making under control. Petroski’s response was that predicting the strength andbehavior of engineering structures is not always so simple and well-defined an undertaking as itseems, which he later admitted didn’t seem to change his neighbor’s mind about anything.Petroski then observes that “Engineering has as its principle object not the given world but theworld that engineers themselves create.” suggesting the need to extend the understanding oftechnological literacy / philosophy of engineering to a much broader community.So, what should we do; why should what we do be taken seriously; how can a uniformtechnological literacy / philosophy of engineering message be broadcast; how can we identifyour real audience and influence policy; how does this

hisprincipal engineers found it difficult to work together; Sutter’s description of how he managedthese problems should help prepare students for the workplace. In terms of the courses taught bythe author, the primary uses for these passages will be in the first year introductory course (nextoffering in Fall, 2019) and in the upper level engineering problem solving course (next offeringscheduled for Summer, 2019). They would be quite useful with a course for non-majors, and atthe other extreme some may be used in a graduate systems engineering course at a later date.The two samples presented here and the other stories mentioned as having been or being underdevelopment have been planned with specific courses in mind. However, most if not all wouldbe
