instructional method was an exploratory studio journey of discovery with a graphicalemphasis. The student outcomes included spatial organizations (floor plans), visualizations(elevations), and basic detailing (sections). One observation was that BIM provided a logicalapplication to an otherwise unscientific design journey. The studio assessments werequalitative. This created some apprehension as the grading appeared subjective. The assessmentwas based on a qualitative relative grading system [27, pp. 434-435]. The course contributed todemonstrating the ABET performance criteria of “ability to design a system . . . within realisticconstraints;” (2) “ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessaryfor engineering practice

take other team members’ dissertation research intoaccount when planning their own dissertation research, even if it was on a different part of thesystem. For example, students whose focus was on the media aspects of the system needed toexplain to students from engineering why one kind of sensing mechanism would be preferable,more interesting or innovative than another kind, vis-à-vis the media fields in which theirresearch was situated. Inclusion artifacts were therefore used to suggest a certain design plan orfeature because the kind of sensing mechanism chosen would affect the work of everyone on theteam. In other words, students from the media fields could not make a choice of sensingmechanism without convincing the other team members to

Faculty members took on increased responsibilities and becamemore integrated into the engineering faculty as a whole, alternately embracing and resisting the“service department” designation [5]. Faculty members were enthusiastic about working toimprove the practice of engineering and computer science students, but the unit’s lack ofindividual degree programs constrained research and mentorship opportunities. A 2008 facultyreport and five-year plan for the unit’s development identified these frustrations and emphasizedthat existing solely in a service role would be untenable for tenure-stream faculty [6]. In 2011, the General Studies Unit was renamed the Centre for Engineering in Society(CES). While CES

To this end, we hope readers willfinish this paper with a working understanding of what SenseMaker is, what is involved indesigning and conducting a SenseMaker study, what the results look like, how this approach hasbeen used in the past, and questions we are currently reflecting on as we plan our next round ofdata collection.Recognizing the limitations of a conference paper, where appropriate we direct readers toadditional sources that describe

Weintroduce a strategic framework for how engineering institutions, faculty, and students must startconsidering their options, experimenting with alternatives, and start planning now.

We plan to take advantage of this discovery next time,moving from a formal poster presentation to a managed debate.DiscussionOur use of theatre through role-playing brings together humanistic and engineering learning inthe context of a complex problem within the rapidly expanding, heterogeneous, nineteenth-century context of Worcester, Massachusetts: a city whose heterogeneity in many waysrepresents the challenges that contemporary engineers face. In some cases, students are naturallydrawn to the role-playing activities: some of them have performed in theatrical productions orhave immersed themselves in role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons.

theappendix to this paper.) As the attached article demonstrates, cities around the country are considering whether equipping police officers with body cameras can restore trust between police and citizens and discourage police misconduct. Imagine that you are the lead engineer working with the city council of a mid-sized American city to develop a plan for integrating a network of body cameras into the city’s information technology networks. The city leadership has not purchased the body cameras yet, but they are clearly excited about the potential of body cameras to resolve disputes and restore trust between citizens and local police. The city leaders are looking to you to advise them because

Dr. Giovannelli credits this to that firstunthreatening text on day one: to Augustine’s observation of a silent reader.The Course Reader (Giovannelli, 2016) also provided a list of cultural dimensions (from GeerteHofstede, 2005), i.e., of over-arching cultural characteristics. These include, for example, how aculture deals with time or space; how a culture regards honor, power, or identity; whether themembers of a culture operate as a collective or as individuals; and to what extent the culturepractices long-term or short-term planning.

to analyzethe downstream effects of technologies on unknown or silent users (Casper & Clarke 1998).These efforts can also be understood as a way of organizing others’ work (Suchman 2000),particularly when the users come from inside one’s own organization.In this paper we describe and analyze how early career engineers learn about users and theirneeds in the engineering workplace. We draw special attention to how users are conceptualizedduring product development and how notions of how users might employ technologies can shapedesigners’ plans. These data are part of a larger project that examines the workplace learning ofearly career engineers, and so several of our examples highlight the orientations early careerengineers hold toward

Theauthor intends to draw on Foucault’s interpretation of Bentham’s panopticon. These are not one-to-one analogies as the instructor does not offer a “performance” in the lecture hall nor is theobserving instructor invisible to the students in the computer lab as she would be in apanopticon. The analogies hold at the level of the underlying assumptions while designing thesespaces vis-à-vis what type of interactions in the space are anticipated and planned for. (a) (b
