ofstudents’ undergraduate engineering programs. To accomplish this, many technical skills mustbe strengthened and reinforced—such as Computer Aided Design, Finite Element Analysis andother simulation tools, experimental testing, and design validation—as well as durable skills suchas teamwork, communication, and project management [20].With these challenges in mind, our previous study examined the development and assessment ofa two-semester junior-year Machine Design course sequence and, in particular, a year-long teamdesign project spanning both courses [14]. Briefly, the scope of the design project is to build aMonoblock Pill Bottle Filling Station, shown in Figure 1. The purpose of this machine is to takeempty pill bottles loaded in bulk, fill

. Due toCOVID and the heavier workload it entails, this option was only taken by a very smallpercentage of the class. In general, we found that if an extended learning opportunity such as thehonors section required a lot of time, it was to be expected that a small number of students wouldchoose this path, due to the already rigorous engineering curriculum. The second optional pathwas an extra credit learning module and quiz on multitasking, which all students in the classwere encouraged to complete. When creating this optional module, we were mindful of allstudents in the course, especially those who are already struggling, by choosing a gradingscheme carefully and emphasizing that the module was an extended learning opportunity, not
shares knowledge, teaches, and relates whatwe have learned via metaphors and narratives. Even our own identity in the world can be thoughtof as a narrative in our minds, and to imagine our future selves we must construct a futurenarrative. It is this power of story that we believe needs to be fundamentally embraced bydiversity efforts in engineering and computing to make a significant change in our demographicchallenges. And yet, the power of story is left, mostly, unexplored in engineering as it does not fitwith our STEM-focused fields that sit strongly in the camps of quantitative evidence, testing, anddesign.We will argue in this paper, that there is convincing evidence that leveraging the power of storymight be the “holy grail” for changing

Thus, we usedthe characteristics of engagement were comprised by Cunningham and Kelly’s (2017) epistemicpractices of engineering in this study because they are reflective of the nature of engineering,specific to the habits of mind reflected in the Framework for P12 Engineering Learning, butgeneral enough to be more likely to arise in the interviews. The three groups of stakeholderswhose views were examined in this study are not engineers and it was unlikely that theirreflections on STEM engagement would be specific enough for the Framework (2020) to be themost meaningful descriptors of their views. For example, it was unlikely that the community
ramifications of theworkshop with regard to the new paradigm of “technology education” in K-12 setting.However, the participants readily realized how “instructional technology”, “computers”,“computer graphics”, “information technology”, “science” and “mathematics” content,can be integrated within a “technology education” lesson over and above providing aplatform for discussion on social and ethical implications of advanced technologies, andthe engineering design process. It is this integrative holistic nature of “technologyeducation” that the new standards aspire to promote which has the potential tosignificantly transform and improve K-12 STEM education and unleash the creativity ofyoung minds throughout the nation.
