(Downey et al., 2006 as cited in [11].Those with cultural humility recognize that there are multiple technical approaches and thatwhile they may have a preference for one way of defining a problem over another as well as oneway of justifying a solution over another, they have the flexibility of mind and command oftechnical knowledge to be able to adjust and adapt to multiple ways of defining as well asresolving problems [11]. Cultural humility also means recognizing when we do not have thetechnical knowledge to accomplish a task and having the wherewithal to acknowledge thisdeficit and seek out this knowledge either through bringing in outside expertise or additionaleducation, as called for in the Code of Ethics of a Professional Engineer [11

IntroductionMotivating engineering students to practice problem-solving has always been on the minds ofengineering educators across the globe. Active Learning [1], Problem-Based Learning [2], andthe Flipped Classroom [3], among other methodologies, are educational techniques designed toimprove learning retention through the continuous improvement of problem-solving skills. In thefollowing, the process of conducting a problem-solving activity for engineering students istermed assessment, whereas the process of evaluating the performance of engineering studentson an

. Again, ASEE was the full sponsor for the booth.4. Highlighting Scholarly ActivityIn 2017, the Diversity Committee introduced traditional publish-to-present paper sessions at theASEE Annual Conference. This was in part a response to the papers nominated for the BestDiversity Paper award. The Diversity Committee maintains a position of supporting a broaddefinition of diversity and recognized a need to provide a space for papers on diversity-relatedtopics that were not the historical focus of other divisions within the organization. That year,twenty-two papers were accepted for presentation at the annual conference; this was above andbeyond the papers submitted to the Minorities in Engineering Division (MIND), the Women inEngineering Division

The Icarus program was structured with this theoretical framework in mind. The expectation was thatthe students that participate in Icarus, positively engage with their engineering program, and with their peers, butnot to the expense of their academic coursework. Icarus emphasized the value of the alignment between theresearch project offered, and the coursework students were enrolled in. Furthermore, we expected intrinsicmotivation in the students that participated in the voluntary research projects. In addition, we hypothesizedstudents were going to develop short

We present a case study in which three faculty members fromdiverse disciplines, including engineering, computer science, and political science, guided a teamof students from the Bachelors in ISAT (Integrated Science and Technology) program at JamesMadison University for a two-year capstone experience spanning the students’ junior and senioryears. The paper describes the overarching pedagogy and goals of the two-year ISAT capstoneexperience and describes how the ISAT “Holistic Problem Solving Habits of Mind” are integralto our teaching and mentoring approach in applied projects.
