, Vakil and Ayers invite STEM educators to: "Imagine the possibilities that open when being a 'STEM person' (as a programmer, student, teacher, scientist, engineer, technician, or professor) invites a world view and set of cultural, ecological, and societal storylines that are synergistic with the kinds of values, morals, and ethics associated with participation in historical resistance and freedom struggles. One can be a scientist or engineer and a community activist without irony or pause. Or a political engineer, for instance, whose curiosity and pursuit of technical knowledge and understanding is always guided by a motivation to imagine and design new technologies that resists oppression

This would give students the flexibility to be present on location at the sponsor’s facility for critical project milestones but have the flexibility to meet virtually with their sponsors more frequently throughout the duration of the project.b. Student's Perspective: At the end of the senior design project, all students are asked to write a reflection statement that addresses the following questions: 1. Actual timeline compared to the proposed timeline, 2. Actual costs compared to proposed costs, 3. Ethical considerations for the project, 4. Effectiveness

studentoutcomes that we felt were most applicable and most reasonable for supervisors to assess. Itshould be noted that the ABET student outcomes recognize the importance of technical skills and“soft” or professional skills and require both. This is in line with what employers are saying theywant from future employees as well – technical skills, of course, but also professional skills [14,23]. Examples of desired professional skills include leadership, an ability to effectively work ina team, communication skills (both verbal and written), strong work ethic, flexibility/adaptability, and ability to work with others [24, 25].

toencourage engineering faculty is by introducing leadership pedagogies, practices, andepistemologies. Some popular frameworks that have been used in engineering leadershipresearch and practice are transformational leadership, servant leadership, and ethical leadership[9]. While incorporating leadership in the engineering education ecosystem is challenging, thefinal challenge that Klassen et al. [7] describe is disrupting marginalization. As a predominatelyWhite and male-dominated field, Klassen et al. [7] state, “deeper cultural and structural changesare required for leadership and engineering to reflect the experiences of all students, not justthose who fit the image of historically dominant groups.” Much of the work in both engineeringand

Is it important to have a large data setif we are not going to analyze all of the data? Would it be better for us to have smaller data setsthat we analyze more critically and deeply? Would it be better to have a smaller number ofparticipants and collect more in-depth data from those participants? Or does having a larger dataset help us have more credibility when sharing our studies with traditional engineering faculty?Is there an ethical concern around collecting data that is not included in later analysis?Generalizable/Contextual Tensions:Generalizability was discussed

I am confident in this path because of powerful educationalexperiences in my own life that have reoriented me - for example, an experience during a“work week” at Highlander that challenged me to viscerally shift my relationship withwork. While it is difficult for me to articulate, the experience of breaks from work incommunity was so powerful that it began to break down the engineering-capitalist-protestant work ethic so deeply ingrained in me

We see opportunities to identify howconceptions of race, gender, and ability have shaped scientific thought and engineering practicethroughout history. Additionally, there remains a need to critically evaluate claims about thescience of human difference and analyze the complex relationships among engineering,technology, and ethical responsibility in current social contexts in which engineering ispracticed.

More recently in 2019, the American Society of Civil Engineers(ASCE) brought together over 200 engineering educators and professionals to discuss the capabilitiesneeded by today’s civil engineers to solve society’s complex problems. One of the four major objectivesidentified as pathways to preparing engineers to meet society’s needs was to elevate professional skills toa truly equal footing with technical skills [5]. Specific skills included communication, teamwork andleadership, lifelong learning, professional attitudes, and ethical responsibilities. Thus, while most mayagree that technical prowess is the most essential characteristic of an engineer, all

Abstract Laboratory safety poses inherent legal and ethical responsibilities that all engineeringeducation programs in the United States (U.S.) must address. However, developing safer habitsin the creation and testing of engineering design solutions starts long before students enter post-secondary engineering education programs. P-12 engineering education programs are a criticalpartner to develop greater safety awareness and safer habits among prospective engineers andour future workforce. This research utilized data from a national safety study involving 718 P-12engineering educators from 42 U.S. states, specifically focusing on the subsample of 117teachers from middle Atlantic (mid-Atlantic) states.
