It is primarily a call to consider how students engage in their college experience,and to search for proper tools that can be deployed to stimulate learning.In moving forward, there are numerous tools available to select from, including the modelspredicated on cooperation; i.e., working together to accomplish shared goals. Withincooperative activities, individuals seek outcomes that are beneficial to them and also benefitall other group members.

The new standards, known as EC2000, require for the first timethat students receiving the B.S. degree “understand the impact of engineering solutions in aglobal, economic, environmental, and societal context.” Other national bodies have similarstandards2The reason behind such criteria is the recognition that, by its definition as the

In general,many researchers consider educational “outreach” to be informal, out-of-school experiences forstudents [43].One possible reason for the lack of easy-to-locate research in minority engineering recruitment isthe loose, poorly defined use of the terms “outreach” and “recruitment” in engineering educationresearch.
