This “tradeoff amongst the relevantvalues” [75, p.12] within the value system of a person, is what classifies which category(named Higher Order Value) of the human value system this person resides in, and thereforehow this person’s motivation and decision-making processes are driven.All values and Higher Order Values of the Schwartz Personal value system map ontoSchwartz et al.’s Circular motivational continuum [76, p.7], shown in Figure 3, for clearerrepresentative indications of the Higher Order Values and their underlying basic values

. Taran and Carter,44 Mee and Teune,45and Robillard46 indicate that trust is central to team collaboration in most professions. Taran andCarter state, “Becoming worthy of trust and learning to trust are active processes that require theparticipants to communicate and interact.” (p.99)44 In Morell de Ramirez et al.’s study, in orderto build trust among team members, “students are given a seminar on organizational behaviorand participate in a number of hands-on activities to expose the newly formed teams to situationsthat accelerate team cohesiveness”. (p.434)43 Brown, Flick and Williamson suggest that buildingtrust is one of the important components of social capital that should be taught in engineering.47They summarized that “development of

In view of these challenges, Ambrose and her colleagues recommend several strategiesdesigned “to increase the value that students place on the goals and activities” of a course [13].Among them are connecting course materials to “issues that are important to students” and to“real-world event[s]” and the needs of “an actual client in the community” [13]. Common tothese strategies is an emphasis on the real (or at least the simulation of reality). Reality conveysrelevance, which in turn persuades students that a course is worth the investment of time andresources required to facilitate deep learning. It would

The data are analyzed via hypothesis coding that was constructedusing the seven Dimensions of Learning Power from Deakin Crick et al.’s (2004) EffectiveLifelong Learning Inventory (ELLI)6, and the emergent codes of Becoming an engineer andAppreciation for lifelong learning.

finished their projects (see figures 2a and 2b). Participants were asked to reflect back tobefore the project began to rate their confidence on skills on a Likert scale, and then considertheir confidence at the conclusion of the project. In the future, a survey will be given to studentsat the first build session, and the same survey upon completion to measure competencies.A statistical analysis of the survey results was performed. For each category considered, the datawas first tested for normality. For normally distributed data sets, a paired t-test was used. For thedata that was not normal, the Wilcoxon R-S test was used to test for significance. A p-value lessthan 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Figure 2a: First part of survey

, and biology, in the commonpractice of creating microorganism by the billions even in undergraduate labs, have also movedfrom the domain of observing and explaining, into the creative domain of ‘making’. Likewise,engineers in academia as well as corporate and government labs carry out primary research,discovering the principles underlying complex artificial systems17. The line has been blurred.Nonetheless, for the typical engineer at a company and the typical scientist at a research lab,Billington’s distinction that “[s]cience is discovery[;] engineering is design” restated as“[s]cientists study the natural [while] engineers create the artificial”18 still stands in the majorityof cases.In creating the artificial, engineers design products that
the sorting task. Each sorter was presented with all of the final ideason a set of numbered cards with one idea per card. They then sorted the cards into groups ofsimilar ideas and created a descriptive name for each group. Finally, they recorded their groupname and the ideas (numbered cards) were placed in that group. Each idea was only sorted intoone group. Once the ideas were sorted by the stakeholders, this raw data was structured intomatrices of 0’s and 1’s using the open source programing language R [31]. This step generatedindividual and total matrices, which served as an input for the representation step. The sortingstep was an onsite activity and was completed in two hours, with each stakeholder sorting theideas individually. Prior
