Yet,like all but one public HE in Virginia, our institution continues to fallshort of representing racial and ethnic diversity across ourenrollment (see for example Scratching the Surface,http://edreformnow.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/VA-Issue-Brief-4.15.pdf).

large.The student feedback supports the research hypothesis: (1) there was an improved understanding ofethical dilemmas and individual perspectives on social responsibility, and (2) preparing for role-playingactivities such as skit development and performance was challenging but improved student engagement.Since 2022, engineering students have overcome these challenges and learned new skills such as writingoriginal scripts and performing based on ethical theory, professional attributes, and personal experiences.Additionally, student groups were encouraged to use standalone audio devices rather than their personalphones for video production.In conclusion, early exposure to ethics during engineering education enables engineers to embraceprofessional

HFE design guidelines with a realisticengineering design process14, but can also boost the students’ interests in developing human-centered design15-16.This study discusses an educational scheme for integrating engineering design process with HFEprinciples. The study evaluates both aspects of knowledge through a course project that involvesan ergonomic design of a hand tool. Engineering design process and hand tool ergonomicsdesign guidelines modules are presented to the same cohort of engineering students to achieve aninsightful assessment. A selected product is designed using CAD software and the design isimported into a DHM software for ergonomic evaluation.3. Product Design Learning ModuleFigure 1 shows the learning module for IE305

through participation in outreach activities, and the first step in doingso is by establishing credibility through previous research findings in this area. We haveaddressed our questions from three perspectives that appear consistently throughout previousresearch studies: (1) Applicational values, (2) Professional values, and (3) Situational values.These terms have been applied to previous instructional methodology, and we believe that theyappeal to an engineering educator’s inquisitive nature by asking questions and generatinganswers. Each perspective is summarized briefly as follows: (1) Applicational values describe theoretical concepts of learning and cognition by presenting educational research supporting higher levels of

is the most important skill that anyone could learn [4]–[6]. During their educational period, engineering students encounter many problems that need tobe solved, either in the form of homework, exercises, reading course material, or design projects.Various educational investigations find that students who oversee their learning process byinterpreting requirements, planning and monitoring ongoing cognitive activities, and comparingoutcomes with internal and external standards, are more likely to be successful academically [7].In the engineering design perspective, higher awareness of the thinking processes leads to abetter quality design [8]. The ability to monitor and assess cognitive and metacognitive activitiesis also known as a self

experiences of students influenced their sustainability values and meaning-making in class.Lived experience formed another crucial factor that often goes unrecognized in formal education [23].The interviews revealed that minority and international students drew heavily on their personalexperiences as motivational factors. Yet, these experiences were seldom incorporated into the formalcurriculum in their prior experiences. Acknowledging the varying impact of sustainability and climatechange on different demographic groups [24], the paper suggests incorporating self-reflection and futureplanning in the engineering curricula. The case-study format also presented an opportunity for students toconsider the integration of a broader audience and have
