, multicultural ingenuity, and ethicalintegrity). Further, this framework argues that conscientious negotiation of risks and benefits forthe betterment and transformation of societies is underpinned by four reasoning quadrants(experiential reasoning, trade-offs reasoning, first-principles reasoning, and future reasoning),fluently examined through the core practice of multicultural ingenuity and ethical integrity. Thispaper details the theoretical foundations of the socially transformative framework and providesexamples of its pedagogical translations to guide pedagogy practices.IntroductionEngineering, as commonly understood, is the practical application of scientific and mathematicalprinciples [1], the creation of new products [2], and the procedures

. Engineering solutions candisproportionately impact—benefit or harm—certain populations. This differential impact cutsalong class and race lines, raising important ethical questions for engineers as they address thecriteria and constraints of stakeholders. As youth engage with engineering activities andcurricula, it is important that they consider these elements. The emergent field of engineering forsocial justice urges that decision-making related to engineering designs and solutions considertechnical, social, environmental, and ethical contexts (Claris & Riley, 2003; Leydens & Lucena,2018; Lucena, 2013; Nieusma & Riley, 2010; Riley, 2008). Situating engineering in suchcontexts can motivate learners and provide perspectives on the nature

instruction of specific lessons from Units 1 and 2of the e4usa curriculum. For this paper, Lessons 1 and 7 from Unit 1 and Lessons 1, 4, 6, and 7 from Unit2 were examined. These lessons emphasize the importance of engineering communication methods andthe continuous evolution of the definition of engineering and an engineer's role. They also highlightcollaboration within teams, addressing ethical considerations, understanding the broader applications ofengineering, and tackling societal challenges. A full description of the lessons, along with theirsubsequent learning outcomes and thread connections are detailed in Table 1.Table 1Overview of Analyzed Lessons from Units 1 and 2Unit and Name of

review of existing engineering curriculum options, the authors selectedrelevant modules from the Engineering is Elementary (EiE) [1] program. Modules were selectedbased on alignment with CS&E, math, science, and literacy learning objectives and with theschool’s mission to cultivate confident, intellectual, and ethical girls who advance the world.This paper will report on one particular unit on chemical engineering that was used with the 2ndgrade class.In particular, we were interested in assessing the feasibility of adapting the EiE curricularresources to meet CS&E learning objectives, understanding the impact this type of lesson wouldhave on our students, and identifying connections with math, science, and literacy.

, cyber ethics, and digital ethics were also discussed. Each lesson included formative assessments togauge the students’ understanding of the content. Prior to the start of each lesson, students were promptedwith questions pertaining to the previous lesson to help students recall key topics. Throughout eachlesson, students engaged in various knowledge checks to ascertain whether they grasped ideas presentedduring instruction. Those knowledge checks included the following: ● Thought provoking prompts embedded at pivotal points in the lesson ● Online flashcards to aid in the retention of information ● Fun and interactive quizzes and polls to assess comprehension ● Exit tickets to ensure key points

Each engineering design follows an engineering designprocess, including evaluation based on stakeholder analysis. The curriculum is designed to beoffered as a yearlong high school course. It consists of eight units, designed with the idea ofspiraling complexity. Concepts are introduced and are reinforced through later lessons andactivities, allowing increasing autonomy and creativity throughout the course. The first two unitsfocus on a true introduction to engineering, including social, ethical, and environmentalramifications of engineering

. Copies of the patents from the Inventor Videos were also added because students couldrelate to them, having seen the inventor’s story.The quality of the students’ experience working with patents also subtly improved. One exampleis from their final project. Students must watch an episode of the series “How it’s Made” andpresent a 5–10-minute slide show describing how the video addressed five topics from the year’slessons: engineering design and systems, economics, intellectual property, ethics andsustainability, and entrepreneurship. Early on, there was only one standout presentation using IPwhere the student’s slides on electric guitars were almost entirely pictures, including severalshots of early patent drawings leading up to the Les Paul 1955

with her students, inviting community members whowere impacted (many of her students’ relatives) to come present to the class. As a result, the fourth-grade students engaged in the engineering design process to construct and test dam designs withthe community context in mind, grappled with the ethics of engineering, and offered alternativesolutions. This example demonstrates the power of connecting an engineering task to place, localhistory, and community and cultural contexts to increase relevance and importance for students.Other CRED tasks developed by teachers included areas of interest such as: designing a filtrationsystem to improve indoor air quality, developing a severe weather app to be used by teen drivers,creating a model of a
