Practices Related to Sociotechnical Thinking in the Teaching of Undergraduate Engineering StudentsAs a global society, we face significant challenges, including environmental degradation andclimate change, increasing economic inequity, rapid urbanization and population growth, theexclusion of individuals and groups from different forms of social engagement, and concernswith privacy and security. Given the omnipresent nature of technology and its influence on ourlives, engineers must consider the ethical, environmental and sociological impacts of their work,and some engineering programs are considering new pedagogical methods and broaderframeworks to engage students in macroethics, sociotechnical thinking and engineering for

curriculum increases student awareness of frameworks and broader applications to practice AbstractThe intersection of human health and designing novel technologies that improvemedical outcomes requires personal and professional introspection on the ethicaldilemmas that clinicians and engineers will face in their careers. Given the diversefield of biomedical engineering, from imaging modalities to implantable devices toemergent biotechnologies, no singular approach to ethics training will prepare ourstudents to assess their professional obligation to the ethical, social, and legalimplications of their future work. Many engineering programs provide studentswith early modules in engineering ethics during

Mechanical Engineering Department Polytechnique MontrealBackgroundFeedback, as a component of grading, plays an essential role in the success and motivation oflearners, but traditional written feedback presents many challenges related to constraints of time,space and understanding by learners [1, 2]. Feedback is also rarely consulted according to manyteachers and only the grade matters for the student [1-3]. Studies indicate that the use ofInformation and Communication Technologies (ICT) would make it possible to respond to certainlimitations of traditional feedback. For example, ICT would make it possible to give morefeedback, facilitate learner ownership [1] and promote their academic performance [4]. AmongICTs

Thus, there is still an urgent need to study this technology andimprove it.Microreactors are an emerging technology in chemical reaction engineering [7]. The high surfacearea to volume ratio is an important characteristic of the microreactor design. It reduces the massand heat transfer resistances resulting in superior mass and heat transfer rates, compared to largerreactors [8]. Microreactors easily and precisely control the flow and temperature conditionswhich results in a high potential for process intensification for several engineering applications.Microreactor technology is being explored for
