–particularly Latinos/as/xs – have been perceived as disruptive elements of theAmericanization project [1]. Latinos/as/xs have been framed as individuals that are unable tosucceed in academic spaces because of inherent deficits and thus unable to accommodate tothe demands of American exceptionalism [2]. Engineering is no exception to this deficitframing of Latinos/as/xs. In fact, engineering has a long history of discrimination towardminoritized groups that is still present today in engineering programs [3]. For instance,Latino/a/x engineering students still contend with the enduring repercussions of deficitideologies, racialization, and a process of assimilation through subtractive schooling [4, 5].Engineering has, too, embraced an educational

. For example, Scenario 3 on‘general-purpose’ AI is inspired by the EU AI Act’s requirement [28] that proprietors of ‘generalpurpose’ AI systems report details about model architecture and training processes to national AIauthorities. Each scenario, along with the proposed AI regulations that Congress can vote on, aredescribed in Appendix B. To start the game, only members of Evil Inc. are told internal companyinformation that motivates their lobbying efforts. For example: “Evil Inc.’s large language modelis only successful because its model architecture is kept a secret, so Evil Inc. should preventCongress from requiring the disclosure of any model architecture information.” Each round, EvilInc. members decide how to distribute a limited

design courses often revolve around ideas like social justice[3], Human-CenteredDesign[4], Sustainable design[5], or some other means of asking students to engage with designbesides simply focusing on technical requirements[6, 7]. One of the author’s own experiences with a freshman design project revolving around thedesign, build, and test of a scale model of a passive solar home, demonstrates why requiringstudent to engage beyond the technical requirements is so important in engineering design. Afterthe first iteration of the design project it because obvious that students only addressed thetechnical requirements for the project without ever thinking about the fact people live in homes.Therefore, on a subsequent iteration of the passive solar

On the first day,before any material was taught, students completed a survey about CT, and students playedKahoot after each session to test their knowledge about the material. Students retook the CTsurvey on the last day of the program. The workshops were identical to MMC lessons, withonly minor changes and translations for the KW group.

At that time, education at WPI gave students little room to becreative as every student was given a prescriptive curriculum that had to be strictly followed.Engineering instruction did not include social paradigms and challenges of the time.

The results showed that teachers acknowledged the significanceof funds of knowledge as a tool for empowering and engaging students in STEAM relatedactivities.

The teachers represented multiplesubjects (engineering, computer science, science, and math), school districts, public and privateschools, as well as religious and nonsectarian institutions. Five of the teachers had bachelor’sdegrees in engineering disciplines, and some also had engineering work experience in industry.The study found that 13 of the 14 teachers integrated engineering ethical issues. However, themajority of the teacher interviewees viewed environmental and societal impacts as being differentfrom ethics, revealing confusion about macroethics. Interestingly, among the 7 teachers whosefocus was engineering education, 3 did not believe that they integrated engineering ethics and/orenvironmental/societal impacts into their
