different STEM disciplines, course pedagogies, academic levels, and needsindependent of each other. However, using only an emergent approach to coding would haveobscured the topical inadequacies of our modules. Therefore, we conducted a literature reviewon the most common categorization of data science concepts and techniques. Despite theevolving nature of data science as an academic discipline, we found general trends of datascience concepts and techniques common across disciplines. These general trends werecategorized into six broad categories: (1) data acquisition, (2) data quality issues, (3) data useand visualization, (4) machine learning, (5) data ethics, privacy, and security, and (6)miscellaneous.

) papersincluded the term “social justice,” compared to 49 in 2015 [8]. Although mentioned, socialjustice was not the primary focus of the majority of these articles. Bielefeldt interviewed 1,268faculty who embed ethics and societal impact issues in their classes and found that 27% of thesurveyed faculty integrate social justice/poverty topics into their teaching [8]. The facultyinterviewed believed that teaching social justice topics was insufficient in their programs,although no broad consensus exists on what level would be sufficient.In general, the literature demonstrate that two primary approaches have been used to integratesocial justice into the engineering curricula: one approach dedicates a single course that focuseson teaching engineering ethics

AI is a challenging topic for beginners to learn due to complex fundamentaltheories (e.g., machine learning, game theory) [25]. In order to motivate learners and help themlearn, researchers proposed several methods to teach AI to students including the cumulative wayto teach AI components [26], the use of games [25, 27–29], emotional intelligence [30], andconsideration of ethical aspects [31, 32]Cybersecurity and AI Education. In terms of the studies that consider both cybersecurity andAI education, there exists only one study in the literature. Farahmand [33] shared the

The plan wasdesigned to enable students to gain the skills to design and conduct experimental testing,simulate, analyze, and interpret data and can design a system to meet the set needs withinrealistic boundaries such as environmental, social, economic, political, ethical, health and safety,and sustainability. Students are expected to have the capacity to work effectively onmultidisciplinary teams, to develop the skills to classify, articulate, and solve engineeringdiscrete problems

The curricular module has two settings, Level I and LevelII, targeting the first and second CSP courses for non-computing majors, such as the CSPrinciples and DS Principles courses for non-majors. Both of these two levels incorporate theusage of the DSLP into the teaching and learning, assisting students to obtain hands on practice ofhandling, understanding, and analyzing real world data sets, as well as an awareness ofdata-related ethics and privacy.The first targeted course is equivalent to AP CSP and is offered to first year college

Additionally,because white males represent the majority of engineering jobs, data from this group will behighly useful to understanding inclusion perspectives in the workplace. Of note, however, is theimpact that underrepresented groups may have on inclusivity in engineering. McGee and Bentleydescribe how black and Latinx undergraduate STEM students develop an equity ethic or aconcern for social justice based on past suffering from inequities [19]. It’s possible thatunderrepresented groups in engineering feel a desire for inclusivity because of an equity ethic

While engineers arenot solely responsible for achieving these goals, they do have much to contribute. To that end,the U.S. National Society of Professional Engineers’ Code of Ethics expects engineers “to adhereto the principles of sustainable development in order to protect the environment for futuregenerations” [3]. In addition, the SDGs overlap with several of the National Academy ofEngineering’s 14 Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st century, such as providing accessto clean water and ensuring access to clean energy, but they also go far beyond to address therestoration of ecosystems and women empowerment [4].
