Before the spring 2020offering of the course, instructors established partnerships with local and state officials todevelop a list of local community projects. Project stakeholders were invited to present theirproject(s) to the students. Students were required to work in groups of four. Projects wereassigned based on interest, with priority given to ensuring teams were interdisciplinary.Collaboration was also established with the humanities department by having a group of theirstudents work on policy and governance related aspects of one or more of the projects.

Third, for large research groups, it should be possible for the principalinvestigator(s) to present our approach via research group meetings. Students could then beprovided with the appropriate templates and coached to use the CT framework in bothpresentations as well as in the drafting of papers. We believe research advisors and their studentswould benefit from having a consistent intellectual framework as well as a consistent vocabularyto use in developing critical reading and writing skills.

implemented with larger group sizes. While teaching a course with a group-basedstructure is often more work for the instructor, it provides a great benefit to the students andreduces operational and support cost. Engineering students need to gain as much experienceworking on teams as possible, so they are prepared for the teaming environment that isprevalent in industry. For this reason, educators should try to incorporate a group-basedcourse design that includes ample individual assignments whenever it is possible. It wasfound that a 50/50 model, where half of the grade came from group work and half came fromindividual work functioned well in ECE3873.References1. E. Sancristobal, M. Castro, S. Martin, M.

literacy which presuppose CADeducation, so that designers can pick the best tool for the design task(s) [11]. Dankwort et al.suggest there should be less emphasis on the education of the tool itself, and more focus on howthe tool integrates with the entire product development lifecycle [17]. Through a cursory readingof the design courses at the institutions mentioned above, there is no explicit requirement forthese courses to ensure deliverables of conceptual designs, let alone, conceptual designs whichare created in CAD [13] [14] [15] [16]. For introductory courses, Brown’s shows empirically thatstudents who enroll in the introductory CAD classes can find them unengaging, which can act asan impediment to further seeking to practice CAD in future
the Necessary Infrastructure: When RELLIS was announced in 2016 much of the campus infrastructure dated back to the 1940’s. This infrastructure was insufficient to support the envisioned campus and there were no buildings in which the classes could be offered. Blinn College District began construction of its first classroom and office building on RELLIS beginning in 2016. That building opened in fall 2018 and was the location of all classes offered through the Academic Alliance that academic year. A&M System began construction of its first building in spring 2018 (it opened in fall 2019) and its second building in fall 2019 (scheduled to open in January 2021). Lastly, construction of a three

Were enough people interested in the project to get a team of four?We asked them to consider moving to their second or third choice if their first choice had morethan four people. During this reflection period, we (the faculty facilitators) highlighted thoseprojects that had fewer than four interested people and suggested students consider moving theirsticky notes to those projects. We also highlighted projects for which there appeared to beinadequate skills. We reiterated that each project should have a team of four people, then weasked them to make a final decision regarding their choice of project. After this short time ofreflection, we started

This historical perspective allows engineering educators to see that the aspirationsexpressed in 2004’s The Engineer of 2020: Visions of Engineering in the New Century are morea tradition than a novelty [3]. What is relatively new is the emergence of the field of Science,Technology, and Society (STS) and, in particular, attempts to integrate STS into engineeringcurricula. STS provides conceptual frameworks that enable students to see engineering problemsand solutions in sociotechnical terms.

. Shrinking undergraduate credit hours in engineering programs at most public institutions that simply cannot teach this ever-expanding body of knowledge in a four-year degree program. Commoditization of the engineering profession – the buying and selling of engineering services based on price, not qualifications, along with outsourcing of engineering tasks to project team members from disparate regions with no “local knowledge” of the problem(s) they are working to address. Advances in software and modeling that seemingly apply engineering standards and codes to derive solutions that sidestep engineering judgement and infer to some the PE is obsolete or unnecessary.
