Adopted from the relevant studies in the literature in the context of EMcurricular activities, photovoice reflections combine pictorial and textual data and constitute aportion of the project’s conclusion section submitted by students. The paper then discusses futuresteps on the use of interdisciplinary design projects which provide real-world experientiallearning

Whileseveral scholars have explored how leadership is practiced in the engineering profession, one hasemerged as particularly useful; [12] proposed a model of three leadership orientations in theprofession: 1. Technical Mastery –leadership practiced by teaching others; 2. Collaborative Optimization – leadership practiced by gathering and influencing teams; 3. Organizational Innovation— leadership practiced by creating market solutions.These three orientations reflect the skills, behaviors, and values commonly exhibited by leadersin the engineering profession; they also provide a coherent and

learning is widely accepted as an integral part of engineeringeducation, as these experiences have been shown to improve students’ vocational self-conceptand work self-efficacy, as well as provide higher starting salaries post-graduation [10-11]. In thecontext of this study, enrolment in the program may signal students’ intent to be part of theengineering profession, or at least to obtain some professional experience in the field of theirdegree. However, given that the students are in their first year, we assume that they remain at anearly stage of professional socialization. Therefore, their expectations for the profession and theirown career trajectories may reflect their implicit assumptions about engineering and serve as abaseline for future

Now, in Year 2, the FLC is focused on translatingpedagogical practices from literature and other resources into particular courses. This cohort hasexperienced some adjustments as some faculty leave the FLC and new faculty choose to join theFLC.

Even though efforts have been made to address such challenges forwomen and minorities in CS, more work needs to be done. This is especially the case for blackwomen, who account for less than 3% of the tech workforce. As Computer Scientists, blackwomen face regular affronts to their character and capabilities because of their race and gender.While the combination of racial and gender discrimination have spanned over decades for blackwomen in CS, the tech industry, and related spaces, efforts regarding their

for teaching highly technical concepts. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Considerations for Software-defined Radio Use within a Project-based Learning SubjectAbstractIn this paper we reflect on the use of software-defined radio (SDR) within a project-basedlearning (PBL) subject at the master’s level that incorporates a semester-long wirelesscommunication design project. PBL as a pedagogy is an important tool for addressing disparitiesexisting between the capabilities with which engineering students graduate and those demandedby employers. Ideally, it enables ‘dual impact’ activities in which both technical and professionalskills can be developed concurrently
