, and diverse minds” (Holmes, 2018, p. 140).Learning how to design solutions to real-world problems is one of the cornerstones of anengineering student’s formation. From the industrial to the everyday settings, engineers play aninfluential role in how the tools, objects, and systems we interact with daily are designed. Yet,during their engineering education, quite often students experience a disconnection between thesocio-technical aspects of engineering design and the more technical courses in their curriculum,which can lead students to favor a view of engineering as a neutral discipline and put lessimportance on the human-centered aspects of design (Loweth et al., 2021; Miska et al., 2022).

They note that, while solar adoption is critical for the transition away fromfossil fuels, it has its own set of issues around the hazardous materials used in the manufacture ofsolar cells (Bell, Daggett, and Labuski, 2020). While the authors acknowledge the wariness ofefforts to challenge any aspect of the long-awaited energy transition, particularly “given the highstakes of the climate crisis” (ibid, 4) they maintain that integrating thinking and action aroundsystemic change alongside the energy transition is necessary to

1 Story-driven Learning in Higher Education: A Systematic Literature Review Abstract Stories have been a pervasive, ubiquitous feature of our lives throughout humanhistory—indeed, storytelling itself is robustly associated with a host of positive benefits,including better mental health (Robertson et al., 2019), increased empathy (Cummings et al.,2022), and a greater sense of belonging (Ritter et al., 2019). As such, storytelling has thepotential to be a powerful tool in a range of settings, including higher education (i.e., story-driven learning). To uncover how story-driven learning has been used in higher education sofar—as well as to discover patterns in pedagogical methods and

We believe this approach honors the efforts of the many researchers who have focusedon countering the deficit narrative (Tolbert Smith, 2022) associated with black men over the last15 years of work and we rely on this research extensively in the present review. However, wewill demonstrate that more research is needed to better understand the range of experiences ofblack men in general, and high-achieving black men in particular, in undergraduate engineeringprograms.PositionalityWe are both

At thesame time, even a massive philanthropic payout may give us pause if our graduates aredeliberately making the most lucrative decision at every turn. We can posit that an engineer whoaffiliates with EA takes seriously a calling to social welfare, and that the pursuit of wealth ismerely a means to benevolent ends, and still worry—for instance, about ethical lapses made inthe sincere belief that “the ends justify the means.”SBF and FTX: The Road to RuinA basic description of the 2022 FTX collapse will suffice for this argument; this is the condensedtreatment provided by The New York Times.

Fajardo et al.

Overall, they found that while most reports exhibited some sociotechnicalthinking, the degree to which these dimensions were consistently and meaningfully
