institutions as a team processwith socio-technological dimensions [13]. One practical reason is that ABET general engineeringcriteria target the social aspects of engineering education at several levels. In addition to criterion3(c), “an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs,” criterion 3(d)addresses the need to function on multidisciplinary teams, criterion 3(f) social and ethicalresponsibilities, criterion 3(g) communication skills, and criterion (h) addresses global and socialimpact. Constructivist theories of learning, irrespective of the subject matter, recognize thatlearning is a social activity, and design-based courses, including project-based courses, areregarded by most as opportunities to improve students

Engineering Teachers’ Literacy InstructionPeople enter and exit science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pathwaysat different points in their educational trajectories (Cannady, Greenwald, & Harris, 2014;Maltese, Melki, & Wiebke, 2014), but middle school is an especially critical juncture forcapturing and maintaining youths’ interest in STEM fields. From fifth to eighth grade,adolescents’ interest in STEM often declines (Gonzales et al., 2008; Osborne, Simon, &Collins, 2003), and many develop a negative sense of self-efficacy regarding their potentialto succeed in future STEM courses (Chen & Usher, 2013). Though many people exit STEMpathways before they enter high school, this problem is especially pronounced

relative importanceof a given set of values guides one’s actions [see 15]. This axiom is certainly true within anacademic context [16]. Undergraduate students who value the skills and knowledge within thefield of engineering education and the engineering profession as a whole are more likely to enterengineering programs, persist, and succeed [17]. Cech [4], further suggested that engineeringstudents who appreciate the relationship between their education and their future contributions tosociety through technological innovation tend to pursue academic and scientific work which hassome attached social value. By contrast, engineering students who do not make this connectionare more likely to view their engineering education as stale, boring, and task

consensus thatearly-career mechanical engineers need more practical experience and better integration oftechnical and professional skills. There is less clarity on the value of any given technical topic.Even so, handbooks, working engineers, and job advertisements can support development ofuseful technical curriculum content.IntroductionEngineering curriculum evolves gradually over time in response to technological developments,institutional pressures, new pedagogical methods, and shifts in industry demand. Engineeringcurriculum is rarely designed—that is, developed to meet a need by iteratively inventing optionsand selecting the best ones based on evidence.Engineering curriculum has evolved in ways that are inconsistently tied to evidence

For comparison, our cohorts that met on Saturday mornings or during thesummer were clearly visibly more fresh and seemed much less mentally fatigued. No matterwhen we met with students, the duration of the meeting time also seemed an important factor. Asis generally the case with hands-on activities, we found that setup and troubleshooting and otheraspects of dealing with supplies and technology inevitably cut into the overall time allotted foreach activity. In our early cohorts, our meeting time was ostensibly slightly less than an hour,which generally was closer to 40 minutes by

for this is that students may carry the belief that writing is notimportant in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. Anothersimilar reason could be that the required university composition course was focused onelements of writing that may not have been perceived as relevant in STEM fields. Often it isindustry partners that drive the need to improve student writing and address changes in thewriting curriculum for engineering courses. One way to explore and improve the writing needsof engineers is through genre theory and/or genre analysis.Genre Theory and Genre Analysis Genre, according to Miller (1984, 2014), is something that defines the context forwhich a piece of writing is written.
