instructions on how to work in a team, it is important to helpthem learn more about themselves and explore their strengths and capabilities. To help them acquire thisinsight, students are given instructions to complete two tests: the Jung Personality Test and the Team RoleTest. Jung’s psychological typology was first published in 1923 [48], and since then several tests havebeen developed and used by human resources, career coaching, organizational development [49]. It hasalso been used in higher education as a basis for learning styles and also to shed the light on individualdifferences [48]. Jung’s typology is best known for the concepts of extroversion and introversion [50],and sensation -intuition and thinking-feeling. The test result is

I think a lot of students are interested in it and I think it’s an important skill but it’s not something that I had when I was a student and it’s not something that I really gained (laughs) during my career in academia.It is important to note there are stand-alone courses in entrepreneurial thinking for engineeringstudents at the site.

Prior work [4] has shown that some practicing engineers continue toneglect variability later in their career—the results from this study suggest that features ofengineering pedagogy may contribute to this behavior. However, future work with direct study ofpracticing engineers is necessary to fully understand their views on the relevance of variability toengineering practice.All three student participants described concrete ways in which variability seemed relevant (ornot) to engineering practice (RQ 1), and the specific experiences that influenced their views (RQ2). Prior evidence suggests that variability has not been considered relevant to certain quantitiesin engineering

Engineers will face business, personal, and professional challenges in their livesand careers, and after defining and understanding the problems, and for whom they matter,engineers need the integrity to practice honestly and fairly.Just as an ethics course does not aim to tell someone how to act in all situations, a socialfoundations of engineering course does not aim to

, subsequentcourses, the fundamentals of engineering exam, or a future career. Interleaved practice has beendemonstrated to improve student learning and retention of technical skills, though the literatureon this practice is smaller than others [5].Interleaved practice involves practicing already-learned material along with newly learnedmaterial. When all homework or quiz problems are bunched together, students expect that everyproblem must be a variant of the skill they are practicing. However, when homework or quizproblems draw from mixed material, students practice thinking through which solution methodsto use and how to apply what they know [5], [11].

a group in their academic career. As such, there are elements of the project, particularly during the analysis and writing of the memo, that require more hand-holding on the part of the instructor. Teaming conflicts occasionally occur, but surprisingly, group dynamic issues have been far less prominent for this project than in the other courses that this instructor has taught. To gain some perspective on team dynamics, this instructor has a prompt at the end of the final exam asking the student how they would divide up a $1, 000 bonus for the work done on the design project amongst the members of the group. In this instructor’s experience, very few students indicate a significant deviation from an

]. Decisions under climate change are deeply uncertain, and DMDU approaches havefrequently been applied for long term planning for urban infrastructure [2]–[4]. Decision makersmust plan and take some form of adaptive action (including no action or deferred action) toaddress the impacts of climate change. These actions tend to be informed by complex modelinganalyses, and it is often difficult to communicate the modeling results as well as the advantagesand disadvantages of different actions to stakeholders and decision makers. It is equally if notmore difficult to communicate these concepts to civil and environmental engineering studentswho will be confronted with similar decisions in their future careers.
