Additionally, we have submitted an NSF proposal that willsupport addressing DEI-related concepts (among other things) throughout a four-course labsequence in the core undergraduate curriculum.

S/he must be willing to learn from the endless praxis’ exercise and even to be taught by the supposedly naive grassroots group s/he is serving: learning from the group’s knowledge, strategies of political action, worldviews and values, etc.Since a grassroots engineer is supposed to be able to develop popular education alongside – or asan integrant part of – the technical support they provide to grassroots groups, they must be aneducator engineer. Defined like that, it can be said that “grassroots engineer” and “educatorengineer” are synonyms.It is

Each one of us learns the same things differently based onour preferred way of learning. We can learn by building mental models; through feelings,emotions, attitudes; and by physical movements. Based on this, the domains of learning are broadlycategorized as cognitive (knowledge), affective (attitudes), and psychomotor (skills) [1]. Eachdomain of learning focuses on one of three ways the brain can be engaged in learning.

The inclusion of engineering design at all grade levels in theNext Generation Science Standards calls for efforts to create learning opportunities for teachersto learn to teach engineering. In our research on the role of engineering in elementary teacherpreparation, we ask, what learning goals do new elementary teachers take up when asked to doengineering design themselves, and what learning goals do they establish when setting upengineering design tasks for students?We conducted an interpretive comparative case study with two purposefully selected cases,chosen to unpack contrasting epistemological framing of engineering.
