Inaddition to considering the social ramifications of construction based on their selected zones,students research a location of their choice and propose technologies for use in that community.They evaluate the social impact of these technologies and incorporate a qualitative analysis intoan overall social impact report. This project gives students the chance to solve a technicalchallenge that is inextricably linked to social factors within the community. By integratingprojects into an earlier course of the engineering curriculum, students learn early on thatengineering requires a broad range of skills, is not always an exact, straightforward process, andthat there is

Using a literature review, the presence of a care penalty in engineeringis described, and an argument is advanced that the “Changing the Conversation”campaign may have been a contributing factor.In conclusion, it is important to raise awareness of the care penalty and to identify waysto financially compensate workers who provide substantial unpriced services such as“caring on the job”. The future of engineering includes STEMpathy, which is the explicitintegration of science, technology, engineering, and math with empathy (i.e., human-centered design, community-engaged design, etc.).

After students havecreated a battery design that meets the deliverables of the activity, they will need to troubleshootone of many possible realistic problems that can occur. This activity attempts to engage studentsin practices typical of real engineering work, including working in teams, designing experiments,learning from failure, and managing uncertainty. Rather than doing measures after students leavethe laboratory, we investigate which engineering epistemic practices they engage in whilecompleting the laboratory.

As such, engineering ethics are a part of thiscomplex relationship and the education of engineering students should be effective in makingthem more ethically minded.

Towards this goal, we interviewed a diverse cohort of eight first-yearengineering students at a large, land-grant, Hispanic-Serving Institution in the U.S. during theFall 2022 semester. Students participated in two one-hour interviews at the start and end of thesemester on topics including their making skills, experiences in the makerspace, participationlevel in groups, perceived recognition as engineers, and feeling of belongingness in theengineering community and makerspaces. This paper presents lessons-learned from the interviewimplementation process, including dealing with disruptions from the
