It maybring an impression to ethics instructors that the government has “endorsed” the instruction ofWestern professionalism, and this type of professionalism is acceptable to include in engineeringcurricula – although it is worth noting that there is not yet an accepted national ethics curricula inChina. Further, most Western engineering ethics textbooks that have been translated into Chinesereflect a strong professional tradition (e.g., Charles E. Harris et al.’s Engineering Ethics:Concepts and Cases29 and Mike W.

The modelconnects Mejia et al.’s critical consciousness model [17], which engages Freire’s principles ofcritical pedagogy [18], with Hassan’s model of learning-assessment interactions [19]. “Mejia etal.’s model is represented in the center of this model, showing relationships between theory,action, reflection, and concepts of scholarship, praxis, concientização, and liberation that resultfrom their overlap. Hassan’s model of learning-assessment interactions is overlaid, with theoverlap taking the form of reflection as an assessment method and action as a learning method”[13

Then we offer amore in depth comparison of ABET’s development of Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC 2000) withthe current proposed revisions as they have unfolded. We seek to develop insights on the role ofgovernance in effecting change in engineering education, and specifically on historical changesin ABET’s processes for decision making and theories of change. These insights will point topossible interventions in governance structures to facilitate more inclusive participation in settingfuture directions for engineering education.IntroductionABET, Inc.’s proposed changes to Criteria 3 and 5 of the Engineering Accreditation Criteria,now in their third round of review and comment

social responsibility and moral decision-making,specifically in terms of engineering pedagogy.Keywords: social responsibility, embedded teams, human-centered design (HCD), engineeringeducationIntroductionSince Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) was first introduced in the 1950’s to expandorganizational bottom-lines from profit and legal considerations to issues of social impact, CSRhas grown into a global force for linking corporations with the areas in which members live andwork. Extant research has explored CSR on a broader organizational level, without necessarilyconsidering how social responsibility manifests on the team level. Thus, we contend that feelingsand understandings of responsibility experienced by students working on design
engineeringeducation compelled them to rely on quantitative standards for accreditation. Although ABET’sEngineering Criteria 2000 (EC 2000) reforms during the mid-1990s specifically worked to moveaccreditation beyond quantitative standards, namely the old “bean counting” approach, the actualimplementation of EC 2000’s “a-k” learning outcomes at some institutions still wind up in theend affirming Seron and Silbey’s findings: the new learning outcomes were often interpreted as alist of requirements to be met, rather than the starting point for a set of institutionally-specificcriteria that would require greater use of professional judgment on the part of both programevaluators and the faculty from programs undergoing evaluation (ABET 2016; also Pool 2016).This

Crowley et al. also explicitly addressed empathy, recognizing itas a “foundational component of emotional intelligence.” Notably, while Welker andCarlson’s and Crowley et al.’s papers treat empathy respectively as a framework forengineering students’ moral and emotional development, neither one cites sources thatexplain the theoretical underpinnings of empathy. The lack of reference to academic sources on empathy lasted for a few more years,during which time a number of papers appeared in ASEE that explore the role of empathyin communication, teamwork, and design, and yet authors of these papers

. Metacognition is the awareness and regulation of one’s own learning.Metacognition’s origin was in the context of learning in the early 1970’s [10]. In this paper, weare focused on the knowledge and awareness of cognitive activities, though other fields havesuggested metacognition could reasonably encompass all aspects of psychology [11].Metacognition of learning develops naturally as children mature and can also be advancedthrough active instruction and practice, which has been advocated by scholars for decades [11],[12]. In undergraduate contexts, students are likely to have “scripts” for learning that are resistantto change [2]. To address this challenge, Cunningham, Matusovich, Hunter, & McCord createdthe Metacognition Model (Fig. 1) to
community involvement, assuming NGO staff has theflexible schedule to do so. ETH teams can also influence how NGOs enact their ability toscale up and empower communities by conceiving designs that communities will be able tomaintain, operate, and build in different contexts and at different times.Once an NGO partner has been chosen, it is important to spend appropriate time developingthat partnership through curricula where students and NGOs find a common design languageand a balance between NGO goals and course objectives. Using available design frameworkssuch as those outlined above, design pedagogy must be carefully crafted in partnership withNGOs to strengthen student learning, NGO effectiveness, and community empowerment.8.

criteria during the 1996 reform effortknown as “Engineering Criterion 2000” (EC 2000). Also, because of EC 2000’s architects’decision to embrace outcomes assessment—but to do so only in part—ABET’s programevaluators (PEVs) were placed in the difficult position of having to balance the goals ofeducational standardization, improvement, and innovation across the diverse spectrum ofinstitutions through which we deliver engineering education in the United States.The case study is also significant because outcomes assessment has been part and parcel to theexpansion of neoliberal modes of governance not only in engineering education, but highereducation as a whole.
