research grant (e.g., NSF),s/he must comply with already structured research as stated in the grant proposal which rarelyincludes RT as defined and outlined above (NSF’s Broader Impact criterion is not RT). In spiteof these institutional, structural, and procedural constraints, the student co-authors in this paperdeveloped a commitment to RT mainly due to the spaces that their HES graduate programopened to do so and the guidance of faculty committed to RT. Hence, as expected, their RTefforts had to be implemented somewhat haphazardly, often circumventing established academicpractices but without placing themselves in trouble. Other students, while deeply committed toRT, found themselves prioritizing traditional academic writing, valued by academic
’ STEM contexts. This study’s use of CBL reflects [3]’s philosophy as the learningframework, which calls for authentic collaborations with the communities in which the worktakes place [25]. Such collaborations require the building of meaningful connections withcommunity partners and their lived experience as knowledge of the problem’s context [26].Community-based problem-solving is about elevating the knowledge of the people mostimpacted by the problem being examined. The teachers in this study leveraged acommunity-based learning context that looked towards neighborhood organizations facingenvironmental hazards, whose credentials did not come from academic spaces.

to the students on the topic of service learning.Other course activities included a class presentation by Terri Crawford, JD, a Service Learning Fellow,and instructor in Black Studies at UNO, who introduced the topic and spoke with the students about thehistory of redlining in general, as well as the specific history of redlining in Omaha. One of thesignificant impacts of redlining in Omaha was the communities and neighborhoods that were displacedduring the construction of US Highway 75. The U. S. Department of Transportation estimates more than475,000 households and more than a million people were displaced nationwide because of the federalroadway construction and the City of Omaha was no exception. In 1954 that the State of Nebraska andthe
. Toooften, educational institutions uphold hegemonic norms and the status quo. Howard et al.describe that “education has reinforced structures of disadvantage rather than challenging suchstructures,” adding that “education appears to maintain rather than change broad social andeconomic structures” [1, p. 2]. Carpini and Keeter describe service learning as “a collaborativeeffort to address a community problem” [2, p. 635]. Building off of Gervasoni et al.’s [1] andCarpini and Keeter’s [2] social justice lens—though they use the language of service learning—we have chosen the term community engagement rather than service learning to emphasize themutual benefit of the community and the students and to avoid the more deficit-basedperspective that
fusion (not yet viable but showing promise for widespread use in the future) continue to develop, communities will have many options and choices. Practicing engineers are looking for strategies to engage community members in equitable and just ways. The model for community engagement that we are developing in this course has the potential for widespread adoption in professional contexts; this is a way to reshape energy technologies and engineering design more broadly. eferencesR[1] T.
