substantial qualification in engineering education pedagogy.Our assertion is that the USA should not risk being left behind, and thus it is imperative that awider cohort of early career engineering educators should acquire substantial pedagogical andeducational training during their initial year(s) of teaching. “Pedagogy” being taken to meaninstructional techniques, and “educational” to encompass the curriculum and the philosophiesthat underpin pedagogies. Four propositions support this view: 1. Assuming that teaching is a professional activity, it is incumbent on a professional to be aware of the knowledge that constructs the activity and act therein taking into account the evidence available. 2. Without such knowledge it is difficult
showing where they may — intentionally or unintentionally — “game” theprocess. This demonstrates that an applied ethics approach is a systematic analytic process andnot — as one student suggested “loosey-goosey feel-good b____t”.Requiring students to present their analysis to their peers in class and receive coaching andfeedback right then and there allows the instructors to help students build confidence in their newknowledge and skills at assembling stable ethical scaffolds, and to steer their projectsaccordingly. From their analysis and in-class feedback, students finalize their ethical assessmentand how it has affected their projects in their final project report to the faculty member(s)teaching the course and their clients.Students are also
ahead to design a solar system for educational access.Educational access will likely require design considerations and expenses beyond that of aconventional commercial solar installation. Educational access may also require additionaltechnical experts or sub-contractors to work on the design and installation of the system.Engagement of the school’s facility managers and faculty members early in the process isessential. Dialogue between these parties and the solar developer can maximize the educationalbenefits of a solar installation.Potential Educational AudiencesWhen designing solar PV systems for educational use, the first step is to consider who theintended educational audience(s) might be.

should be responsible for teaching this code of ethics to new engineers? How does this code of ethics apply to those engineers who cannot or choose not to become licensed as a Professional Engineer (PE)? (note: PE licensure is not available for all disciplines) What happens when engineers fail to follow these guidelines?After discussing the applicable Code(s) of Ethics, participants shift back to case studydiscussions. “Tweaking the Data” asks participants to consider how the power differentialbetween a supervisor/employee or mentor/mentee can impact the gathering and reporting of data.In this scenario, an inexperienced engineer is tasked with collecting data that ends up surprisingand puzzling the project manager
at the University.Many students measured this lack of course opportunities based on Advanced Placement (AP)options at their home high school. Of the seven participants, students reported between one andseven AP courses at their high schools, which they felt was less than the other students in theircourse of study. Even at the high end of this range, Student A mentioned: “So I guess, also partof that is the classes that we can take, like, the opportunities, because, you know, we only hadmaybe six or seven AP classes.... But then I talk to people that took, you know, 10, 12, you know,even more.” Student D noted that his school only had one teacher qualified to teach AP courses:“We don't have a lot of AP courses and [Teacher]’s, the only one

) • Choose the appropriate type of graph for the data set. • No Excel titles on graphs. That’s what the caption is for. • Axes usually should not run through the center of a graph. • Each axis needs a label including units • Include legend only when graphing more than one set of data. • Format tables so data can be easily compared. Don’t have tables spread across two or more pages. • Put units in the header of each table column. • Units should be consistent and abbreviated correctly. o mPa and MPa are different o second is s not sec, hour is h not hr, etc. (lists of unit abbrev can be found online)Statistics • For each data point, report the number of measurements made or samples tested (n), even
in the classroom to more stable levels. Future research should investigate these effectsin a broader range of classrooms within engineering and across related STEM disciplines.Evaluating engagement at a fine-grained level (by TA and by course) provides an opportunity toreduce confounding effects and illuminate distinct effects of faculty vs. TA support in largecourses.AcknowledgmentsThe author would like to gratefully acknowledge the National Science Foundation for theirsupport of this work (DUE grant number 1504618).
