In addition, she is interested in technology and how specific affordances can change the ways we collaborate, learn, read, and write.

This paper describesexperiences in a software capstone course which teaches students the activities associatedwith two popular industry processes: XP and RUP. In particular, the course uses studentprojects to create applications used within the university. The unique aspect of the coursethat differentiates it from other software engineering capstone experiences is theemphasis on agile processes (primarily XP) and the use of software development tools(e.g. configuration management, automated testing, modeling) commonly used inindustry.Four university projects have been created to date.

computational models of invisible processes in physical systems (e.g., [8]). As argued by Gupta and colleagues [9], a more complete engineering education alsodemands a deeper focus on the “macroethics” of engineering, including the social, ethical, andpolitical impacts of engineers’ scientific and technological pursuits. However, children and manyadults rarely conceptualize their interactions with machines in ways that are consistent with thecomplex and dynamic nature of machine learning systems [4], [5]. While mechanistic reasoningis often used to account for thinking about the behavior within systems, we also apply amechanistic lens to think about ethical dimensions of the sociopolitical contexts in whichmachine learning systems operate.

Her current research is on how contaminant perception of artisanal and small-scale mining at different spatial scales influences environmental response and how engineers can work with that information to co-develop socio-technical responses to environmental pollution.Nathaniel Leander Steadman Nathaniel Steadman is an M.S. student at the University of Texas at Arlington studying

majors, including Electrical and Computer Engineering students. Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.
