This Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP), conducted insmall teams of students under faculty guidance, is intended to help students learn how the socialand cultural contexts of a problem impact its solution. Other learning outcomes are related toinformation literacy, teamwork and professionalism, and written and oral communication.12Most IQPs involve addressing open-ended problems posed by community-based agencies andorganizations. Through WPI’s Global Perspective Program, over half of WPI students completetheir IQP at one of 15 Project Centers in Africa, the

Service learning is anotherapproach that has increasingly been used and reported as an effective pedagogical strategy ininstruction of engineering ethics [3]-[5].

Fewer of them can consider stakeholders as an integral part of the solutiondevelopment process when this aspect is not emphasized in the question (prompt 4). Fifty percent of theparticipants discussed getting input from more than one stakeholder, and only 27% went beyond and madethem part of the team seeking to find a solution to the problem.Stakeholder awareness has been a relevant topic in engineering education

long-term relationships with STEM role models.Introduction Access to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education for all youthremains an educational equity issue in the United States, particularly for engineering. While theNext Generation Science Standards (NGSS) added engineering to the K-12 science standards in2013 [1], engineering is not a required subject in most school districts. Instead, engineering isprovided as an elective course, if offered at all. Not only does the integration of engineering inK-12 science classrooms help student learning [2], it provides access to students who might nototherwise be exposed to engineering as a profession. Increased access to engineering in K-12settings is an important step
