When the results were disaggregated by state, 2015 and 2017 math and science scores forNYS 4th graders decreased from 2009; NYS math and science scores for 8th graders seemedunchanged5.Given these results, there is potential for improvement. The Engineering Ambassadors workedwith students in Grades 6 -12 with the hope that middle and high school students could develop apositive attitude toward math and science, anchors of the STEM program. The Ambassadorsadded the engineering component to math and science learning through hands-on activities andincorporated technological enhancements - for full STEM implementation.The Ambassador program was designed around characteristics of middle

Inone state, this is due in part to the 2008 Global Warming Solutions Act (GWSA), whichmandates that greenhouse gases be reduced in the state to 25% below 1990 levels by 2020, and80% by 2050 [1]. To address the growing need for investment in job creation, a privateuniversity, an urban high school, and an industry partner collaborated to create a program forhigh schoolers to instill excitement in this growing field. Specifically, this program addressesthe increasing need for a diverse and highly skilled STEM (Science, Technology, Engineeringand Math) workforce with a focus on Clean Energy. The program was designed to: ● Offer an introductory engineering design course which used project-based learning

A similar concept was also suggested in Holsapple etal.

This pedagogical technique could also addressmacroethical issues by helping facilitate integration of ethics and science, technology, and society aspresented by Herkert [15] and Finelli et al.

dualism, “the distinction between being technology-focussed, on the onehand, and people-focussed, on the other” which is “manifest in the distinction often drawnbetween narrowly specialist and more holistically heterogeneous types of work and knowledge inengineering” (Faulkner 2000, p. 761-2). We note that the emphasis on meritocracy and the socio-technical dualism is common across Riley’s, Cech’s, and Slaton’s characterization ofengineering culture.These aspects of engineering culture strongly influence the ways in which resources and rewardsare distributed within teams, organizations, and institutions, and how status is built withinengineering communities. Because of this, we link these cultural norms to the notion of ideologyas described in
