, and suggests the additional challenges that could arise for those doctorallearners in interdisciplinary contexts.Journal clubs, list mediated examinations, and proseminars are three pedagogical approaches thathave been discussed in writings on doctoral education. Golde identifies the first two of theseapproaches, journal clubs and readings lists, as signature pedagogies by which differentdisciplines address goals of helping doctoral students learn to work with the literature [8].Journal clubs, which are common in medicine and biological sciences, are somewhat formalsettings in which individuals come together to discuss pre-chosen scholarly articles. Because theprocess of reading a single article is repeatedly made visible in the journal club

studied ethical decision-making in engineering students. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Impact of Flexible Classroom Spaces on Instructor Pedagogy and Student BehaviorIntroductionThe use of active learning techniques, such as asking students to respond to multiple-choice“clicker” questions or to work together with their peers to solve a problem in class, has beenshown to benefit students by improving their retention of information, conceptual understanding,self-esteem, and attitudes about their program of study [1], [2], [3].

collaborating philosophers to the table to do it. But rather thanphilosophers as collaborators, philosophers’ place of necessity is in its historically traditionalrole of trespassers or gadflies to the practical and professional processes of others.Of course, we might intuit that only the most stringent purists would hold onto one or another ofthese hypothetical polar positions. It is more likely that most engineers and most philosophersconsider their roles within engineering ethics as collaborative, integrative, and constructive:space for working together on complex epistemic and ethical problems. For example, a 2007blog post on business strategy argues for the importance of collaborative expertise betweenphilosophers and engineers. The authors write

peer mentors help mitigate the growing pains of entering the research environment foryoung students. Unfortunately, graduate student peers are resources that many teaching-focusedcolleges and universities like our institution, York College of PA, do not have. In this case,strong mentorship from – and a good relationship with – faculty advisors becomes increasinglyimportant [12], [13], [14]. Despite challenges faced by small institutions, Lilja [15] notes thatundergraduate students have a lot of potential to do research work. York College of PA offersonly bachelor’s degrees in engineering and focuses on teaching courses with smaller class sizes.We desire research activity, but we also wrestle with these limitations discussed above.York College

Participants work with various instructional materials to gain foundationalknowledge and are required to engage in peer discussions to help explore pedagogical ideas andstrategies. Each week, participants submit assignments that are meant to serve as working draftsfor later refinement in the course design process.

to calibrate and compare their own progression through their degreeprograms to the progress of their peers. As implied by curricular flowcharts (another importantartifact), the default progression for engineering students begins in the first semester with Calc1, proceeding onwards through the math sequence and ideally completing the required coursesby the fourth semester of their undergraduate careers. Consequently, students classified as notready for Calc 1 who start at Pre-Calc in their first semesters are already “behind” their peersfrom the start of their college experiences while students who place into Calc 2 or 3 their firstsemesters are “ahead.” Feeling behind rather than ahead can be potentially detrimental to studentattitudes and

Students with disabilities must oftenspend more energy than their peers to negotiate physical, cultural, and bureaucratic structures ofthe university to effectively access the curricular and co-curricular resources necessary tosucceed.Our work addresses this vital need by heeding the call of the Research in the Formation ofEngineers (RFE) program to explore the “development of identity as an engineer and itsintersection with other identities” [9] by using grounded theory to understand how students withdisabilities develop (or fail to develop) professional identities.

It is hard for even the best educational innovations totransfer to a colleague’s classroom16 It is less likely for an innovation to be adopted by adifferent university. As a result, many engineering educators are re-inventing the wheel andexcellent innovations are underutilized.If educators had unlimited temporal resources this would not be an issue. But manytransformative educational practices require teams of people to develop and test. Others arethe result of a personal passion and decades of building, coding, writing, and/or tweaking.Educators do not have the luxury of dedicating years of effort to a project that affects
