The National Academy of Sciences has raised theconcern that the current educational model should better align existing engineering models withsuch emerging challenges, broadening the context through an increased number of thematic callsand engaging with a wider range of users. In addition, academic literature on Science,Technology, and Society has called for a move towards a heightened awareness of the contextand factors that influence engineering decision

Thus, ELT's implications for the course's design consisted of guiding learners throughrecursive processes of experiencing, reflecting, thinking, and acting to respond to the learningsituation. That is, "immediate or concrete experiences are the basis for observations andreflections. These reflections are assimilated and distilled into abstract concepts from which newimplications for action can be drawn. These implications can be actively tested and serve asguides in creating new experiences" [5]. Specifics of how ELT guided the course implementationare described in the section below.3.

The student-based evaluation of teaching isknown to have several limitations and hence cannot be the sole basis for instructor evaluation.Peer observation, self-reflection, and assessment of teaching portfolios can be employed asholistic evaluation practices.

Besides the traditionalindividual work, various group activities are performed inside one group and among multiplegroups, or the “households”. Students feel more obligated to better performance and high-qualitylearning outcomes. Another focal point of this study is the assessment of student learning underthe proposed course frame, where tailored tutorials and guidance are vital. Although supportfrom the teaching team is essential in this “neighborhood”, we still want to put students in thecenter as the leader of their study. The ongoing data collection reflects the

computing is the reality of the computing education “culture” in the U.S.being primarily one-note (e.g., white-men)—including faculty, students, and professionals—which instigates perpetual curricular and non-curricular hurdles for members of non-majoritygroups to overcome. To attain their fit within computing, students must navigate the computerscience culture by adopting norms and values that are reflective of the majority-group [22]. Notbeing able to adopt these norms and values impacts students’ fit within computing contexts and,ultimately, their retention.Culture is a compelling explanation for underrepresentation in computer science. This identifiedone-note cultural concern in computing contexts where non-majority computing students
