Players initially sort the cards individually then they find a partner andrepeat the game. In the version discussed in this paper only one deck of cards is used as teammembers are added. The sort is repeated when a third player is added. This increase in groupsize by one player at one time continues until it is felt that the desired lesson has been learned,time runs out in the particular session that the game is being played in, or it becomes Page 12.444.6impractical to

The visibility and positive reception of the National Academyof Engineering’s The Engineer of 2020: Visions of a New Century1 attests to the increasingimportance of this commitment. The purpose of this article is to examine the extent to whichsuch well-roundedness is reflected in the actual work that engages graduates of U.S. engineeringprograms.In undertaking this study, the authors expected to find evidence of graduates applying theirproblem-solving skills to non-technical arenas such as policy work, public service, or legislation.This hypothesis was introduced by The Engineer of 2020, and serves as an axiom within theASEE community.

post 60’s educational world, it is in vogue to pass over the fundamentals andlaunch students at a very early age into the holistic writing process. The idea is the fundamentalsof how to write a sentence will be absorbed by little insights and little on-demand discussionswith teachers about nouns and verbs and at some point in time the light will go on and everythingwill come together,” Henderson explains. “Well, sadly that rarely happens. It is particularlybothersome to the engineering mind, because the engineering mind knows that process just isn’tgoing to work. At the very get go. So the engineering mind is desperately wanting somebody tosit down and share the fundamentals first. The other thing the engineering mind craves iswhenever
