innovate continuously to succeed in the global marketplace. This paperdiscusses the value and importance of teaching and learning human-centered design thinking forengineering graduates. Achieving significant and continuous innovation through design requireslooking beyond current systems design practices. Engineering educators must adapt new ways ofthinking, teaching, and learning engineering design from other disciplines. This paper discussesthe modes of engineering thinking and how they differ from those of contemporary innovatorsand examines how a human-centered approach to design can replace approaches that considerhuman values and ethics as constraints to the design. The authors will discuss current efforts toinsert the teaching and learning

Related styles of role-playingmay have students not only role-play different potential company positions, but also be scoredusing game-style grading to advance to new positions 1, 12.Role-playing has also been utilized to let students assume the roles of expert witnesses beinginterviewed in a mock trial with the intent of having the students encounter ethical dilemmas andpractice responding as professionals 5, 6. By placing students into a situation which forces themto ‘make the call’ in their role, the instructor is more likely to engage the students as they learnengineering ethics than

Additionally, conceptgeneration has replaced decision making in the top five topics addressed in the course. Thepercentage of programs that taught concept generation in 2005 is about the same as it is today,but in 2005 concept generation was not among the top 10 topics.

This approach is in place at the UnitedStates Military Academy (USMA) where the three-semester capstone model begins with a coursethat does not include an official senior capstone project.23 Instead, the course emphasizes the“soft” sciences, including “design process, methodology, project management, communications,economics and ethics.”23 Students are introduced to the engineering design process andmethodology, and they apply this knowledge to their junior projects before being immersed

The video data of early team meetings were coded forconstraints that arose as part of the conversation in ideation/ brainstorming sessions. Weconstructed an overall typology of constraints after the initial analysis of what teams, in general,identified as constraints when thinking of final design solutions.

Students in Engineering Design through Engineers Without Borders ProjectsAbstractIt is important that first year engineering students learn that the engineering design processinvolves more than mathematics and physics. To accomplish this, students choose designprojects from a variety of disciplines, developed with Engineers Without Borders (Canada) andsituated in either a developing country or a remote area of Canada. All projects required, not onlya technical solution, but also consideration of ethics, health and safety, economics, and impact onthe community. Among the design projects were a rain-water harvesting system and ceramicwater filter for villagers in Cambodia and a press for extracting oil and producing biodiesel
