This raises interesting issuesaround students’ feelings about the importance of these topics, and indicates that these questionsmay reflect on the affective domain (e.g. value) to an equal or greater extent than the cognitivedomain (e.g. knowledge, reflected in the response to Q2).IntroductionEngineering has significant and important impacts on society, being critical to providing basicnecessities (e.g. access to clean water) as well as contemporary conveniences and entertainment.While largely positive changes have resulted from the use of technology, engineers should alsocarefully weigh the potential for negative outcomes.

All students enrolled in the class participated in theSIMS surveys. However, survey results were only included in the study for those students whoconsented.Twenty-two of the 29 students enrolled chose to participate in the study, providing a total of 260SIMS survey responses. Using the Self-Determination Index (SDI) as a measure of overallmotivation, motivational differences among students appear to be greater than the differencesamong activities. The study did not identify any one mode of teaching that was more effective inmotivating students than others. The students’ motivation appears to be more

Influenced by Schön’s [6] view of design as a reflective conversation with materials,we use the word he commonly used—framing [7], though we are influenced by work usingothers terms.In framing design problems, designers make many decisions that are consequential to theproblem. They decide what to include and exclude from the problem, bounding it [8]. To do so,they gather information to fill in gaps in their understanding [9]. Experienced, skillful designersengage in framing and reframing deliberately and repeatedly, throughout design process [3, 10-13]. They pay attention to the customer/stakeholder needs

In the third stage they are asked what information they want to evaluate the system and how to use that information.Finally they are shown an optimized solution and must decide whether or not they will accept the proposed changes based on allthe data they have

Allstudent pairs had to write lab reports providing the working designs, the problems theyencountered, and the solutions they devised. In addition, each student had to include two self-reflection paragraphs (part of closing the experiential learning feedback loop) about what theylearned and what they liked.

As part of discussion groups, they were asked to prioritize thechallenges and identify those that most interested them. Most students were previously unawareof these challenges. In reflecting what was learned in this module, one student stated: I learned the responsibility of engineering. With all the rewarding aspects of engineering comes responsibility. The grand challenges emphasized the responsibility engineers have to society. If engineers have the tools to create, they should use them to create good. This is important to acknowledge so that engineering can remain ethical and just.Students were then

We arguethat language in text used by students is descriptive of how they create meaning of differentsituations, and that those situations are reflective of the larger dominant discourse created bysociocultural practices in engineering. Preliminary results indicate that engineering Discoursesmay influence the conceptualizations of status, power, and solidarity in relationship to theirvalues and vocations.IntroductionThe concept of vocation is sometimes ignored by engineering students given that its connotationis traditionally related to religious

Moreover, it was hypothesized thatengagement in the SDPs was closely associated with the steep growth in students’epistemological development during the last year of college [1]. Students’epistemological thinking refers to their reflections on “the limits of knowledge”, “thecertainty of knowledge”, and the “criteria for knowing” [11]. Expert engineers tendedto demonstrate more sophisticated manner of epistemological thinking than novices[12]. Nevertheless, few studies have specifically explored engineering students’epistemological thinking and the associated factors in the context of SDPs.
