tableeditor). The students were asked to take an agile approach to the design and development oftheir tools. A design document and a test plan were developed initially and evolved as theimplementation code was created. While teams were allowed to use any agile approach theywished, most teams used a variant of the scrum framework to manage this project. This was nottoo surprising since the scrum framework was the first agile approach they experienced indetail. The teams did not have a scrum master assigned to assist them. The teaching assistantsplayed the role of customers or product owners. Table 4: Course Modules Modules Description SE

framework. To start, weexamined the similarities and differences in the ways these other scholars represented humancompetencies. We noticed that both scholars included the “thriving” component at the top oftheir diagram despite describing flourishing and self-actualization as ongoing processes and notend goals. Furthermore, both scholars represent their main competencies in distinct categoriesfrom each other. Many positive psychology researchers group together the competencies that arehighly correlated to reduce redundancies in their frameworks. Finally, both scholars includedcompetencies that reflect those determined in engineering thriving, including achievement (suchas academic performance or mastering skills), interpersonal (such as
well as in engineering-relatedsubjects [7]. Aleta also stated that the engineering design experience was found to be the mainindicator of academic achievements in both math and related engineering subjects [7]. Self-efficacy is defined as one’s belief in one’s ability to achieve a specific task or succeedin a particular area by achieving the intended results [8]. For students, this may dictate theiracademic execution from a cognitive aspect, as their personal efficacy can positively influencetheir outlook on performance and potential to succeed. Bandura illustrates the importance ofacademic self-efficacy by asserting that “students’ beliefs in their efficacy to regulate their ownlearning and to master academic activities determine their

It must aimto ensure that the producers of technology can be mastered and managed to promote socialand economic well-being” (Item 55, p 69).“An important principle which is enshrined in this report is the idea that the universalcharacter of technology necessarily constitutes a unifying mechanism and levelling forcebetween the social classes within the education system” (Item 55, p 70)Technology is seen tobe something different to science, and a separate programme is required for its development. To this end the French Ministry of Education decided to introduce a curriculum onTechnologie in which the principal teaching method would be the project (Item 54). In orderto

For example, one respondent noted “passion to learn moreoutside of the classroom” and another noted “getting something worthwhile.” These studentsappear to possess a desire to learn about the material.Higher achieving students also noted that concerns around the efficiency of their studying alsomotivated change. Unlike lower achieving students, who simply stated grades as their entireresponse, higher achieving students indicated they “notice what works” and sought to be moreefficient with their time. Responses which included a theme of efficiency often indicated a themeof a set goal, such as “produce quality work” coupled with a concern about the time it took toachieve that goal. The issue of time and
frequently does not bode well for its thoughtful inclusion in the curricula. This is furtheredby the next survey response correlation [Q4 and Q14, p = 0.030, Corr -0.452].While faculty did not generally believe that writing was an effective tool for engineering education,they did show a relationship for their engagement in professional writing and their belief that it isimportant for students to write well. The faculty who often engage in professional writing see animportance in correctly educating engineering undergraduates how to perform it, but do not viewwriting itself as a powerful educational tool in engineering education. This places writing in aninteresting location, where it is important for engineers to learn how to do (and master), but

engineering with science [2]. Conflating engineering with science inhigh school has real consequences for engineering student retention in college. Our own workshows that many freshmen who declare engineering majors enter college not really knowingwhat practicing engineers do despite the students’ professed interested in the field [3,4]. Oncethey do become informed about the duties and daily activities of engineering professionals,previously misinformed students leave engineering majors [5].One key factor (often overlooked by K-12 teachers) that differentiates engineering from otherSTEM disciplines is emphasis on open-ended experimental problem solving [6].
