Considering how these specific negotiative practices play into the technical-artisticproduction of a performance, I found that the Dramatists engage in practices that challengetechnical rationality and make use of novel democratic organizational structures. Furthermore, I 2found that key contested figure at the site is that of in/authenticity in identities and practices. Inthis paper, I capture and substantiate these initial themes and present them as starting points forfurther study of queer students in STEM.The purpose of this pilot study is to give voice to queer students and their unique perspectives ontechnical work. It will serve as a basis for future research among queer engineering and

Why not introduce design earlier in engineering curricula? These questions led to a major research thrust area within SUCCEED, an NSF-sponsored engineeringeducation coalition composed of eight state-supported universities in the Southeastern United States.SUCCEED’s mission is to develop “Curriculum 21,” a comprehensive redesign of undergraduate engineeringeducation for the 21st century.

-technical audiences are too significant to ignore. In this time of ongoing discord betweenscientists, policymakers, and the public, the ways in which scientists communicate with thoseoutside of their profession is critical to improving scientific literacy [14], [15]. As Chan [16]argues, “In order for the lay public to shape an informed opinion of scientific discoveries andcontroversial developments, it is critical that scientists can communicate about research and theimplications of that research to promote awareness, clarity, as well as to respond to publicconcerns. These are the abilities that are lacking amongst many new science graduates.”Currently, there is a dearth of research regarding undergraduate students’ creative explanationsin their

Column seven shows the objective evaluation level, which is the sum of the products of theevaluation level and the method importance for each objective. While the evaluation levelrecords how well the particular metric is attained, the objective evaluation level records howclose we are to achieving each objective on a percentage basis.

deficiencies and fulfill our roles as engineering design educators? In this paper, we answer these questions based upon a new approach for teachingengineering design methods [43], that of product evolution or redesign. As with any designproblem, redesign includes the process steps of understanding customer needs, specificationplanning and development, benchmarking, concept generation, product embodiment, design formanufacturing, prototype construction and testing, and production. Yet, redesign also focuses onan additional and critical step, referred to here as reverse engineering [43; 53]. Reverseengineering initiates the redesign process wherein a product is predicted, observed, disassembled,analyzed, tested, “experienced,” and documented in
