It is necessary an analytical lookover the action before, during and after it (considering the perspective of what it can be).Observing the difficulties that the future Engineer will face it is interesting to make him to lookinside himself and view the process in which he is inserted. So he will be able to resist thepressures of fashions. He will learn how to consider and to act in each moment in according tohis own singularities.In this case the globalization does not mean to grind neither homogenizing but to approach thecontact with the differences so that new diversities can emerge to attend the necessities andsingularities of the person.III.

Taking an intersectional approach is especially vital forfeminist educational research, as too often such interventions solely emphasize the experiences ofprivileged white women. For example, Kimberly A. Scott and Patricia Garcia (2016) found that women ofcolor were often left out of feminist research on equity in STEM. Jones, Moore, and Walton (2016) argueit is vital to center perspectives of marginalized technical communicators in order to reshape thediscipline and industry of technical and professional communication.

Participating companies play an important rolein defining competency gaps, developing case studies, placing students in internships, anddeveloping state of the art laboratories. Competency gaps serve as a driver to curriculumdevelopment. One objective of the program has been to enhance diversity and encourageunderrepresented minorities to pursue careers in engineering by presenting them with aseamless pathway early on in their education process. The paper will also provide answersto such questions as: How to develop a stable pipeline of students? What is the role ofindustry in program development?

Results indicate that themedian bachelor degreed US engineer will earn $4.2MM over the span of a forty year career,which corresponds to a net present value of $1.8MM assuming an annual cost of capital equal to4.1%.

Technology education should abandon the thought of infusing any form of engineering concepts into the curriculum.Clearly there are varying perspectives regarding infusing engineering concepts or not intotechnology education. The authors of this manuscript subscribe to the second camp of thought(i.e., to infuse engineering-related concepts into an existing technology education curriculum andcourses). Therefore, the purposes of this manuscript are to: (a) present initial findings regardingwhat engineering concepts should be incorporated into technology education; (b) explain howinfusing engineering concepts into technology has occurred through the initial professionaldevelopment work of a

Without any changes, we feel that theStructural Assessment process, conducted with tools like the ones we have built, offersinstructors an additional tool for their assessment toolbox.
