When Ward College of Technology was invited to participate in the FIPSE grant,the original plan was to have a traditional FIG with a writing course and a content coursein which the writing course assignments would relate to one of the technology courses.However, in the course of developing the FIG, the writing instructor and one of themathematics instructors at Ward College (the authors of this paper) began to talk aboutthe problems they

The research question for this study is: What is the role ofproblem-oriented pedagogical strategies in increasing the diversity of students in technicaleducation among community college students? In this paper, we argue that success intechnology and engineering education requires technical capital, which is experience with“tinkering,” manipulating tools, doing hands-on work, and knowing the process of solvingproblems that require technical solutions.
