andcontextual listening.18 Whereas basic listening “refers to hearing or paying attention to the  verbal and nonverbal messages of any speaker” and “is framed as a dyadic process ofspeaking (output) and hearing/receiving information (input),” contextual listening is moreappropriate for community engagement contexts (p. 124).18 Contextual listening is a multidimensional, integrated understanding of the listening process wherein listening facilitates meaning making, enhances human potential, and helps foster community-supported change. In this form of listening, information such as cost, weight, technical specs, desirable functions, and timeline acquires meaning only when the context of the person(s) making the

raciallyunderrepresented groups are underrepresented in institutions of higher education, overall, and inSTEM fields, in particular. For example, “Blacks, Hispanics, and other underrepresentedminorities together constitute 24% of the U.S. population, 13% of college graduates, and 10% ofthe college-degreed in S&E occupations.”7The Status of Women in Undergraduate EngineeringThe most recent national data for bachelor’s degrees awarded to women by discipline ispublished in the 2010 edition of the Profiles of Engineering and Engineering TechnologyColleges by ASEE (Figure 1). This data shows that undergraduate engineering is also impactedby patterns of territorial segregation, with high rates of bachelor’s degrees awarded to women inEnvironmental Engineering (43.1

Over the years TARDEC has hadgreat interest in robotic systems development, and continues to communicate this to LawrenceTech.By 2007, as a result of these many related robotic, automation and autonomous vehicledevelopment activities, it became clear to Lawrence Tech faculty that the research, design anddevelopment of robotic related mechanical, electrical, computer and software systems where inmany ways unique, and could not be easily grouped into the traditional and often separate sub-disciplines of mechanical, electrical, computer and software engineering
