It may be that students require more than a single 40-minute lecture to becomemotivated to learn about a subject; however, the fact that 45% of the students in this study didreport being more motivated to learn about nanotechnology suggests that even a short lecture canhave a meaningful effect.AcknowledgmentThe support by NSF through Grant No. EEC- 1446097 is greatly acknowledged.References[1] Dyehouse, M.

. A key outcome of this research is a Framework of Professional Responsibilities toconsider how future research can examine student cognitions, behaviors, and dispositionsabout professional and ethical responsibilities. Components of the proposed framework havebeen previously described in the engineering education literature. For example, Gilbuena etal. (2015) described project management and timeline development as developed within acapstone project. However, the students’ discussion of professional and ethicalresponsibilities aligned most closely with Besterfield-Sacre et al.’s list of professional traits.Specifically, we identified self-management, task management, and team management as thekey components of students’ experience of
