed a form of engineering practice that is now called

These workshops served multiplepurposes. First, it offered teachers an introduction to the research component of the project.Second, sample curriculum guides were shared with teachers and school administrators in orderto prompt discussion about how the day-to-day of the project might unfold.

These issues appear to be due, inpart, to the fact that there is no universally-agreed-upon cannon of makerspace best practices andlimited high-quality makerspace standards-aligned curricula.In an effort to support K-12 educators integrating makerspaces and maker-based activities intotheir instruction, we created The SMU Maker Education Project.

Core Curriculum cultivates social justice, civic life, perspective, andcivic engagement. It involves community-based learning with a social justice emphasis. Studentsare required to (i) engage in 16 hours of community-based learning experiences and (ii) performcritical reflection and evaluation of their experiences. A primary goal of the ELSJ requirement is“to foster a disciplined sensibility toward power and privilege, an understanding of the causes ofhuman suffering, and a sense of personal and civic responsibility for cultural change.”The specific learning objectives of an ELSJ class are as follows:• Recognize the benefits of life-long responsible citizenship and civic engagement in personal and professional activities (Civic Life

It charges colleges, schools, and departments of education to provide new learningopportunities and course work to successfully develop these skills in teachers. Similarly,Walters, Garii and Walters (2009) argue for international travel as integral to teacher preparation,encouraging a sense of “otherness” and an appreciation for the role of human difference,addressing misconceptions and stereotypes, and challenging teachers’ understanding of their“professional self” [22].The link to Community Engaged Learning (CEL) as an effective pedagogy for promotingintercultural competence development is well established
