Reveal existing gaps in technology and educational strategies. 4. Propose evidence-based recommendations for developing and implementing more effective educational technologies. 5. Inform and influence policies aimed at improving accessibility, entry into STEM fields, and retention rates for DHH students.Our review reveals several key findings: a significant gap in user studies that involve real-worldtesting with DHH students, limited funding in accessibility literature, and a notable lack of focuson classroom-specific

Furthermore, as an additional positive outcome,bolstering curricula might raise awareness of these topics on many levels, ranging from thestudents themselves to the public at large. This paper aims at extending a previously publishedwork which proposed a theoretical structure to embed environmental sustainabilityconsiderations into engineering and technology curricula [5]. Here, the advantages andapplications of classroom projects tailored to include this emerging discipline are demonstrated1 Elif Kongar, Ph.D., Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Technology Management, University of Bridgeport, 221University Avenue, School of
