As pointed out by Kabo and Baillie[10], concepts such as social justice, sustainability, humanitarian practices or ethics can bethreshold concepts to define what a changemaking engineer is. Using this idea, the authorscreated three distinct categories to classify how students defined changemaking engineering. Thefirst group represents students who did not relate engineering and changemaking in ways thatreflect the perspective of the university, or the RED project. These students did not relateengineering with changemaking or by defined every engineer as a changemaker. Nine (32%)students were

A misunderstanding of recovery rates due to a specific drugmay lead to incorrect or false advertising, also leading to legal and ethical issues.It is my aim to provide in this article another example of SP that took place in an educationalsetting. The contents discussed here arose while reevaluating the grading scheme in a statisticscourse. This reevaluation consisted of a widely used measure when grading in the United States:dropping the worst grade from the
