idea of video production relative to writing(Howe, 2009). Video has the potential to aid engineering students in conceptual change, inparticular, because: a) Engineering students are overwhelmingly “visual” learners (Felder and Brent, 2005) b) Incoming college students are typically technologically savvy and have a high expectation for use of Web 2.0 technologies (Duffy, 2008) c) Many thermodynamics concepts are abstract, but amenable to explanation through visual metaphor. Student-produced video has been shown to be an effective approach to facilitate studentlearning in several non-engineering fields (Powlik and Fortenberry, 2001; Herder et al., 2002;Schuck and Kearney, 2004; Kearney and Schuck, 2006; Schuck and Kearney

This way of thinking can unintentionally excludestudents who might feel more welcomed by the ‘human side’ of engineering, in whichengineering and technology are contextualized within a sociotechnical framework (Gaunkar etal., 2020; Lord et al., 2018; Roberts & Lord, 2020). Previous studies have shown that women aremore motivated toward service and helping through their careers than men (Schreuders et al.,2009; Eccles, 2007).

Furthermore, most instruction on sustainability, as reported in the literature, appears tofocus on teaching the engineering student to be an engineer who practices sustainabledevelopment rather than a consumer who has a role in sustainable practice. In part, thisemphasis on the engineer's role in sustainability is a result of the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET)'s mandate that engineering undergraduates complete theirdegrees having achieved student outcome (c): “...an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability
