In this way Britain’s pre-eminence in

and societal challenges and opportunities of the future. With appropriate thought and consideration, and using new strategic planning tools, we should reconstitute engineering curricula and related educational programs to prepare today’s engineers for the careers of the future, with due recognition of the rapid pace of change in the world and its intrinsic lack of predictability. Our aspiration is to shape the engineering curriculum for 2020 so as to be responsive to the disparate learning styles of different student populations and attractive for all those seeking a full and well-rounded

]. Humans’ beliefs are at the core oftheir agency which includes self-regulated behaviors that allow an individual to take thenecessary actions to yield desired outcomes [14]. These agentic behaviors include intentionalityand forethought which help guide the plans for action, as well as self-reactiveness and self-reflection which allows for one to persevere through challenges and self-examine their progress[13]. Acknowledging that an individual’s sense of agency leads them to actively regulate theirown experiences emphasizes the significance of exploring teacher agency and pedagogicalbeliefs.Below is the overarching research question that informed the methodology, and is situated in thetheoretical underpinnings of social cognitive theory [12], [13

In parallelto this history of community development, there is a history of large state-planned internationaldevelopment where engineers have played significant roles and have come to engagecommunities in ways that have been detrimental to the latter, particularly by viewing them asdeficient and lacking, always in need of development and modernization from the Global North[16]–[18]. More recently, even after the emergence of the idea of sustainable development in theearly 1990s and its subsequent set of goals (Millennium Development Goals 2000-15;Sustainable Development Goals 2015-30) and the growth of the Engineering to Help movement[19], there has not been substantial changes in the way scientists and engineers view and

In the firstintervention, the instructor did not anticipate this being an issue and had the students producetheir castings during the last week of class. Unfortunately, a large majority of the castings failedand were not completed, and because there was not sufficient time left for a second castingattempt, the students finished the course with a high level of frustration. Additionally, theinstructor had to assess these projects differently than was planned, due to the unsatisfactorycasting results. Therefore, the course schedule was adjusted in Fall

That five-week period was thenfollowed by four two-week lab sessions that were conducted in four-to-five person teams.
