As acommunity, we need to develop innovative pedagogies to support all of these aspects of studentdevelopment and to understand the impacts of such pedagogies.In our work, we are exploring student construction of professional portfolios as one suchpedagogical intervention1-2. In these portfolios, students describe their preparedness forengineering practice and provide evidence of their preparedness by drawing on experiences fromacross their curriculum. These portfolios include an overarching professional statement, artifactsillustrating their engineering skills and abilities (e.g. circuit design) and

undergraduate program with little designexperience in between.In recent years, as conceptions of engineering design thinking have broadened and become morecomplex [3], the capstone-cornerstone curriculum model has been shown to be inadequate [12].Consequently, there are now programs that are taking an integrated design approach wheredesign experiences are incorporated throughout the curriculum [13], [14]. This gives students amore holistic engineering design experience, allows time for design thinking to develop, andexposes students to various design scenarios. For example, the biomedical engineeringdepartment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison requires that students enroll in six semestersof design courses. Students work in teams to solve a real

We conclude by examining whether andhow participant decision-making exhibits ways of thinking that are common across these threedomains.Engineering CommitmentsBecause the lessons observed were a part of an engineering design curriculum, it is not surprisingthat engineering commitments were used the most often in the participants’ work. In particular,three of the common engineering commitments emerged as most relevant and useful for theseparticipants: attention to design requirements and constraints; attention to user needs; anddeveloping a practical solution.

students in Portugal found that while CSR curriculadid affect student views, there was a strong need for more coherence in how social responsibilitywas integrated into the curriculum in order to effectively put social responsibility andsustainability in the center of the college graduate’s radar screen [17].Still other studies have focused on curricular strategies to increase social responsibility and otherglobal citizenship measures. For instance, Tarrant et al. [18] found that shifting the focus of acourse to a critical social issue (sustainability) did not in and of itself guarantee an increase insocial responsibility. However, offering sustainability-focused courses abroad did produce asignificant increase in attention to social responsibility

Of the total sample we analyzed, 327 students wereregistered in one of three engineering degree programs (Systems Engineering, SoftwareEngineering, or Information Science), 12 were registered in a Leadership Development degreeprogram (offered by the Management Division), and 24 had undeclared majors at the time of theKAI administration.

The differences found between the two studies may be attributed to the fact that theparticipants of our study were voluntary attendees of an engineering workshop, whichshowed their interest and initiative in integrating DET into elementary classrooms. Thissuggests that teachers with motivation to learn about engineering are more likely to projectengineering as a profession involving multi-faceted skills.We found significant differences based on teachers’ teaching experience, which were notevident in the Arizona sample. Teachers with more full time teaching and science teachingexperience were more likely to think that DET is important than teachers with limited ormoderate experience
