paper.IntroductionThe President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology [1] stresses the importance ofengineering in the United States. Over the past few decades, the need to promote and improveengineering education in the US has fueled several science education reforms. One of the latestsignificant reforms is the introduction of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). TheNGSS launched in 2013, and 88% of the states are now using the NGSS or other standardsmodeled on the NGSS. These states account for approximately 71% of the US students [2]. TheNGSS requires students to learn engineering within their K-12 science curriculum [3]. Likewise,K-12 teachers are expected to teach engineering within K-12 science curricula [4]. However,most teacher

accessible or culturally relevant to Hispanic families(Baum & Flores, 2011). In Hispanic culture, the importance of family – in Spanish “familia” – is critical.Lack of instrumental support from parents during the transition to college can leave these studentsfeeling isolated with no place to turn for help.Consequently, SHPE has developed Equipando Padres (Equipping Parents), a program with the goal toprovide parents of first-gen and low socioeconomic status (SES) Hispanic students with the knowledgeand tools to better support their children earning engineering degrees. This program, created incollaboration with Raytheon Technologies and with supplemental support from the United EngineeringFoundation, aims to fill the parent programming gap by

A focus on art as something communallyexperienced in public places and legitimately connected to engineering coursework serves tohighlight its importance as an intrinsic, exciting part of engineering design. Integration of art inengineering education fosters critical and creative thinking, allowing students to conceivealternative
