This book gives insight into the ongoing work of the forum on
Philosophy, Engineering and Technology (fPET), which brings
together philosophers and engineers from all over the world to
discuss philosophical issues of engineering across disciplinary
boundaries. Drawing on presentations and conversations at the fPET
2020 online conference hosted by the Universidad Tecnica Federico
Santa Maria in Chile, the chapters establish connections and
describe discoveries that have so far been neglected in the
discussions held within the young discipline of philosophy of
engineering. This volume appeals to students and researchers in the
field, through twenty-four proposals brought forward by leading
scholars and emerging voices. Pertinent themes covered are: the
broader engagement of engineers in problem-solving beyond the scope
of their own profession the exploration of new goals for technology
development and the implementation of strategies to reach these
goals the need for philosophical content and unique pedagogical
approaches to engineering education, digital transformations,
artificial intelligence and the ethics of online collaboration in
social media critical revisions of fundamental terminology and
theoretical modelling of key concepts in engineering design,
ethics, innovation and the anthropology of technology
Rapidly changing global demographics demand visionary,
collaborative, and culturally appropriate leadership practices on
university campuses. In the face of widening gaps in academic
achievement and socio-economic roadblocks, Culturally Responsive
Leadership in Higher Education offers a new vision of leadership,
where diversity is transformed from challenge into opportunity.
This book offers a range of perspectives from culturally, racially,
linguistically, ability, and gender-diverse contributors who
demonstrate that effective leadership springs from those who
engage, link theory to practice, and promote access, equity, and
educational improvement for underserved students. Each chapter
explores a critical higher educational leadership issue with
feasible strategies and solutions. In this exciting book, theory
and research-based chapters unpack culturally responsive
leadership, revealing how higher education leaders in the U.S. and
international contexts can improve their practice for social equity
and educational change.
