Deviation 21.223 Figure 3 – Partial View of a Sample Team ALP Competition Results Table.To motivate students to continuously improve their problem-solving skills, while ensuring a highlevel of transparency, ethics, and accountability, an online competition is organized among classteams for the purpose of obtaining the highest Active Learning Performance (ALP) grades. Inthis regard, while the (student) ALP grade is essentially the average grade obtained by thestudent on the quizzes conducted in class augmented by the bonus points that he/she obtained onthe OTR, as mentioned previously, the Team ALP is defined as the sum of the ALP grades of allteam members.

The social responsibility ofengineers is to carefully evaluate the full range of broader impacts of their designs on the health,safety, and welfare of the public environment. Half a century after the creed originated, ourworld is facing irreparable damage and destruction that has direct connections to andrepercussions from the consequences of engineering. More specifically, there was and continuesto be a lack of comprehensive engineering assessment of the societal, ethical, health and safety,environmental, political, and sustainability issues and a lack of systems thinking [9] that can

Experience definitely is a majorfactor. A proper start for instructors wanting to try active learning for the first time(including cooperative learning) is to step into it gradually, and to seek continuous feedbackas to how the course is going and how the students feel about it.

(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
