This required the course to conduct some surveys and analyze the datain a meaningful way, and this activity had to be a reasonable percentage of the course content.Fortunately the four-credit course structure permits this to happen and still retain sufficient classtime and activities to explore project management, the functions of an engineering team within thecontext of a business operation, and aspects of entrepreneurship.

As such, it isbeing developed by faculty within and outside GE.1st Year: User-Centered DesignOne major challenge that engineers universally face is the disconnect of their work from itsusers. In this first year class, we stress that designs cannot be based simply on the designers’ ownunderstanding, and we emphasize the need to develop empathy for users, who may have differentassumptions and experiences. In an effort to better integrate social justice into engineering, thiscourse aims to help students understand their own privileges, which we achieve throughreflection journals, activities such as a trip to a local museum with an exhibit on race, andclassroom discussion.

in this article.Dr. Marie Stettler Kleine’s research on humanitarian and integrated engineering programsinspired her reflection on how different forms of contextualization and the vocabulary used todescribe them signal different ways to best teach engineers. Her graduate training in science andtechnology studies and human-centered design prepared her to see that these forms ofcontextualization are much more nuanced than using particular language, but this varyinglanguage fundamentally changes the engineering pedagogy in practice. She continues tointerrogate why and how engineering educators learn from other disciplines to explicitlyprioritize contextualization.For Dr. Kari Zacharias, this project has been an opportunity to reflect on the

For example, a common in-class reflective activity is the “exam wrapper”: shortly after an exam, students articulate whatthey did that helped them do well on the exam and what they could do differently to improvetheir performance on a future exam.Recently, reflection

What-if questions at each stage of the design process should prompt studentsto reflect. This would be appropriate as part of a cornerstone or capstone design project. Theproposed questions could be tailored to specific student projects.In your design project journal, address the following questions: 1.

In this logic, students spend the majority of their time learning a longsequence of engineering “fundamentals” before they are deemed competent to engage in creativedesign problem solving in their final-year capstone projects.3 This approach is understood as“exclusionary” not in the sense of being elitist but in the more general sense of seeking to keepout that which does not belong, including those persons (or those facets of persons) not in linewith the dominant decontextualized, narrowly technical-analytic way of problem solving withinengineering.

That which seemed missing occurred at theoutset and at the conclusion of the process including: (1) a beginning with an open mind freefrom pre-conceived notion, biases and prejudices; (2) an explicit challenge to the designer toconsider the plight of the Earth; and (3) an exploration of the values and purposes associatedboth with the design and the designer.

The discussion place of the apprentice engineer in modern society and how he or shenegotiates that sphere, and in the greater context how engineering as a whole can be grounded interms of design and soiological principles. Engineering design research currently(41,42) concludesthat engineering expertise and thus engineering mastery is not something that can be explicitlynoted, but something that one knows when one sees it. While there are books, classes, and“capstone” projects in engineering, a real engineer cannot be strictly defined by any textbookdefinition. The
