anchor which scopes and informs our beliefs research. Building onwork out of science and technology studies and the sociology of engineering, Robbins [16]describes and contrasts characteristics of traditional vs. reflexive (sociotechnical) engineers(Table 1), ultimately arguing that reflexive engineers are better equipped to addresssociotechnical challenges because they integrate broader social concerns into their work andactively value the community and environment they work with integrated with theirtechnological contributions. As our ultimate research goal is to enable engineering service-learning students to practice reflexivity about the value of diverse perspectives, Robbins’ [6]description of reflexive engineers has informed our methods

Neurodivergent characteristics, such asattention to detail, creativity, and pattern recognition, align well with careers in STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), yet retention of neurodivergent students withinengineering programs is lower than neurotypical students [1]. Neurodivergent students whograduate or attempt to enter the workforce in a STEM discipline face bias and decreased successrates in job attainment after graduation [2].

when engineers appreciate and strive forfairness [4]. Understanding the educational context and the importance of integrating equityissues is crucial to help engineers develop an equity ethic. However, the rigid and technology-focused nature of engineering education, rooted in meritocracy and a lack of political awareness,often prevents engineering students from exploring the social aspects of their field. To promotesocially just engineering practices, we must change how engineering students are taught andequipped to address issues of inequality in the workplace.

While hands-on learning tools likeLEGO Mindstorms are often used in engineering education, our approach uniquely emphasizesthe unpredictability and complexity inherent in real-world systems engineering. Rather thanfocusing solely on technology or project completion, we incorporate controlled disruptionsduring exercises, such as modifying project requirements, changing team compositions, orremoving key components from the kits. These disruptions simulate dynamic environments,requiring students to adapt, manage resource limitations
