in partnership with the library and the School ofEngineering to raise the level of awareness of technical standards and standards usage oncampus. The effort was a result of a campus-wide collaboration that provided a low-cost methodof introducing technical standards and providing a foundation to develop a series of online toolsaccessible to the campus community. The event featured guest speakers representative of sixmajor national and international standards bodies in addition to faculty, staff and students. Thepanels provided discussions on the background of the various types of standards and industriesimpacted, the development and implementation of these documents, the ways in which studentsand faculty can become more familiar with these

The pedagogical approachesneed to have the right approach to include the students’ views and voices to some degree. It isimportant to retain the students’ autonomy and perspectives. They need to own their role as activeparticipants of the class.While the new pedagogical approaches increase student participation, they are yet to tap into thestudents' actual thoughts and learnings within the classroom (unless the classroom does activelearning, and in particular includes reflective practice and various ways of engagement and sharingof perspectives).

AlthoughTaylorism has largely vanished from contemporary workplace, many have argued that educationsystems of today are still rooted in Taylorism, or ‘factory model’ for education [1], [3].In the factory model, learners are treated as parts and materials, in which standard curricula,tests, and teaching pedagogies are applied to shape learners into finished products that areneeded by the society [4], [5]. The analogy between the factory model and its counterpart ineducation is shown in Figure 2. In this view, instructors teach subjects in a sequential manner asprescribed by department-level and college-level

Connecting to above,popular media, including videogames, may be one means to support greater engineering andtechnological literacy. There are many ways technological literacy has been defined [3], [29]–[31]. For example, the International Technology and Engineering Education Association (ITEEA)identified five aspects of technological literacy [29]: • Understanding the Nature of Technology, • Understanding of Technology and Society, • Understanding of Design, • Abilities for a Technological World, and • Understanding of the Designed World.Additionally, the National Academies of Engineering [30] released a report
