The specific capstone course outcome this course is laying thefoundation for is to “design systems, components, or processes with realistic constraints such aseconomic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health, safety, manufacturing, andsustainability”.

Thestudy uses the Sustainability Education Framework for Teachers (Warren, Archambault, &Foley, 2014) that embraces four ways of thinking including futures, values, systems, andstrategic thinking to address complex educational challenges.Futures thinking focuses on working to address tomorrow’s problems today with anticipatoryapproaches to understand and prepare for future changes, problems, and solutions (Warren et al.,2014). Values thinking is about recognizing the concepts of ethics, equity, and social justice(Warren et al., 2014).

The other three blocks are lab, design, and ethics courses. Sheppard et al.indicated how engineering programs introduced theory before practice where open-ended designand lab courses were at a later stage of the curriculum. They noted that engineering ethics,humanities, and social science coursework were not treated as an integral part of the engineeringcurriculum [8].

The goal of this project was to provide asystem for K-12 educators to incorporate service learning into their curriculum. Thereare several objectives that the project is to accomplish: 1. Promote the entry of women and minorities into the STEM fields 2. Increase the potential pool of engineers and scientists in the United States 3. Contribute to the development of STEM educators 4. Enhance cultural sensitivity, ethics and social responsibility in future STEM workers.This system is designed to ultimately increase

Thus there is a need for engineers who can interact with the publicworldwide as well as provide the most appropriate solution 8,3.
