This paper describes the design and assessment of a service-learning module in arequired junior-level course in probability and statistics for engineering students at a large publicuniversity, which typically enrolls 90-100 students. This course is ideal for service learningbecause students struggle with the material, complaining it is “too theoretical”, and can feelanonymous in a large lecture course. Yet, there are few examples of how to successfullyintegrate service-learning ideas, including reflection activities, into a high-enrollment course thattraditionally focuses heavily on quantitative fundamentals.This paper details the design, student work

In other cases, the aim is to help students approach designin the context of ethics or sustainability, with an eye toward the long-term impacts of their workacross a range of users and circumstances [3]. Immersive classroom experiences like design-build-test assignments and community engagement projects can help facilitate this kind ofknowledge [3-5]. Lab classes are good candidates for doing this kind of work, given the alreadyhands-on nature of a typical materials science lab course. One area where the lab class has yet toexcel, however, is in preparing students to communicate meaningfully about their work acrossdiverse audiences and situations.

In my observation, theclass families approach helped the students manage their academic stress better and provided areliable support system, ultimately contributing to student retention and academic success.

This paperprovides ideas for individuals newer to considering SJ integration into their teaching.Most engineering ethics textbooks fail to address SJ issues in a substantive way. In Unger’s 2017book [14] the terms social justice, racism, and poverty are not found. A passing nod is given tothese issues in a short description of the Panama Canal project, i.e. “there is much to criticizeabout the way that the workers, particularly the black Caribbean laborers, were treated.” (p. x).McGinn’s 2018 The Ethical Engineer [15] does not explicitly use the term social justice but doesdiscuss Rawl’s Theory of Justice: “for the unequal distribution of a benefit or a burden

been pivotal in the development of structural programs to promote research inpredominantly undergraduate institutions [2]. This has led to an increase in undergraduateresearch programs at different universities over the last 35 years.Several models for undergraduate research programs exist, in addition to REUs. These modelsinclude capstone experiences, senior theses, internships and co-ops, course-based undergraduateresearch experiences (CURES), wrap-around experiences, bridge programs, consortium/project-based programs, community-based research programs [1], [3]. However, most of these programsare relatively short-term (i.e., limited to one to two semesters) and thus constrain how deeplystudents can delve into their research.Earlier studies

Most students take someform of engineering design in their capstone experience, as is recommended by ABET [1].Recently, however, more opportunities for this work have been created for underclassmen.Studies have shown that placing team-based engineering design earlier in an engineeringcurriculum can provide students with valuable teamwork skills and connections to real-worldengineering work, as well as increase retention of material learned in class [2]. Teaching designfreshman year increases retention of women and underrepresented minorities[3]. It also providesrelevance and context to young engineers’ careers.While there is an increased interest in teaching engineering design, understanding how to
