And finally, we choose to believe that oncemastered – despite all our first-hand experience and research findings to the contrary – thatindividual skill will be completely serviceable4.Most scholars of language and language use and especially those who study language learningand teaching would repudiate such an approach and would summarily reject all the assumptionslisted above8, 9. Yet the communications curricula that embody these assumptions not onlypersist, they are the norm. The obvious question is “why?” The short and admittedly over-simplified answer is that once assumptions are embodied in an

in two-semester sequences with a corresponding laboratory (e.g., thermal-fluids, mechanics andmaterials, etc.). The teaching of design has been integrated to the curriculum by devoting acertain fraction of the coursework or labs to open-ended design problems. Likewise, formalintroduction to the engineering design method is made at the sophomore level in two courses:Introduction to Mechanical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering Tools. These coursesintroduce the design cycle, and expose students to design concepts by using problems withinreach at the sophomore level (e.g., statics, simple material selections, etc.). The tools courseintroduces the students to the machine shop and to the software packages they need to master inorder to

expectation of experiencing resultssimilar to those reported should be aware of the practical limitations of educational studies. Ingeneral., educational studies tell us what worked, on average, for the populations examined andlearning theories suggest why this might be so. However, claiming that faculty who adopt aspecific method will experience similar results in their own classrooms is simply not possible.Even if faculty master the new instructional method, they can not control all other variables thataffect learning. There are conditions where a teacher may have to “go with the odds.” The moreextensive the results supporting a new method, and the more the instructor’s students resemblethe reported test population, the better the odds are that the

The assessment was done on one of the components of Computational thinkingproposed as logical reasoning ability.Cruz Castro, Magana, Douglas, & Boutin [34], used formative assessment, conformed by multipleartifacts such as exams and homework graded at the learning objective level, to evaluate theprogression of students in CT practices. In this study, the researchers used the framework proposedby Weintrop [5], arguing its closeness to engineering needs. They concluded that some practiceshave a high impact on student performance, such as troubleshooting and debugging, which needto be mastered to acquire more complex skills.Mendoza Diaz, Meier, Trytten, & Yoon [35], developed their

In addition to frustrations related to pacing, some students shared examples of activitiesthat they found exceedingly difficult and were not able to master. Several 6th grade studentsshared negative attitudes toward the 3-D figure drawing exercises in the 6th grade curriculum,referring to their belief that they “can’t draw”. For example, one 6th grade student noted, “I’m nota person that likes to draw, so when it was ‘you’ve got to do this specific step’, it

ideas of existence (that something physically existsin the world) and essence (the underlying rationale for a thing’s state of being) have becomedecoupled. This decoupling, i.e. disconnect of artefacts from the natural world, has led tomeans being separated from ends leading to a crisis for civilization (MacIntyre, 2009). Itmay be that our disconnect from the essence of existence triggers a need for control that isexpressed through mastering technology. Feenberg framed technology dialectically on twoaxes: (1) whether technology reflects or stands separate from human values, and (2) whethertechnological developments can be managed by humans or are ultimately incontrollable(Feenberg, 2006; Mitcham, 1994).

skill of the ringer does not show reduction in thevariability of the scores however (Table 3 rows 3 and 4). This may be due to what Vygotskysuggests is the “zone of proximal development” (ZPD) within which a student is capable ofcomprehending new material. For instance, a student may be struggling to comprehend loops,where the ringer has long mastered that skill and forgotten what it was like to struggle withloops. If a student’s and the ringer’s ZPD do not overlap enough, then the student will bemissing out on the benefits of working with an MKO as the ringer cannot relate. On the flipside, if the team’s ZPDs overlap too much, the ringer can only stretch the team so far. Vygotskymight suggest that a team must be formed so that the ZPD of each

Audre Lorde,for instance, emphasized eroticism as an internal source of power for women, by which they canovercome the fear resulting from systematic suppression. The erotic, Lorde argues, providesenergy for liberatory change and movement.51Solidarity is another crucial constituent of liberation. The process of liberation cannot happen inisolation. There is a need to move from the notion of individualism to one that enjoins theoppressed to labor together, fostering new and resilient relationships in the liberation struggle.47Dussel criticizes European philosophy in relation to the notion of “master-servant domination”and emphasized the importance of person-person relationships in the process of

community, we should consider the responsible development of thesetechnologies.” [1] Such a vision for engineering is not new. In Engineers for Change: CompetingVisions of Technology in 1960s America, Matthew Wisnioski presents the struggle of engineersand the profession to define their purpose and identity [2]. Charles Vest, former NAE President,wrote: “The social and intellectual unrest of the 1960s forced engineers, long the masters ofhow, to confront why. The struggle to establish a socio-technical framework for engineering,university curricula to imbue it, and a popular understanding of it remain largely unmet today.”Wisnioski notes that “calls to make engineers more humane had a familiar ring” and elaborateson numerous efforts by ASEE, NAE
