Creating Effective And Efficient Learning Experiences While Addressing The Needs Of The Poor: An Overview Of Service Learning In Engineering Education

Abstract

Engineering educators across the globe face daunting challenges to adapt their curricula to prepare students to prosper in the global economy.Technology continues to advance, adding content that must be covered without compromising the fundamentals that are so important for engineers.We are asked to add professional skill development including communication, teamwork and leadership to the already packed curricula as well as develop societal and global awareness and create the next generation of entrepreneurs.Reports, such as those from the U.S. National Academy of Engineering 1,2 advocate the integration of a very broad set of skills into the already packed curricula to prepare students for the 21 st century's global economy.
