the changing engineering and engineering technology curriculum,there has also been a long-standing call to strengthen engineering and technology educators’capabilities and preparation to perform the task of educating students. This latter call, however,had remained virtually unanswered for more than a century. A recent response to this call isSPEED: Strengthening the Performance of Engineering and Engineering Technology Educatorsacross the Disciplines. SPEED is a concept for a formal, nationally recognized continuingeducation program for engineering and technology educators being developed with the supportof the ASEE. In the introductory part of this paper, the authors briefly present an overview ofprevious work which has led to the

And I guess I assumed all the information given to me is all the information I needed, which was very wrong. I should have asked what actually is at stake here? Who's affected by it? How critical is it to have it done by this deadline? How much testing do they need to do when it's no longer in my hands and in someone else's hands? So I think I started further understanding the project and its necessity to the launch more and more as I attended more meetings, and more engineers were asking how we were going to integrate this sensor, who needed to

There is an “unquestioned assumption” that knowledge inengineering is race- and gender- free [57]. There seems to be no recognition of theethnocentricity of the curriculum and the accepted epistemologies. Although students of colorare “holders and creators of knowledge” [68, p. 106] and contribute to the engineering field, thisknowledge differs from the perceived “bourgeois norms” in engineering.Classical engineering education philosophy situates engineering as a field where the ways ofthinking, doing and being are
