learning goals for pre-college engineering are stillbeing contested. One argument, which is promoted in science standards, is that engineeringdesign provides an authentic context to apply science concepts [4] [5] [6]. However, others arguethat this represents too narrow a view of engineering and promotes misconceptions [7] [8]. Inresponse to these concerns, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) andAdvancing Excellence in P12 Engineering Education introduced a Framework for P-12Engineering Learning [9]. This framework outlines learning goals for engineering literacy thatmove beyond a narrow focus on practices, including engineering habits of mind and knowledge.In addition, the authors call for further research to scaffold learning

Within a class of 58 students, two had severe concussions (and were unable to dowork for at least 2 weeks), another was hospitalized more than 1 week. As seniors, these studentsknew to reach out and let me know. Among first-year students I would often not find out aboutissues – the students would simply stop coming to class and not respond to emails. I would laterfind out a severe issue had occurred when the Dean’s office would retroactively withdraw thestudent from all courses, etc. Even more troubling: three suicides (at least) among engineeringstudents (college wide) in one academic year.

To address this gap, the University ofTexas, Arlington assembled an ad-hoc taskforce from various universities to develop a nationalstandard of maker-based competencies to enhance student learning outcomes to impactundergraduate students [17]. Among the taskforce was the University of Nevada, Reno. In 2017and 2019, the group received two National Leadership grants from the Institute of Museum andLibrary Services (IMLS).To form their framework, the grant team used the competencies-based education model, whichincludes the assessment of learning outcomes and learning that is personalized, measurable, andtransferable [16].

education at the high school level. Short bootcamp or workshop-styleprograms are common where educators and mentors work with high school students for 1-2 weeks.Similar to code.org, the learning goals in such programs are skewed toward the input data (usuallyimages) and the output results (predictions shown in a GUI) while skipping the technical detailsdue to lack of student preparation and time. Nevertheless, the high school students go out of theseworkshops with increased motivation for studying CS [13], increased preparation for college [14],and a positive outlook of AI [15].Educational programs that include technical details have also been organized. In 2019, a work-shop [16] was conducted using Scratch (scratch.mit.edu) to teach concepts like
