and Engineering Educators Association(ITEEA), technology is defined as human innovation in action that involves the productionof knowledge and progressions that will develop systems to solve problems and lengthenhuman competencies. Technology also involves advancements, transformations, ormodification of the natural environment to satisfy professed requirements and desires(http://www.iteaconnect.org). With continuous advancements, transformations, andmodifications, the community stands at the vanguard of constant need for technologicaltraining and assistance. This renders a need for service. To assist in fulfilling this need,technology students should participate in service learning activities to enhance theirawareness of societal needs, and
