Thearchitecture of a curriculum – encompassing the breadth and depth of content, the sequencingof subjects, and the interplay of various pedagogical approaches – directly influences the learningenvironment. This influence is often reflected in key educational outcomes such as student engage-ment, comprehension, retention, and graduation rates. The complexity of a curriculum

IntroductionDeveloping ways to effectively teach early computer science (CS) majors how to program hasbeen an important topic of interest for some time. When addressing student learning in earlyprogramming courses, there have been a variety of elements researched and observed, notableones being: 1) the type of paradigms that are ideal for introducing students to programming [1],[2], [3], [4], 2) the

Engineers have long positionedthemselves as “problem-solvers” uniquely situated to use technical knowledge to proposesolutions to complex problems. Recent work has identified the need to better integratenontechnical knowledge into engineering education as a way of reflecting the complex social andpolitical landscapes that structure engineering practice (Reddy, Kleine, Parsons, & Nieusma2023). Here we explore using a framework for “engineering as conflict” as a compelling practiceof sociotechnical integration at the undergraduate level. Here, conflict refers to the practice orprocess of disagreement, difference of opinion, or tensions.From the perspective of
