. What themes emerge from studies’ findings about the impact of outreach on undergraduates?Method The first steps were to develop inclusion and exclusion criteria for the review. Criteria forincluding the papers were fourfold: (1) describe programmatic outreach efforts from one or morecolleges of engineering to K-12 audiences, (2) include undergraduate engineering students asambassadors or mentors, (3) take place within the continental United States, and (4) includeevidence of impacts on the undergraduate students. In other words, papers were excluded if they(1) described undergraduate involvement in service learning, affinity group, or communityengagement projects, (2) included undergraduates simply as chaperones or creators of

On the other hand, without the correct technique evenrehearsing is not sufficient to deliver powerful presentation. Therefore, a senior elective coursewas tailored to reinforce our future professionals with the necessary steps to yield a compellingtechnical talk via judicious practice. Beyond exposing students to the topic, the ‘Introduction toNanotechnology’ course was designed with an additional skill-building objective: to teachstudents to present well.

Bielefeldt [40] performed a detailed study of a related phenomenon: “sociallymotivated students leaving engineering at disproportionately higher rates,” a particular concernsince societal and caring motivations have gendered and ethnoracial variations. Bydecontextualizing engineering knowledge in the curriculum, engineering education pushes outstudents motivated to use engineering for social good.When students are encouraged to work on local or global community-based projects, their sense(reinforced by their educators) that social and cultural contexts are irrelevant to – or, at

background established, let’s quickly outline how engineering might be described interms of Kagan’s nine dimensions. We have already dealt with the first dimension, that ofprimary interest.The second dimension has to do with sources of evidence. Here we realize that engineers oftenperform projects that run for months or years, and that different questions are asked at differentstages of a project. Generally, the first step of a project requires engineers to understand theintentions of the humans who will be affected by the project. Evidence of the sort normallysought by social scientists and humanists plays important roles in this early stage. The evidencehere may be heavily contextualized as well. Then, as engineers move into the middle phases
