For the first time, engineering is represented in K-12 standards. The intent of this shiftis to better prepare young students to pursue pathways in science, engineering, technology, andmathematics. With this change comes the responsibility to design a learning progression ofengineering content that fits within science curricula. Posing a challenge, science curricula aretypically designed from the views of Western modern science. This represents a limitedperspective of science teaching because it adheres to a universalist model and does notincorporate alternative ways of knowing

Numerous reasons canbe supplied, some legitimate, others less so1. Since faculty cooperation is essential to the successof any CQI implementation, the factors contributing to their reluctance to embrace CQI must beovercome in order to succeed. What, then, are some of the reasons given by faculty for their lackof enthusiasm for CQI?A key factor is limited time and available resources. Faculty are called upon to accomplishmultiple tasks involving scholarly activity, teaching and service. At major research universities,the emphasis for tenure and
