Furthermore, theauthors call for higher levels of faculty engagement with, and support of, diverse learner styles,toward building diversified teams of problem-solvers. The authors push against the traditionalrhetoric of diversity as an end in itself, and advocate for statistically balanced representation inthe student population and attention to diverse learning styles. By examining the ABET EC 2000 Criteria, Smith [5] concludes that the proposed criteria willbe difficult to achieve by certain students unless current engineering curriculums andpedagogical approaches are radically restructured. Smith ([5], p. 2) states, “student learningstyles encompass the spectrum of

He and his peers are helpingbuild such a vision for others.In closing, we offer some thoughts on relative levels of formality and informality that facilitatedsuccessful transformation at this institution. This project began with the intention of studying theformal learning group that lasted for one academic year. However, what became clear during thecourse of the project was that a much less formal and less defined group of staff met (and continuesto meet) on an ongoing basis in the staff cafeteria. We came to understand that this informalexchange of knowledge was at least as important as

This presents the Standard as secondary to the methods used, even though following the standards is essential for an ISO-compliant LCA or carbon footprint report. Since many students will go on to be practitioners by completing LCAs based on the standards, or reviewing LCAs according to the standards, it is important for them to recognize the complexity and rigor these standards have. 4) Understanding the role of professional peer review for standard compliance.

The curriculum was developed by Martinez Ortiz (2015) asan integrated program that embeds NASA science and engineering hands-on activities along witha variety of career awareness readings, videos and online resources as guided by science and mathlearning standards for eighth grade.

Prior researchfocusing on the use of robotics in STEM education has explicitly acknowledged the challenge ofteacher preparation [3]. For example, lack of teacher training has been identified as one of the mainchallenges preventing the adoption of robotics in K-12 STEM education [4].

main reasons for this is to helpyoung minds develop an interest and desire to learn math and science early in their education. Inthis way, they are better positioned to consider and pursue STEM related careers after highschool. To this end, agencies such as the National Science Foundation and others havedeveloped funding programs focused on the development of methodologies and curricula thatcan support the introduction of STEM in the current K-12 educational system. As a result,public educational systems and institutions of higher learning are responding.
