Education, 2023Beyond Uncritical Blindness: How critical praxis about engineering for community development could lead to socially responsible and just projectsAbstractThis paper explores how using concepts and frameworks from Science and Technology Studies(STS) to think and practice critically about engineering for community development (ECD) is anecessary precondition and preparation if engineering educators hope to instill sociallyresponsible behavior in our students and social justice in their community projects. With thesignificant surge of community engagement projects in US engineering programs, there is agrowing need for developing critical lenses for engineering students involved in communitydevelopment, so
