In addition to that, all of the groupswere asked to compare their results with their home countries in terms of any major differ-ences or even similarities. The results were presented and discussed in class during one of theearly live sessions. Hereby the students simultaneously gained knowledge about their futuredestination and challenged their personal understanding about their own cultural background.Furthermore, they were introduced into the home countries of their future classmates.

contradicts a careful study of four institutions constrained in terms of educationalinnovation by accreditation, not because the process itself was cumbersome, but because of thenorms and constraints imposed by ABET evaluators and the broader engineering culture. 33Because ABET relies strongly on “old-boy networks” – exclusive relationships of mutualsupport and influence – to select leadership from Program Evaluators on up, the decision-makingstructure has a pronounced problem of underrepresentation (even by engineering standards) ofwomen, people of color, and younger engineers. Have any ABET evaluators been educatedunder EC 2000? How many have a true appreciation for professional skills? How many havespent careers focused narrowly in technical

For example, as outlined inFurco and Billig’s Service-Learning: The Essence of Pedagogy11, some learning non-academicoutcomes that are intrinsic to the service-learning philosophy fall within these domains:vocational (career); personal; civic and cultural; ethical; and, social. For a more thoroughelaboration of these domains, the reader is directed toward the original source. Other key components driving the decisions behind the project selection in a service-learning context are the resources available and student capacities to meaningful engage in theproposed projects. Resources refer to the institutional, community, financial, and materialresources and support available to a service-learning

She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring communication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work includes studies on the teaching and learning of communication, effective teaching practices in design education, the effects of differing design pedagogies on retention and motivation, the dynamics of cross-disciplinary collaboration in both academic and industry design

Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (Fundamental)IntroductionIn spite of efforts to diversify the engineering workforce, the profession remains largelydominated by White, male engineers [1]. Better approaches are needed to attract and retainunderrepresented groups to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers,such as engineering.One literacy-based approach that has been shown to provide effective instruction for K-12students generally, and students from underrepresented groups specifically, is DisciplinaryLiteracy Instruction (DLI). DLI utilizes knowledge of the ways advanced practitioners read,interpret, and generate discipline-specific content in their professional environment to apprenticestudents

(Principals at Adamsville andKellerton preferred that our research not be conducted in the other kindergarten classrooms inwhich there were early-career teachers.) The study occurred during the second half of the schoolyear, when participants ranged in age from 5.5 to 7 years. A total of 53 kindergartnersparticipated in the study with the following rates of participation: (1) Adamsville (36%participation; 13 participants); (2) Blakely (100%; 9); and (3) Kellerton (70%; 31

The connection between thethree fields of engineering; and mathematics and science is illustrated based on the commonlyknown and ABET definitions of mathematics and science with those of engineering. Anevidence of this connectivity lies in STEM which is a recent field that has been highly visible inthe last twenty years. It stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Studentshave been noticeably swayed away from these crossing disciplines for various reasons. STEMwas partially created to attract students back to these careers again.Discussions are
