In a Prism article8while she was ASEE President, Sherra E. Kerns noted that “ASEE is a founding member societyof ABET.” Finally, in 2005, after several years of groundwork, from the initiative of ASEEmembers, the support of many other multidisciplinary engineering educators, and thecooperation of both ASEE and ABET leadership, ASEE had become the lead society for theaccreditation of multidisciplinary engineering (and engineering technology) programs.As a result of this new accreditation role and with leadership

, technology, engineering, andmath (STEM) professionals is vital to strengthening the growing demand for engineers. Previousstudies about raising interest in STEM majors focused on (a) the number of undergraduatestudents who decide on a major prior to attending college, (b) common misconceptions regardingthe STEM field, and (c) the effectiveness of pedagogical techniques to increase curiosity.However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, pedagogical techniques to introduce K-12 students tothe STEM fields must be adjusted. This paper investigates the effectiveness of variousmethods to engage and interact with K-12 students interested in STEM during the COVID-19 learning environment and discusses key conclusions from a pilot 90-minute virtual modulefor K-12

in an online class compared to a regular classroom. Because all of theparticipation was through Zoom, students felt uncomfortable asking questions of the professor.Disappointment with the learning environment among engineering students is echoed in researchconducted on postgraduate students in the United Kingdom [14] and 140 undergraduateengineering students in Qatar [15]. Out of the eleven students interviewed in the UK study, eightwere postgraduate students in engineering or technology. Participants in the U.K. study, inagreement with the Gelles et al study [13], felt that the remote classes were merely directtransfers of the existing teaching in the class rather than reconfigurations of the teaching tomaximize the effectiveness.

The first is a group of open-ended questionsabout the role of technology in their mathematics and engineering experience, perceptions ofapplicability of tools across disciplines, and perceptions of preparedness for computing inengineering. The second question type follows the posing of four differential equation problemscenarios of graduated complexity and level of engineering context. Problems were assembledwith the aid of three experienced DE instructors at two of the participant universities.

be a “good” engineer.IntroductionIn 2004, the National Academies of Engineering released the “The Engineer of 2020: Visions ofEngineering in the New Century” report in an effort to highlight the role engineers would hold inour future society [1]. A topic of discussion was the impact of the engineer on societal changes,focusing mainly on the importance of incorporating social contexts into engineering. TheNational Academy of Engineering envisioned an era of engineering education that resulted inengineers that are “leaders, able to balance the gains afforded by new technologies with thevulnerabilities created by their byproducts without compromising the well-being of society andhumanity” [1, p. 19].

The White dominant perspective, or dominant social paradigm (DSP), istypically characterized as a world view in which humans subdue or conquer the natural world inorder to support technological progress [5]. This paradigm is so embedded in engineering that itis considered the norm, hence, we need an understanding of how other worldviews can also beincorporated in engineering. Since worldviews are often influenced by individuals’ homecultures [6], conflict and marginalization can particularly occur when a student’s worldviewdiffers from the anthropocentric worldview that dominates White cultures – includingengineering education.
