lessons we learned throughout the process aswell. First was the use of a kick-off event. We learned quickly that it was easier to get studentsto attend a kick-off event where they could learn about the competition, find teammates, and signup, than it was to ask students to directly sign up. We also recognize that it is important to havea solid timeline before the competition begins. That timeline should reflect both the dates thecompetitors will need to submit their deliverables, and also the dates of the workshops and otherevents. In planning this competition our original schedule, given out at the kickoff, set theworkshops for a specific week, and the actual date was given out a week or so before hand. Thislead to confusion and scheduling

turn can be used to identify asolution. Engineering educators tend to treat “society” as a distinctly separate silo fromengineering itself. This is not to say that society isn’t discussed within the engineeringclassroom, but it is often framed as a linear progression -- something is engineered, then it hasan impact on society. This is reflected in the 2016-2017 ABET outcome H: “the broad educationnecessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic,environmental, and societal context.” The very language of this statement indicates societalcontext is seen as relevant, but distinctly separate, from engineering solutions.Similarly, students’ lived experiences are typically contained in a separate silo.

This frustration with perceived disorganization was alsoreflected in the survey comments from older students, including that of the 20-year old studentquoted above. They were more likely to find the active learning sessions, especially those whichdid not include problem-solving exercises, as “busy work” and unnecessary for their success inthe class and may reflect differences in motivational factors and preferred learning environmentsnoted by some researchers [32], [33].

This requires anenhanced curriculum with a focus on student teamwork, a greater consideration of social context,improved communication with diverse constituents, and reflection on an ethical understanding oftheir decisions and solutions. Effective faculty members need to mirror these values and skills intheir instruction and mentoring. Efforts have begun to reimagine the “engineering canon” whichrequires a shift from positioning engineering as a purely technical endeavor to framing it associo-technical. We are developing a new General Engineering program that incorporates thisperspective [30].

In an effort to generate abaseline for how we can operationalize intuition in the context of engineering education, thepurpose of our current research was to synthesize characterizations and portrayals of intuitivereasoning. We focused on literature from the field of management because intuition isconsidered in the context of complex, strategic decisions, which are reflective of the designdecisions central to engineering.
