, where each question has answers lettered (i.e., A, B, C, D)and the quiz taker reads their results based on these (i.e., “If you answered mostly As, you…). Inaddition to careful wording, we saw this format as a means to mitigate the sense of being ranked.We wanted to invite members of the organization to comfortably place themselves on thetrajectory toward becoming community engaged, not reject it as out of reach. Thus, to also offeropportunities to learn and grow, we linked the categories (e.g., mostly Bs) to descriptions andideas; for example: “Your program is characterized as for the community. The role of the community is consultant. There may be an advisory board that the organization selected or identified out of

, technology, engineering, andmath (STEM) professionals is vital to strengthening the growing demand for engineers. Previousstudies about raising interest in STEM majors focused on (a) the number of undergraduatestudents who decide on a major prior to attending college, (b) common misconceptions regardingthe STEM field, and (c) the effectiveness of pedagogical techniques to increase curiosity.However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, pedagogical techniques to introduce K-12 students tothe STEM fields must be adjusted. This paper investigates the effectiveness of variousmethods to engage and interact with K-12 students interested in STEM during the COVID-19 learning environment and discusses key conclusions from a pilot 90-minute virtual modulefor K-12

learningenhances undergraduate students’ global sociotechnical competency, especially as it relates totheir ability to define and solve problems with people from diverse disciplinary backgrounds andlife experiences. Situated learning refers to how students learn under different a) configurationsof social relations (e.g., graduate/undergraduate; expert/non-expert; US/non-US students, etc.);b) pedagogical strategies for engineering problem definition and solution (e.g., remote vs.in-person; in-class vs. in-field); and c) different geographical contexts (e.g., in the US vs. inColombia) affect faculty and student learning. Global sociotechnical competency refers to havingthe knowledge, skills, and attitudes to define and solve engineering problems as socio

This paper focuses mostly inNGOs that work in community development through technology development and capacitybuilding (Group 2) in which most engineering teams participate, while recognizing thatengineers also participate in the three other types of NGOs.2.2 The Emergence of Engineering To Help (ETH) InitiativesAlso beginning in the late 1980s, engineering education reforms attempted to a) emphasizedesign education after three decades of dominance by the engineering sciences [5]–[7], b)increase international education for engineers in light of post-Cold War
