We focus on the engineering literaciesenacted by a team of focal students who collaborated with a local school for visually impairedchildren to address the problem “How might we increase the accessibility of music to visuallyimpaired people?”. Through the qualitative analysis of students’ interviews and artifacts,recordings, and observational notes from team meetings, we examine the students’ engineeringliteracies learning. Findings show how students used literacies of human-centered engineeringdesign as tools for centering the perspectives of the recipients of the designed products,unseating traditional top-down design approaches.

federal funds for DOD research, development, test, and evaluation, a great deal of research inengineering goes to the design or development of technologies for the military [10]. Thisincludes a great deal of work by engineers in companies that aren’t identified as militarycontractors. For example, several top tech companies, including Amazon, Google, andMicrosoft all have past, current, or proposed projects with the DOD [11]. It is challenging togauge exactly how much engineering research is military-related, but a sense of the figure can beseen by looking at the percent of federal monies that go towards military research. In 2020, theUS National Science Board reported that about 44% of the federal monies directed to scienceand engineering

LOMBOK is a package designed to help reduce repetitive code in Java programs suchas the code for getters and setters [9]. By using LOMBOK we were able to reduce in places theamount of coding necessary since LOMBOK handled the generation of this code at compile timeincluding certain constructors and getters. Additionally, certain logical checks could beeliminated since some of these could be handled with LOMBOK annotations.3.3 Testing As stated above a proper automated unit test suite was not included due to time constraints.Despite this, some non-automated tests were included to

Opportunities for Engineering Students’ Empathy Engagement in Community-based Learning1. IntroductionCommunity-Based Learning (CBL) is an experiential pedagogy that involves a communitypartner in the learning process [1]. Through working with a real partner in engineering, CBLprovides the learning platform to educate students to develop interpersonal skills and becomesocially-engaged engineers who prioritize understanding the needs of the community [2], [3]. InCBL, engineering students learn to develop authentic relationships with community partnerswhen doing engineering projects. This deepened interpersonal relationship between the studentsand the communtiy can positively influence student learning and the quality and sustainability ofthe

This learning framework is based on thefollowing six essentials:Modeling: This involves taking advantage of the learners’ prior knowledge and providing themwith background knowledge related to the learning objectives of the game. The goal of modelingis to enable students to build a conceptual model of the process required to attain the game’slearning objectives.Reflection: This involves the process by which the learners logically organize their thoughts andconnect their preliminary ideas to separate the more important presumptions from less importantones.
