oriented but I really enjoy a lot of creative writing or reading and just anything that will take me to a different world or universe instead of just staying in this one. And that doesn't normally fit with engineering. (00:22:23)Her first answer was to identify as an engineer, but then she described engineers by commonstereotypes (“very logical, math and science oriented”) and how her interests (“creative writingor reading”) extend beyond that stereotype. Such a stereotype is particularly intriguing in light ofcalls for engineering education to integrate more opportunities to learn innovation skills (Byerset al., 2013; Ferguson et al., 2012; National Academy of Engineering, 2004), which depend onimagination.

Exploring energy literacy at the undergraduate level will better preparestudents for energy-related careers, improve educational experiences, and help internalize practicalenergy knowledge. To understand how prepared undergraduate engineering students are for futurecareers in energy-related industries, measuring energy literacy in students can provide greaterinsights for understanding and improving practical energy literacy development. This briefexplores current energy literacy scales’ transferability to measure energy literacy within specificdomains as well as key indicators of quality and reliability for future scale development andassessment. From our review of current scales, we explore areas where change is necessary

, some are merely suggested. The end-users read the technological textand produce the “music” as they go.So the liberal arts can be important qualifiers of an engineering education in two ways. First,they provide the context so students can make connections between technology and the rest ofthe culture. Second, they provide a metaphor that helps us understand technology by showinghow artist and audience interact.6 ConclusionWhile engineers should understand postmodernism so that it gives them pause before using anengineering model, the lack of a center in this philosophy need not lead to despair. Engineeringhas shown by example that its models of reality, imperfect as they may be, are good enough.Along with Shearer, I “would worry about

So far, we have already surpassed our proposed goals and we have become moreambitious. We also strive to influence more students around the island to choose a career in STEM.Our next steps will be to reach more cities across the island and influence twice as much studentsthan we have impacted so far for each of our initiatives and projects.

In hercoursework, Rebecca tends to spend more time than her peers to make sense of the mechanismsof the details of her design.
