generalizability of the results to an international context.Currently, additional faculty are being surveyed as to which of these suggested interventions topromote engineering technology adoption would be most appealing and most likely to be utilizedby them. The results of these surveys will inform focus groups that will flesh out more detailsand structures of chosen interventions.

industry advisors helpedthe participating teachers develop modules reflecting current cutting-edge research in dataanalytics as well as gain a better understanding of the development needs for next-generationdata analytics workforce. In this paper, we summarize key activities of the AR-DATA program,including findings from the application process, the six-week summer program, and academicyear follow-up. We analyze the teachers’ expectation and feedback of the program as well as thelearning modules developed and piloted in the classroom. Finally, we present challenges andopportunities for sustainability of the AR-DATA program.IntroductionThe Arkansas Data Analytics Teacher Alliance (AR-DATA) program was established in 2020,funded by the National
that position the self within networks of social relationships (Burke& Stets, 2010). This positioning includes seeing oneself as similar to some and different from others;(Walton & Jones, 2018). Individuals hold multiple identities all of which are dynamic, yet provideindividuals a sense of consistency and stability by connecting the past with one’s (perceived) futuretrajectory through providing an answer to the question, who am I? Importantly, the self-meanings thatconstitute one’s identity are built up from social interactions and the reflected appraisals of others. Itfollows then that academic departments with stronger bonding capital (i.e., resources and information),likely provide students with more interactive opportunities to

engineering service-learningprograms [28, 29] are more likely to pursue a graduate degree or enter the engineeringworkforce, maintain a greater belonging to the engineering field, and experience increasedgrowth in professional and professional skills.However, despite these positive impacts, undergraduate engineering students are less likely totake advantage of such experiences than their non-engineering counterparts and spendsignificantly more time on academic coursework [30]. While this may reflect a traditionaltendency to focus on technical competencies in engineering education, current thinking amongengineering professionals, as evidenced in engineering education standards, aligns with moregeneral trends in undergraduate education that emphasize

In this lesson, students are introduced to the profession of engineering through the people who are engineers. Stories of Navajo engineers and the impact they make are shared, and students are asked to reflect on their own motivations as they explore potential career pathways. 4.

In this lesson, students learn about and explain differences between the scientific method and the engineering design process, and then conduct hypothetical investigations using the different

onmany different levels. Active learning and other evidence-based learning strategies promote adeeper understanding of complex material because students are forced to think about the materialand apply fresh concepts to new situations [1]-[4]. Hands-on learning is a particular form ofactive learning where students engage in a topic in several different ways including sight, sound,and tactile sensory input [5]-[8]. While engaging multiple senses, students can interact with otherstudents and reflect on how their understanding of some topic can be used to explain a particularphenomenon. When the hands-on experiences are well-designed, students can go beyond thelecture material and observe how theory is manifested in the real world. Unfortunately

and thermocouples. [4] Step four involved the crux of the experiment. Some instructions for how they wereto use the data acquisition software were provided along with instructions for how to run theexperiment. The students were then asked to evaluate the results of their experiment by solvingfor certain variables using the data they collected and then answering the challenge questionposed to them at the start. Many of their results included graphs that they could both see in realtime and examine after the data was taken to assist them in understanding what was physicallyhappening. [5] Step five was for reflection and included questions asking about the concepts thatwere stressed during the workshop and was intended to gauge what
