At-risk participants are identified as those elementary students who are eligible for reduced or freelunch at their school. This segment of the population is often not exposed to post-secondaryeducation, including technology education and its benefits.

, 2018 A Review of Electronic Engineering Logbooks Throughout the Electrical Engineering Curriculum Abstract Successful engineers must be well versed in communication skills, particularly with respect to written documentation in engineering logbooks. Such logs provide technical records that facilitate the day-to-day work of individual engineers, as well as enable continuity when projects are transferred to other engineers. Due to changes in technology and patent law, as well as the promise of simple archiving and sharing of technical work, many practicing engineers have moved away from traditional bound paper engineering notebooks and
experts and leaders that can ensure successful continuation of their mission.6As a result, the Unites States Standards Strategy established standards education as a highpriority in the U.S.Efforts in that direction started in 2000, when ABET, recognizing the benefits of includingtechnical standards into engineering education, included a reference to standards and codesin General Criteria, Criterion 5, requiring that all major design experience shouldincorporate appropriate engineering standards. Moreover, to provide additionalopportunities for education on standards, many SDOs have established educationcommittees with the goal to assist engineering and technology programs. Standardseducation is accepted as highly beneficial to engineering
