The education and training agenda states that “ethics is alsobecoming a ‘must-have’ in any responsible curriculum.” [1, p. 13] The proposed agenda foreducation and training recognizes that data exists in a complex environment that includesprotecting human subjects in data and performing ethical analysis. The agenda for infrastructureto support data science research and education includes management and accessibility of usefuldatasets. The goal of the new scenarios is to cope with technical and social challenges “that willrender data-driven systems useful, effective, and productive, rather than

Be flexible and adapt activities as needed, 3.) Create asupportive environment where struggle and failure are okay and 4.) Leverage your network todevelop relationships with organizations you wish to partner with. These recommendations canbe used to support engineering educators as they seek to transition historically in-person informalSTEM experiences into virtual experiences and create new virtual experiences to broaderparticipation. Virtual experiences can help expand access to engineering by creating programswhich are accessible to participants who do not have these types of experiences

They decided not to pursue it but found that only 8 to 10 additional credits would have been required; • Several students who switched in from other engineering programs; • A student whose secondary focus area was Swedish; • A student who spent their first semester at ASU as an “exploratory” student and joined our program in their second semester.So, while we lack statistics, we have a reasonable number of interesting anecdotal datapoints.When we ask our students why they selected our

IntroductionA variety of design courses exist in engineering education. The primary objective of suchcourses is to teach engineering design fundamentals utilizing repeatable design techniques. Themost popular approach to teach undergraduate engineering design is through a structured,problem solving method that students use to tackle open-ended design problems1-4. The focushas been shifting toward providing tools and techniques to new designers that allow them
