In academic settings, simulations have been used in many formsover the years (Troka & Nedelman, 1975). In the sciences, experiential learning simulations takethe form of experiments that allow students to test hypotheses as they engage in the scientificprocess of inquiry (Bell & Smetana, 2008). Political science professors use simulations to engagestudents in ethical dilemmas (Wheeler, 2006). Although they often take the form of a face to faceor computer generated experiences, a simulation presents students with a situation that representsa circumstance faced in real life (Ellington, Gordan & Fowlie, 1998).

Preparing theFuture Professoriate, taught by Dean DePauw, provides students with context and fundamentalknowledge of modern issues they may face as a future faculty member in the United States orabroad. The semester begins with discussions about the structure of the university and facultyresponsibilities within the university. The remainder of the semester gives an overview of highereducation, including topics such as shifting student demographics, diversity and inclusion, theimpact of technology in the classroom, ethical standards in research, and paradigm shifts ineducation and university policy.

engineering work. It is found that experiences promoting a service ethic andbroadening oneself outside of engineering are important predictors of interest in impact-driven work. What is lessexpected is the significant importance of innovation interests and innovation self-efficacy for engineering studentsinterested in creating societal impact. Deeper exploration reveals that certain academic experiences and proximalinfluences have a direct and significant effect on a student’s interest in impact-driven work, and this relationship isstrengthened by the partial mediation of innovation self-efficacy. As such, this study suggests that the developmentof innovation self-efficacy is important in cultivating engineering students who are interested in impact

We are in the process of updating and refiningthe rubric’s content and structure to reflect current practices and ensure its applicability acrossdisciplines. A systematic literature review of sustainability and sustainable design in engineeringcurricula and practice confirmed most criteria in the rubric but also indicated several gaps. Somegaps were expected because the original rubric was directed towards civil and environmentalengineering projects, but most of the themes were confirmed in other disciplines. Examples ofpotential gap areas included ethics, affordability and equity, and innovation. While these areasare reflected in the SD Rubric 1.0, the

Of the themes with high consensus, the most stable were Multiple Solutions, Creative, Learns from Failure, and Requires Communication, and Unique Way of Knowing(with 10% or greater stability). The themes, Uses Modeling, Criteria and Constraints, and Collaborative were less stable but had stability between 15% and 11%.

Chandra’s work involves designing and researching contexts for learning within higher education. In her research, Chandra draws from the perspectives of anthropology, cultural

In addition to the topics presented in the text,Engineering Ethics and Material Selection were introduced as separate lectures.The reverse engineering project involved dissecting a product that the students chose and thenput it back together. 160 students in the class were broken into groups of four students and eachgroup chose a specific product to be dissected and analyzed in detail. In this process the studentsgot a broader perspective on engineering decisions. For the product dissected the responsiblegroup investigated the design, answering questions about functionality, aesthetics, manufacturingand other engineering decisions. In doing so, the students explored the global, societal

I was asked to update the testing manual for the new product line, to be released in early 2018, and generated over 5,000 test cases during the three month summer internship.

The co-Director of the RET Site at PU visited the other campus (TU) for a mid-program review anddiscussion with teacher participants and other sustainable electronics researchers.

In the context of ABET, Shuman et al. 11 broadly characterize these professional skills toinclude: teamwork, ethics, communication, societal impact understanding, life-long learning,understanding current issues. Several of these professional skills were identified as important orkey differentiators for potential employees 12. For the purpose of this work, the key professionalskills include communications, teamwork, and project management.This work examines how a capstone course that was recently (starting in fall 2014) expanded to atwo-semester capstone experience (as opposed to a single semester) was viewed by projectsponsors

Finally, the last category suggested by the developers in the framework isEffectiveness. As Legitimacy focused on the fairness and ethical aspect of the project in regardsto societal needs, Effectiveness of transdisciplinary will determine how the research will make apositive change in its context.Unlike Rubrics 1 and 2, this paper only presents a framework and a prototype rubric. The valuein the proposed Transdisciplinary Quality framework is that it can be used to determine whetheror not the selected project is meeting its research goal.

efforts. This support of student internships is critical, as thenational trend is for increased student participation in internship or cooperative educationprograms. “In 1980, about one out of every 36 college students completed an internship prior tograduation. This increased to three out of four by the year 2000.” (Hurst 58)Prior to fall 2014, most divisional internship and co-op records were paper based. Work isunderway to streamline recordkeeping through the use of electronic databases. This has alloweddepartments to better evaluate student and employer success.

accountability for managing independent and group projects in a professional environment. I have seen these experiences pay off outside of CEDC, and I already know that the leadership skills I have acquired will continue to make a positive impact on my future. Leadership in CEDC has been a huge contributor to my development as a leader. It forced me to take ownership of a project and be a driving force within it. This sense of ownership is key to taking on more responsibilities.DiscussionUnlike typical students in the CEDC program, CEDC interns not only have an objectively higherlevel of responsibility for the ethical considerations and successful execution of projects but alsodevelop the aptitude to lead a team of
