] or local high schools [17].Ambitious institutions have developed assistive technologies [18], constructed low-costgreenhouses [19], and designed affordable (sustainable, aesthetically-pleasing, functional)housing [20]. One program created learning communities: cohorts of students that attended thesame classes, lived in the same dormitories, and participated in the same service-learningactivities [21]. By practicing engineering outside of the classroom -- by solving problems forreal people -- students learn to weight constraints, evaluate feasibility, develop specifications,and prototype solutions which are very practical. Also, there are few other educationalexperiences which foster such a deep sense of purpose and such a high degree of
