resolute hope – which counters pessimism towards changein an individualistic manner, seeing the world as able to be molded by action, and sparksindividual agency. Students frequently cited types of individual action as steps to move towards avague vision of democracy or a world without predatory surveillance. The breadth of actionscited was expansive, from researching tech companies’ privacy scandals, to educating andspreading awareness, organizing petitions or marches, using technical skills for good, and simplyraising one’s voice. Notably, a few students mentioned how their work in class increased theirsense of agency. One student, double majoring in international relations and computer sciencewrote, “I truly felt I was able to make an impact

Thus far, their findings demonstratethat parents play a pivotal role in children‟s education.1, 2 Many societies have alsoacknowledged the importance and benefits of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) education for international leadership roles in the 21st century global economy. AmongSTEM disciplines, increasing the focus upon engineering education is a recent and growingtrend.

veterans recollected acquiring teamwork skills in the military. As studentveterans enrolled in engineering programs, these dispositions naturally transferred to theclassroom. Dalton, a Navy student veteran discusses this transition, In group projects I find myself taking the lead and telling people how to organize their work and making sure everything is done on time. I find myself using my experience leading teams to accomplish certain goals. Participants in this study state that each disposition is important for their survival orsuccess in their engineering program.

Based on a pragmatic theory approach (1), the paper proposes a pattern fordistinguishing the ‘science’ of computer science from its ‘engineering’ aspects.
