For the remaining five months of the schoolterm, the youth were responsible for shadowing and collaborating with their professional andundergraduate videography mentors to produce a short (5-7 minute) “digital story” about asustainable design project that could be presented to public audiences.

of four to six students and often one mentor, thisapproach would be taxing for one instructor teaching 20 to 30 students. However, because ourcourse has a stable of experienced mentors, we can have several simultaneous critique sessionsfor a class of 42 students. In addition, for the critiquing sessions, we use a special classroom(shown in Figure 2) that has conference-style tables. Each table, which seats six students and amentor, has a large computer monitor on one end such that each manuscript can be projected toallow for targeted discussion of a passage.Preliminary Results: The approach of scaling technical writing by using undergraduatementors shows much promise, but faces significant challenges For this proof-of-concept paper

The roles and responsibilities that are traditionally held bywomen emphasize family responsibilities over professional job, especially in fields such asengineering that are considered masculine [19]. Forgasz et al. [20] emphasize that STEM fields,especially mathematics, science, and computing, are globally and locally perceived as male-dominated fields. This view likely discourages Middle Eastern women from continuing in thesefields and leads to the continuation of their underrepresentation.

First, it is necessary for engineering academics to understand engineeringpractice at least to a level sufficient to educate their students. Second, curriculum designreflects contemporary understanding of engineering practice. Any weaknesses will bereflected in less than optimal choices in the engineering curriculum.Sheppard et al15 presents a view of engineering practice based partly on literature16-18 andpartly on perceptions of academics and students. While each of the reports they cite presentsfascinating insights into particular instances of engineering practice, none present a unifyingframework that enables them to be related and compared to each other.
