problems. These non-technical skills allowstudents to understand the social, political, economic, cultural, environmental, and ethical aspectsof their future jobs[1]. The development of leadership is especially important for students whowish to pursue management careers including project management (PM) which is a highlyneeded and promising career path. Few undergraduate students are exposed to PM during theirundergraduate curriculum, and most PM courses are based on literature and reading. TheNational Research Council Board on Engineering education noted that undergraduate curriculumneeds to be reformed in order for undergraduates to get extensive exposure to interdisciplinary,hands-on skills, creative design, and systems thinking[2].

This course was theonly chemical engineering course the students took during the freshman year. While teaching the first semester sophomore Material and Energy Balance course between2009 and 2012, students often remarked that the freshman class was boring and that they still didnot understand what chemical engineers did.

correlating with the students’ finalgrades, the discussion board learning analytics help instructors pinpoint students falling behindin their participation. Learning analytics collect an immense amount of data on student interactions. Despite theopportunity to make data-informed course development decisions, the required parsing toorganize and analyze the learning analytics is a time-intensive process. Therefore, education isneeded on the organization and analysis processes to inform instructors and eventually encourageuse of LMS learning analytics. Additionally, the availability of every students’ interaction dataon every course in an LMS establishes ethical and privacy concerns for students [31]. In highereducation, FERPA protects the

, open-ended problems are definedas potentially ill-defined, ambiguous, potentially lacking critical information, having manypotential solutions, and multiple potential courses of action to reach these solutions. Open-endedproblem solving, i.e., engineering judgment, then, is the ability to navigate the complexity ofopen-ended problems. Paretti et al. [7] defines engineering judgment as students’ ability to weighcosts and benefits to select among competing options based on disciplinary values andstakeholders’ values. Pantazidou and Nair [8] describe this as an “ethic of care” and draw on anexample of a vertical lift bridge design case to illustrate these dynamics. Shaw et al.

(or memorized). Therefore, the approach of maximizing partial credit based onmemorizing a few problems is counter to the goals of an engineering education. Furthermore, itcan be said that the current partial credit grading model rewards students for pretending that theyknow how to solve a problem, even when they don’t. This means our grading model ispromoting behavior that is explicitly unethical for professional engineers, according to theNational Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Code of Ethics for Engineers [7] (paragraphsII.5.a and III.1.a).A second practice affecting learning is the copying of homework solutions from onlineresources.

In contrast, many Indigenous civilizations are more closely aligned with what hasbeen called the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP), which adopts a more holistic, interdependentview of these relationships oriented more toward an ethic of care for the natural world rather thanconquest [5]. These paradigm differences are especially important in the context of engineeringeducation because the DSP positions engineering and the technology it produces as a tool forsubduing nature in the service of humanity [8]. Individuals who hold more closely to the NEPmay thus find themselves further marginalized and alienated within the field because they hold afundamentally different

In someways this echoes the language of the Mann report but acknowledges that as Technology hasincreasingly become integrated into all infrastructures that a systemic, rather than industry-focused, perspective is necessary. The systemic focus is noteworthy since systems need to beunderstood either through functional decomposition—the basis of outcome development—orholistically as they become more complex.As has been pointed out by others [12] engineering education adapts to the times; it must bydefinition do so since the role of engineers has

Such leadership must be prioritized at the institutional level. “…the importance of fundraising for today’s higher education administrators, we suspect that commitment to an ethical culture may take a back seat to other commitments and skills. That’s why it becomes so important to institutionalize integrity as much as possible into multiple cultural systems. Also, because most senior administrators are extraordinarily busy, we are convinced that development and/or maintenance of a culture of academic integrity must be a significant portion of some
