struggling with college. 1. How did this student come to choose engineering? Who or what influenced them to make this choice? In high school Abby really liked math. However, she had a dream to go to medical school one day, and engineering seemed like a perfect way to combine these two passions. As someone who was pre-med, Abby thought chemical engineering would provide insight into the solutions that doctors end up prescribing to their patients, and that it would give her opportunities outside medicine if she ever changed her mind. Abby also had a cousin who got her bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering and then went off to become a doctor. Abby always thought that it was

Students at Cornell College are heavily involved in artistic andathletic activities. The students involved in this project had recently taken the engineering circuitscourse and have a musical knowledge background. The technical goal of the project was toconstruct a gesture-controlled piano that could recognize the distance from an object to the sensorand translate it into musical notes. The idea came from an open-source project designed by AndyGrove. The students built upon the open-source project and expand its capabilities. They addednew features to the initial

While it was not created with teacherempathy specifically in mind, it appears to be a framework that is flexible and adaptable enoughto apply to others including, for example, engineering faculty [1]. The model (Figure 1) iscreated with three dynamic and interdependent layers of empathy: the skills dimension, theorientation dimension, and the being dimension. The following sections elaborate on these threedimensions.
