environmental andsocial performance together with economic viability. The challenge is to reduce this powerfulabstract concept into a rigorous educational framework, with clear-cut methods, tools, and metrics,so it can be integrated into engineering curricula and practiced by professionals. The UnitedNations defines sustainability in terms of development that meets the needs of the present withoutcompromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This requires a mutuallyoptimal usage of natural, societal, and economic resources. Sustainability education necessitatesthe use of unconventional approaches as against the traditional lecture-based style. Someinstitutions have tried to develop a sustainability curriculum using the

SUNY Canton welcomed me, and has given me hands on experience that has helped me greatly. I am currently a junior in the Mechanical Engineering Tech program. Beyond classes, I co-founded three clubs, including the Society of Manufacturing Engineers, fostering a community of enthusiasts. My farm experience instilled in me a strong work ethic and problem-solving skills, shaping

It also establishes a set of “Appropriate Performance Tasks, (APTs)” inspecific courses to foster cross-cultural interactions among students in order to assess globalcompetency. The paper also covers rubrics used for this purpose.Introduction:NYIT is a non-profit independent, private institution of higher education.

It is assumed thatthese students had not taken prior courses/classes in communication and professionalism, as theyare not required in the mechanical engineering curriculum. Also these students were told aboutthe active learning format of the course on the first day of class, and only two graduate studentsdropped the course because they had previously studied the material/topics in other courses.

Session 2666 Learning By Design — What Have We Learned? Louis L Bucciarelli ECSEL, MITIn October, 1997, ECSEL held a workshop in order to assess, and continue to promote, theintegration of design throughout the engineering curriculum as a means of renovatingengineering education. The workshop was divided into three sessions: A first focused on the useof computers in support of learning by design; the second, on the integration of design intoengineering science courses, in particular, courses in mechanics; the third, on industry drivendesign and manufacturing

We locate the current study within the landscape of culturallyresponsive teaching and pedagogy [12]-[15]. As used here, culturally responsive teaching (CRT)refers to the learning environment and the ways it connects curriculum to learners’ backgrounds,promotes educational equity and excellence, creates community, develops agency, efficacy, andempowerment, and cultivates cooperation, collaboration, reciprocity, and mutual responsibility[16]. Several studies have explored culturally responsive teaching in varied contexts, includingSTEM technician education [17], science and math
. Our goal in this section is not to present an in-depth analysis of STEM education, but some insights as they relate to effective STEM educationalmodels, the state-of-the science and engineering education in K-12, the poor positioning of STEMeducation which could lead to disillusionment among students, and on the role of engineering inschool curriculum. In the next section, we present the design and implementation details of thisprogram. Finally, we present the data collection and analysis before concluding this paper.2 STEM Imperative and Educational RoboticsThe goals of the MTRC Robotics camp were to 1) introduce 7th-12th grade students to three majorengineering disciplines and 2) excite and engage them to learn practical electronics

Thiscan be best done by introducing engineering design earlier in the curriculum in a comprehensivecourse that presents the different components of the design process in one complete package.Based on the feedback gathered and presented above, the objectives of offering a newIntroduction to Mechanical Engineering Design course are then: • to deliver the existing three courses worth of material to the students in a more effective manner, without sacrificing too much content, • to expose students earlier in their educational careers to the types of challenges that they will confront later in classes, on co-op, and in
