The success of these examples was the alignment, clear communication andconcern for the interests of all stakeholders (faculty, students, administration). Each participantbenefitted from the others without paying a substantial cost (in terms of space or time). Thegeneral structure for finding synergies rests on faculty being able to transfer experiments fromthe lab to the classroom or extracurricular spaces, share equipment from across these spaces, andbring educational activities into labs and makerspaces (Figure 2).These experiences revealed that students must be engaged in a transparent way and that

Teaching students to designwith communities and not for communities is dependent upon the context of the design process.This paper addresses the pedagogy of social engineering in the capstone design projects rooted inthe framing of the design process for collaborative creativity.The programs that enact multidisciplinary curriculums are exemplar in satisfying the ABET a-kguidelines. Institutions of higher education that additionally use multi-year projects and employdesign progression though the undergraduate curriculum have more success in generatingprojects that have lasting effects on the communities.

For thepurposes of this paper, we refer to only six works [3-8] that substantially either reference theenormity of literature on why engineers need such skills or they present cited contributions to theunderstanding of the needs for engineering students to learn to work with other disciplines inbusiness environments. While there are dozens of other relevant works, these works [3-8] wereused, along with input of alumni, as the basis for the justification for the launch of this program.Additionally, there are a number of published works describing methods of

approach is to demand more engagement from the students [2]. This method is shown tobe effective as seen in prior literature [2-6]. However, it is observed that while students are morecollaborative in such dynamic learning environments, they still tend to align themselves to theviews of their team, and eventually, the direction of the course is defined by the instructor. So,while the active learning approach does bring the team along in the process of learning, there aresome aspects that still need to be addressed. One such aspect is the students’ engagement in termsof communicating their doubts and confusions. Typically, students show their original work viaassignments, quizzes, projects, and tests. However, the timeline for such activities is

In general, surveyresults indicated that the students considered the system useful and simplistic. However, carefulanalysis of user feedback showed that the gamified mechanics did not have much impact onstudents’ experience of fun and engagement. Although, it was probably due to the circumstancesin which students had to study (studying for the final exam and not for fun).Dominguez et al.

In addition, ASCE advocates theadoption of the Body of Knowledge (BOK) by civil engineering programs, which includesadditional “soft” outcomes on public policy and leadership. How to insure students are obtainingthese outcomes is obviously program specific and many programs struggle with how to includethese outcomes in an already “packed” technical curriculum. As such

None of it has required much, in terms of resources. All that we really haveneeded, was to listen – really listen – to young learners’ voices and opinions on how to betterexplain difficult concepts in engineering and thus advocate for STEM. Once we ‘got’ that part,the rest was easy.It is hoped that this work will be of value to fellow engineering professionals, minorityengineering networks, as well as administrators and students, as we introspect, reflect, anddesign content to engage communities we live in to help better prepare children for careers inengineering.AcknowledgmentsAll in progress

This is oftenconsidered as a flaw on the student’s end in receiving what the instructors conveyed. However, itis a value to their learning and growth. The real learning occurs when students can engage ‘whothey are’ with ‘what they learn’ [7 - 9].To assess the student’s actual learning, in this work, an assessment of the disparity betweenintention and retention is performed via review of reflections in an inquiry-based course.
