It enhances the academic experience of students by relating academic content andcourse objectives to issues in the community.Community engagement through service learning has become a well-established educationapproach in liberal arts and science education. While engineering education seems like a naturalfit, community engagement through service learning with very few exceptions is not integratedwithin the engineering curriculum. To provide hands-on educational experience, traditionally,engineering schools have developed partnership with industry through various programs such asinternships, co-operative education and sponsored research

forstudents from diverse racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds to STEM curriculums in K-12 schools, out-of-school STEM programs are an important pathway for increased studentengagement [4]. By engaging students in out-of-school engineering experiences, the engineeringeducation community hopes to increase students’ interests in pursuing careers in engineering byarousing excitement through their engagement with engineering activities [5-9]. Researchsuggest that two primary factors for diverse students limited engagement with engineering as afuture profession is their narrow conception of engineering careers and their decreasing interestsin core subjects like math and science as they progress through middle school [5-6].

engineering education, students might face uncertainty when theydesign due to lack of relevant scientific and mathematical knowledge, or unfamiliarity withtechnological tools such as CAD [8]. Due to the degree of uncertainty associated withengineering design, the ability to handle uncertainty is one of the main characteristics ofengineering design thinking [4]. Therefore, it is important for students to learn how to manageuncertainty as part of engineering and scientific practices. In fact, scholars in the field have urgedfor uncertainty to be included as a central part of engineering education [11]. “Managing uncertainty refers to behaviors an individual engages in to enable action inthe face of uncertainty” [8, pp. 494].

A common criticism, however, is that once atthe university, their teachers rely too heavily on lectures and workbook exercises, spoon-feedingthem information in a pipeline model of communication which places the teacher in the role of“expert” and student in the role of “passive receiver” of knowledge.
