In this paper, we present the lessons learned fromour first four years, including assessment of our partnership model, impact on our communitypartner, and contributions to Stanford’s research.IntroductionCommunity engaged learning (used here interchangeably with the term service-learning)improves student learning by connecting theory with practice and classrooms with communities[1], [2]. Actively engaging students is essential because students learn more when they areintensely involved in their educational experience [3], [4]. Taking the further step of engagingstudents with community partners in joint projects can contextualize engineering and exposestudents to a broader view of who can become an engineer and who

outcomes and improve student engagement. The integration of AI tools has the potential to significantly impact student learning, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. This paper explores the impact of AI tools on student learning in engineering education, particularly in civil engineering. AI tools offer numerous benefits in engineering education, providing students with interactive and immersive learning experiences. These tools enable students to apply their theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios, enhancing their understanding and problem-solving skills. A survey was distributed to engineering students in civil engineering courses to gather feedback on the effectiveness of using AI tools, allowing for

engineers can sometimes run counter to the needs ofcommunities they serve and reinforce structures of power that maintain inequality. Civil Engineering in particular is inextricably linked up with societal change, and responsible engineering is about understanding wider environmental and social impacts ofdesign and construction. Patricia teaches creative design modules that give students tools and techniques (Human-centered design, VR collaborative design tools) to find their own brand of creativity, while prompting students to consider how their individualprivilege and biases impact on their design decisions.

Following the passage of the 1947 Taft-Hartley act, some US laborunions have formed as business unions, unions oriented around a belief that labor unions shouldbe run like businesses while posing no threat to the state or corporations employing theirmembers. These business unions tend to be less democratic and engage in an advocacy model ofchange that does not center its base of power on the workers and their communities [10]. Part ofthe power labor unions have comes from labor strikes and other forms of direct action, actsindividuals or groups take to bring about social change rather than relying on intermediaries orrepresentatives to act on their behalf.

Though there are many examples offirst-year projects, there are notably fewer instances of second-year projects found in theliterature.Another tactic that can increase retention is the development of learning communities of studentsthat continue from the freshman year to graduation [4]. The development of community amongstudents aids in their ability to complete their degrees. Furthermore, career mentoring by facultyduring the second year has been shown to increase retention in the sciences as well [5]. Taking ita step further, connecting students to their future is also very important during the second year[6]. These aspects are also

But finding such aconnection ultimately led them away from engineering.
