DeBoer, Jennifer; Radhakrishnan, Dhinesh; Freitas, Claudio – Advances in Engineering Education, 2022
Displaced learners, uprooted because of conflict, poverty, or other major traumas, are often shut out of opportunities to learn engineering. At the same time, fragile contexts demand engineers' expertise, but experts and their engineered solutions are often called in from outside the community. In this article, we examine engineering learning as a…
