Indian Science & Engineering Society (AISES) is a national, nonprofit organization, which nurtures building of community by bridging science and technology with traditional Native values. Through its educational programs, AISES provides opportunities for American Indians and Native Alaskans to pursue studies in science, engineering, and technology arenas. The trained professionals then become technologically informed leaders within the Indian community. AISES' ultimate goal is to be a catalyst for the advancement of American Indians and Native Alaskans as they seek to become self-reliant and self-determined members of society. § Society of Women Engineers (1950) The Society

Trint. For RQ1, both authors explored the teacher statements related to the importanceof ethics and environmental/societal impacts. The extent that the teachers discussed theimportance of these topics and why was evaluated through a negotiated process. The analysiswas complicated by the fact that the teachers differed in how they defined ethics; for example,some appeared to limit their definition to microethics while others focused more on macroethics(for more information see [15, 16]). For RQ2, the types of obstacles described by the teacherswere analyzed using emergent, thematic coding [17]. The first author led this effort, then the twoauthors negotiated the initially defined codes. Both authors applied the codes to all of thetranscripts

The study of robots has received a considerable amount of attention in the past two decades. The term“robot” was mentioned in the literature as early as the 1920’s. It was, however, not until the late 1970’s that acommunity of scholars dedicated in this subject emerged. The field of robotics is unique in that it incorporatesmultiple disciplines: specialties include computer science, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,physics, and mathematics, to name a few. Due to this interdisciplinary nature, constructing a robot requiresunderstanding of various facets of the aforementioned areas of expertise. By the early 80’s the technology had matured enough to produce robots with reasonable size, weight,and capability. Robots can now
