experiences outside of classrooms have an increasedinterest in STEM and a desire to pursue STEM careers [2]. Middle school years are prime years of career awareness, especially when students seeadults in STEM careers; it resonates with them and piques their interest [3,4]. Moreover, whenstudents engage in authentic hands-on activities and can see applications of STEM in their lives,it further motivates them to pursue STEM careers [3]. Therefore, keeping the research in mind,Introduction to Research and Innovative Design in Engineering (iRIDE) was initiated in thespring of 2019 for middle school students as an after-school extracurricular club followed by asummer academy to stimulate their interest in engineering.

Space Club also involved team activities, mentoring, and goal setting to builda foundation of engineering habits of mind that improve student confidence, increase persistence,and improve academic performance. The program culminated in a district-wide competitionwhere students worked in teams to design a colony on Mars that featured engineering design,science research, architecture, and mental health solutions. Teams presented to local STEMprofessionals and were joined by families at an award ceremony. The program ended with a

Yet, not wanting to embody the problematic stereotype of the engineer as a top-downplanner and solver of people’s problems, she set on the quest to understand how to“decolonize my mind as Shrestha proposes in her paper [30]. That is the ability to humblemyself and come from a mindset of collaboration rather than omnipotence like many of ourpredecessors.” Also, drawing on STS histories of engineers doing community development inthe 1960s [31], she “liked the idea of Volunteers in Technical Assistance (VITA) having no ColdWar political agenda when they distributed tools and applications of engineering techniques toaid communities who reached out to them. This made their work more accessible to anyonewho needed it although they fed

engineering students were the oneswho had this competence more developed since they presented many works during thecourse, and this allowed them to create this competence more. Third, leadership developmentis when students need to lead their final project. That is, students are required to keep theobjective in mind and manage the team and resources. To do so, they need to develop projectmanagement and leadership skills. All the competences cited are essential for industrialengineering students and leaders. Therefore, the way that was approached in this universitycould be replicated in industrial engineering courses. Finally, all these actions are to buildconfidence in engineering students so that they can solve engineering problems in theexternal

I tend not to think about how my identity is affecting my interpretation of datawithout prompting. As a non-engineer, educator, and social scientist, my biases are that empathyand critical thinking are integral to the development of deep-thinking. Career-focused beginningstudents are unlikely to take a critical look at the field of they have just entered, and need to seeexamples of this.

Understanding “unmarked users” in medical technology designAdoption of new medical technologies is happening at breakneck speed, from decision-makingalgorithms to electronic health records to personalized medicine [2]. Much of this developmentoccurs under a universalist framework that considers a device made for one patient will likelywork for all patients. This is what Constanza-Chock refers to as designing for the “unmarked”user, whose gender, race, class, and age are not specified [3]. Yet in the minds of the engineer,this user likely has a certain set of assumed normal characteristics: English language proficient,with access to broadband internet, literate, with a normally

For case study, the surveyed literature was used to assessknowledge and understanding, perception, and social communication [12, 23].Implication of the study The scoping review shows that most online lab studies focus on the use of online labs tofacilitate knowledge and understanding. This limits our understanding of how engineering labscan be used to facilitate many of the learning outcomes outlined in Brinson’s framework oflearning outcomes. Future studies may explore how online labs can be used to promote otherlearning outcomes that the KIPPAS suggests.
