The rest of their work lays afoundation for acceptance or rejection of the current definitions and assessments of emotionalintelligence. In their conclusions, two distinct groups emerge: the first group’s interpretation ofemotional intelligence is strictly parallel to cognitive intelligence and the second group definedEI an all-encompassing value.These distinctions lead to several different definitions of EI. Roberts, in a summary of emotionalintelligence [7], splits EI into two models: Integrative-Model Approaches and Mixed-ModelApproaches to emotional intelligence. The Integrative-Model assessment focuses on specificabilities

Aspects such as sensations of safety, emotionalconnections, changing businesses and community paths made their way into students’ spatialdata structures in a fully embedded way, issues which otherwise might not be integrated into theengineering curriculum. Outcomes suggest that engaged in this active effort of spatialproduction, students uncovered multiple layers of understanding from their site-based focus ondetailed observation. Like site-sketching, spatial mapping seems to have enabled an intensity oflooking; a process which allows a deep connection to site while engaged in a visually focused 4task.

to develop communications assignments for topics thatalso help prepare future engineers for a global environment, like cultural awareness and culturalsensitivity. We find ourselves in a position to focus on these topics, not by adding morecommunication assignments to an already-crowded curriculum, but by varying the focus of thecommunication assignments. Students will not treat global issues as mere topics ofcommunication assignments but will have to consider cultural differences in order to completethe communications. In future C-I capstone courses, cultural awareness will not only be aproduct of communication assignments; rather, issues confronting globalism, like culturalawareness, will be a step in the communication processes that is

Second, the establishment of a commonlanguage is not a static process or the development of a thesaurus; common language is acontinued and dynamic process of negotiation, in which conversations between participants leadto knowledge emergence and shared understandings.

We would not be engineering education researchers if everythingsimply added up, if we didn’t experience dissonance. We would be wandering souls, if we didnot understand; understand how the world works and how things come to be. By sitting in tense,dichotomous, polarizing situations we gain greater understanding of the different parts ofourselves that do not always agree. By pulling ourselves apart we learn about ourselves.

and integration13with an emphasis on conceptual understanding over a period of time14. The researchers were alsoconcerned with the way in which concept mapping has been used to evaluate interdisciplinaryknowledge integration and the manner in which instruction can play into that integration15. Ourmethod draws heavily from Shallcross’s16 methodology that targets semi-structured mappingactivities by single students in a short time frame. This affords an efficient deployment of conceptmapping within a course setting without being disruptive. Due to the exploratory nature of theproject and diversity of approaches taken within each section, the authors avoid assessing theconcept maps to an exemplar developed by an expert or a singular complexity

program was not sufficient [19]. This reflects differences in the extent that the formalcurriculum integrates ethical and societal issues (e.g., some programs require a full course onengineering ethics, others have an ethics-across-the curriculum approach, others only include asingle small ethics integration in capstone design) [20, 21]. In addition, some educators believethat ethics education should be grounded in theory versus others taking a more ‘practical’approach [20]. There are also important differences among engineering disciplines. For example,the extent that macroethical issues such as sustainability are taught varies by discipline andvaries within the professional codes across different disciplines [22].Given the interdisciplinary
