. Awareness of thesocial and historical context of science and society motivates internal change as well as anexternal commitment to social justice. There are multiple ways to facilitate emerging engineersto thinking about diversity, categories, social science, and social justice. We chose to do so withrace because of the overwhelming evidence that race is socially constructed9, 10, 11, yet thecontinued belief by many in popular culture and some scientific disciplines that it is largelybiological.GAMES Lesson Plans: An Integration of ScienceIn this paper, we present two examples of social and engineering education integration atGAMES. These examples were carried out in the 2013 (n=29) and 2014 (n=32) offerings of thesummer campThe social context and

The proposal provides an opportunity for instructor feedback on the team-specific project plan. Often resubmissions are requested for clarity or alternative experimental plan. The instructor must approve the proposal before purchases can be made.2. Project Workspace.

Instead they aim to foster a stronger engagement and interest from studentsbefore facing complicated concepts in control systems. Presenting a less aggressive introduction,rather than going straight to formulas and long enunciates, may make students more comfortablewith Control Systems, promoting more self-motivation that can positively affect students’academic achievements.Results of a questionnaire at Florida Atlantic University have shown that students, who wereexposed to the new way of introducing Control Systems concepts, support a more nontraditionalapproach to teaching.
