A low overall injury rate doesnot necessarily correlate to the degree of lab safety since some injuries will be unrelated to labwork. Actual injury rate is likely higher than the data shows because it only includes reportedinjuries above a certain threshold. The BLS tracks causes of days away of work by industry, butit groups education with health services, which is the industry with the highest injury rate.Therefore, no analysis was done on whether the types of injuries at universities could reflect labaccidents.Generally, city governments are responsible for building and fire safety.

From those, the spread in scores forthe quantitative part is large. On the other hand, all students who have a high score in thequantitative part (i.e., greater than 80%) also have a high score in the conceptual part.

In addition to identifying these strategies, the authors describelearning progressions to highlight the range of design behaviors that develop from beginningdesigners to informed designers.The design strategies in the Informed Design Teaching and Learning Matrix are intended to beused

To date, traditional teachingschemes not only fostered the culture of individual performance but also prioritized rationalthinking, and avoided incorporation of the artistic-narrative modality in engineering courses in anattempt to the rigor of the search for empirical truth. The use of cognitive tools for thedevelopment of the abilities of creative thinking must be complemented with the application ofmetacognitive tools in order to also influence the development of specific dispositions oftemperament, that is, the exercise of reflection skills in engineering students [13].
