Education for Social Justice: Critical Explorations and Opportunities (Springer, 2013), and Engineering Justice: Transforming Engineering Education and Practice (IEEE-Wiley, 2017). Born in Colombia, he learned to value and learn from the poorest people in Colombian society. As an engineering student, he learned the strengths and limitations of engineering assumptions and methods for engaging communities, particularly those neglected by engineering. In his Ph.D., he learned that engineering has culture that can be studied and transformed for the wellbeing of communities, social justice, and sustainability.Sofia Lara SchlezakMateo Rojas © American Society for Engineering Education, 2022

Most recently, she spent the final year of her PhD at the University of Cape Town, integrating her benchtop cardiovascular research into computational models. In 2018-2019, she spent a year living and working in Tanzania, in East Africa through the Fulbright US Scholar program, teaching and conducting clinical research. Now at UD, her scholarship work includes embedding global engineering opportunities into the engineering curriculum through study abroad programs, new courses, serving as an advisor for UD’s Engineers Without Borders, and hosting global design workshops. ©American Society for Engineering

As a result, we have both an opportunity and anobligation to inspire and motivate students in addition to helping them develop prerequisite skillsfor other courses.Digital logic labsAs at most universities, our offering of the course has a substantial laboratory component, wherestudents put in the hard (and rewarding) work of translating pencil-and-paper logic designs

from a Student Perspective?AbstractThis paper investigates student perceptions of the relationships between social media,engineering, and leadership. Participants in this study consisted of freshmen engineeringstudents enrolled in a first-semester introduction to engineering course at the University of SouthCarolina. A grounded theory approach was used, in which instructional activities and datacollection processes occurred concurrently, were guided by one another, and developed over thecourse of the study. The phrase “social media engineering leadership” is developed within thispaper to include social media mediated communication within an engineering leadership context.The results of this study suggest that social media engineering

However, it was offered to only engineering students, and with aplatform-independent app development methodology. Feedback from all students convinced usto seek a simpler and better integrated app development process.

Thus, though photosculpture was dismissed as beingunable to truly capture aesthetic “beauty” or creative “genius”—fundamental properties ofartistic mastery—3D printing needs only to afford the ability to be “more creative.” In an oddway, the rhetoric of 3D printing, particularly its ability to further galvanize a burgeoning popularcreative movement, may be successful because of its lack of the ontological burden of art. Inother words, because 3D printing does not have to strive to be art, it is free to do educational andcritical work beyond art. We draw out some of the implications of this comparative history fortechnological literacies—both in terms of public engagement with technology and in
