[…] The practice of choosing the right language to speak with others outside of engineering will be vital while working in our fields once we graduate and the kid wind project allowed for us engineers to practice that.Finally, students reflected that working on multidisciplinary teams improved their listening skillsand gained open-mindedness. In order to make the team work while creating and revising the lessons, we had to be open minded and listen to each other as we had completely different backgrounds and specialties.Although 91.3% of students reported that they gained or enhanced their communication skills inthis project, only three students responded that it was the most valuable part of the project.

This interaction couldinclude getting to know other people, being open-minded and welcoming others’ views,understanding or relating to other’s feelings and experiences while also being able to separateone’s feelings and experiences from those of others where necessary. However, it is not clearexactly what these encounters could look like in an engineering service-learning context.The Present StudyMethodsThis complete research paper describes a phenomenological investigation of students’experiences of empathic encounters in a service-learning course at a large land grant University.All study participants are engineering

The aim of this work isto present a strategy designed to develop the communication skills of civil engineering students throughtheir participation in a radio podcast program and how this strategy has started social projects.With this in mind, we carried out an empirical study with undergraduate students of the program of civilengineering of the Tecnologico of Monterrey campus Puebla in Mexico.

,10 students left engineering/computing majors or the university altogether, and others did notrespond to invitations to participate in the interviews. In addition, four students transferred toother universities but continued to participate in the interviews. Student pseudonyms are used inthis paper. Students were compensated $100 per interview and $10 for taking the online surveys.There are a variety of limitations to keep in mind when interpreting the results of the study. Thestudents interviewed may or may not represent ‘typical’ engineering students. These studentswere initially attending four doctoral-awarding institutions, thus the full spectrum of institutiontypes were not represented (such as liberal arts focused, bachelor’s or

allpartnerships. As such, this was in mind even before the collaboration was finalized. Whenspeaking with potential collaborators, the expected outcomes were made clear. As previouslynoted, the sophomore level of the engineering students means that many implemented designsare expected to fail. The only way to mitigate this is to find collaborate partners that fullyunderstand and accept that no successful outcome is guaranteed. In this case, working with aneducational institution with the shared goal of educating students permitted this condition.Regular communication kept the collaboration going.A third challenge is another one faced with all projects – cost. In this instance, starting acollaboration with a public school did not allow for funding by the

Engineering Education, 2020 Engagement in Practice: The SMU Maker Education ProjectIntroductionFor nearly two decades, collections of like-minded individuals have united to createmakerspaces in their communities. Community makerspaces serve as places where people cancongregate, access high-tech tools and materials, share design knowledge, and make unique andpersonally-relevant items [1]. This phenomenon, known as the maker movement, has spread toinstitutions such as universities, libraries, and museums [2], [3]. A number of these institutionshave created makerspaces and launched maker programming with the goal of fostering the skillsand mindsets commonly exhibited by the people participating in the maker movement [4].More recently, K-12

At the university level, undergraduate and graduate studentshave the ability to approach a professor and principal investigator and ask for mentorship in their researchlaboratory. Thus, allowing these students to pursue their own graduate and post graduate goals in this professionalsetting; an experience that is dire to all students wishing to become the great scientific minds of our community.In order to rectify this situation and create a more level playing field for community college students, bridgeprograms have been created in
