The idea, however, thatany team will function at a high level (i.e., productively and constructively) without purposefuland well-informed effort is not true.

After implementing and assessing a health and safetytraining program at the Université de Sherbrooke, the following was noted: “Whether for thedesign of new machines or for the modification of existing machines, the engineer has to makedecisions that will have a major impact on the health and safety of workers. It is thus essentialthat the engineer be able to adequately assess risks” 9. For these reasons, providing safety trainingfor students will not only reduce the likelihood of accidents, but will give students an opportunityto learn about the importance of safety considerations in the design process

These include Akinnaso[30],Besnier[31, 32], Hornberger[33], McLaughlin[34, 35], and Reder and Green[36].Perhaps the most important aspect of a social perspective on literacy is that it requires one tolook not only at the set of skills associated with literacy, but more importantly the enactment ofthe literary event, that is, the larger social and cultural events and relationships that result from it.In terms of engineering education, this means, for example, being cognizant of who is writing ajournal paper, who has funded the research, and what the purpose of the research is.

the centrality of design in undergraduateengineering programs [1], teaching design courses and embedding design problems in corecourses carries many practical issues for instructors. Researchers suggest that expert designersframe problems more broadly than novices, but authentic context may make a design problemtoo difficult. Further, authentic problems are not instructional designs; they may contain manydetails unrelated to course learning outcomes, and students may focus on aspects of a designproblem that are familiar to them, missing key opportunities to learn both content and designpractices. While highly technical problems seem promising as a way to focus students’ attentionon the content, decontextualized problems provide little

As a result, the 4-page report for evaluation is made different from the final report inthe sense that, the former is accomplished strictly using one approach, whereas the latter mightbe impacted by both approaches. By doing so, we intended to reach a subtle balance betweenteaching two approaches separately for the comparison purpose and combining them together inthe interest of student’s learning.3.3 Design evaluation:A total of 36 graduate
