What are the lived experiences (stories) of Black Doctoral engineering students in matriculating from historically Black college/university (HBCU) to a predominately white institution (PWI) for graduate studies?Background Moving from undergraduate studies to a graduate program is a difficult transition notonly due to the increase in workload and responsibility, but also changes in overall culture withinthe academic setting. Austin (2002) found that when attempting to socialize themselves ingraduate programs “[s]tudents must make sense of the academy and its values, its expectations ofthem as graduate students, [the academy’s

The modelconnects Mejia et al.’s critical consciousness model [17], which engages Freire’s principles ofcritical pedagogy [18], with Hassan’s model of learning-assessment interactions [19]. “Mejia etal.’s model is represented in the center of this model, showing relationships between theory,action, reflection, and concepts of scholarship, praxis, concientização, and liberation that resultfrom their overlap. Hassan’s model of learning-assessment interactions is overlaid, with theoverlap taking the form of reflection as an assessment method and action as a learning method”[13
require to be proficient intechnological literacy? That is a central issue of this discussion.As a matter of policy in the 1980’s governments seem to have taken the view that it is amatter of the economic good that students should study technology in schools [15], and by1992 a World Council of Associations for Technology Education had been founded. Theconference proceedings associated with the founding of this organization, had the title“Technological Literacy, Competence and Innovation in Human Resource Development”[16].Yet, in this extensive report there are only two papers that mention technological literacy[17; 18]. Both authors are American; one, Michael Dyrenfurth is a member of ASEE. Hisdefinition was,“Technological literacy is a concept

The ideas we present here are part of a much larger thought process (Authors, 2021, in progress) in which we are thinking about the ways in which we use quantitative methods in engineering education, and how they might be better realigned or reformed to achieve the same diversity and equity outcomes we feel are more readily achieved by qualitative methods at the time. Our treatment and presentation of demographic data variables here represent a starting point. 1 The “doing” of engineering education is full of many delicate power

-emphasizing social and economicpillars. Furthermore, most instruction on sustainability, as reported in the literature, appears tofocus on teaching the engineering student to be an engineer who practices sustainabledevelopment rather than a consumer who has a role in sustainable practice. In part, thisemphasis on the engineer's role in sustainability is a result of the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET)'s mandate that engineering undergraduates complete theirdegrees having achieved student outcome (c): “...an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability

Li (2016) argues that Chineseengineering ethics faces a dual task: on the one hand, like developed countries, China’s rapidprogress in S&T research has raised critical ethical concerns centered on new technologies (suchas gene editing, artificial intelligence, etc.) that need to be confronted due to the domestic andinternational pressure; On the other hand, China is facing a complex transition from tradition tomodernity which is different from the Western experience. Neither the traditional ethical 3 principle such as Confucianism nor the Western ones is suitable for guiding Chinese engineers tothink
andorganizations in engineering education, with a view to governance structures. Then we offer amore in depth comparison of ABET’s development of Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC 2000) withthe current proposed revisions as they have unfolded. We seek to develop insights on the role ofgovernance in effecting change in engineering education, and specifically on historical changesin ABET’s processes for decision making and theories of change. These insights will point topossible interventions in governance structures to facilitate more inclusive participation in settingfuture directions for engineering education.IntroductionABET, Inc.’s proposed changes to Criteria 3 and 5 of the Engineering Accreditation Criteria,now in their third round of review and comment

Students that did not report parent’seducation level were eliminated from the study.

The OPTIONS camp for boys is hosted as a day camp, not aresidential experience, on the university campus and includes many of the same components asthe programs for girls. Mentors and networking are not as heavily emphasized in the camp formiddle school boys; workshops with hands-on learning and industry tours are coordinated tointroduce the young men to the myriad of opportunities engineering presents.After 25 years of operation, the essential
