Uncertainty, Project Management, Public Policy, Business Concepts, andSustainability. These new outcomes reiterate a number of identical skills proposed at The Summiton the Future of Civil Engineering and subsequently published by the American Society of CivilEngineers (ASCE) in 2007 2. The outcomes and skills go hand in hand with the vision for thefuture of professional licensure and the associated educational requirements. Led again by theASCE, ongoing public debate resulted in the issuance of Policy Statement 465 on October 5,2014 supporting the concept that an MS or its equivalent is required to practice civil engineeringat the professional level 3. This position has since been publicly supported by the NationalCouncil of Examiners in Engineering

Second, many efforts to embed CT in school coursework have been limited tocomputer science or computer literacy classes, despite CT’s promise for all disciplines [2], [4].To broaden participation in computation – in part by expanding notions of what “counts” ascomputation [3] – more empirical work is needed to refine educational design principles forembedding CT in K-12 settings for all disciplines, including engineering.In this NSF DRL funded project we use “smart” (automated) tabletop greenhouses to engagemiddle-school youth in practices of computation, engineering, and environmental science
