The fifth and final section concludesthe paper and outlines future work.The Measurement FrameworkIn terms of education, we define Sustainability as the ability to continuously improve withoutreducing the capacity to endure. In other words, the SoTE is Improvability and Endurance. TheSoTE is achieved at two levels, namely, the system and approach levels. At the system level, theeducational institution should be able to improve without reducing its ability to endure. Theinstitution should adopt an

In response to a call for proposals from the Leonhard Centerfor the Enhancement of Engineering Education (the College’s teaching and learning center), theengineering design program proposed the creation of a set of multi-disciplinary modules about theprofessional skill set and contemporary issues in engineering, focusing on topics such ascommunication, innovation, and sustainability. The modules would be implemented in a first-yeardesign course, which is a required course for most first-year students intending to major inengineering.Because of the large size of each year’s incoming class and the desire to keep class sizes fairlysmall, the number of sections offered each semester is large.

It may turn outthat these two objectives are very much related.In the mid-1990s, writer John Brockman asserted the ascendency and predominance of scienceby publishing provocative interviews with several big-name scientists in his book, The ThirdCulture: Beyond the Scientific Revolution. These scientists had been successful at popularizingtheir work by writing in a manner that captured the attention and imagination of the public.2 In asense, they represented a new integration of science and the humanities, since they were able toharness the power of compelling literature to promote scientific

The affected area was conspicuous because the yarn would stand up and lash violently in a stalled area. These yarn stall detectors are still used today even on new space shuttle de- signs. d.)

Given teamwork’simportance in engineering education and practice, teamwork is essential for engineering studentsto learn. As we have explored the teamwork literature, we have identified that teamwork, as thediscipline has defined it, lacks specificity, thus leaving open the criterion for assessment. Thisproject emerged as an opportunity to both “measure” and precisely define teamwork skills andattitudes. In the summer/fall of 2023, we developed a pilot survey of engineering teaming attitudesand skills and administered it at two mid-Atlantic institutions.

Also, ten qualities of an effective leader arediscussed and students complete a self-evaluation of their own leadership qualities based on“The Art of Leadership” [20]. Individually, students rate each of the ten leadership qualities(vision, ability, enthusiasm, stability, concern for others, self-confidence, persistence, vitality,charisma, and integrity) on a scale of one to ten (low to high) based on their success in thatparticular area.
