design by using a preliminary data analysis.Keywords: logic of design, decision making, design philosophy1 IntroductionDesign and engineering of technological artifacts are the core functions of modern corporationsthat are situated in an increasingly international network of production, distribution, and exchange.It is well established in Science and Technology Studies (STS) 1 or history and philosophy of tech-nology 2,3 that social and political intentions as well as technical and instrumental necessities deter-mine the outcome of design and engineering decisions. Industrial and technological corporationsare establishments with financial, political, and moral roadmaps that among other entities such asresearch universities, national labs, or

the search on “human rights” AND engineering into thecategories of: sociology 189; genetics heredity 166, medical ethics 141, government law 113,social issues 96, philosophy 89, psychology 88, health care sciences services 86, behavioralsciences 81, and engineering 69. This indicates that other disciplines commonly exploreintersections among engineering / technology and human rights. Comparing the number ofarticles published in the European Journal of Engineering Education with the Journal ofEngineering Education (affiliated with the American Society for Engineering Education, ASEE),those outside the U.S. seem to more frequently explore intersections among human rights andengineering.Table 1.

enter, sustain, and improvetheir cycles of empathy.Design/MethodA qualitative approach is taken to compare and contrast the end-of-semester reflections fromstudents in engineering and design. Coding, an ethnographic research method used to findthematic patterns and similarities throughout documents, is used to analyze end-of-semesterreflections from students who have taken courses in electromagnetism for electrical engineers,electromagnetism for non-electrical engineers, and an industrial design course with a focus onengineering and technology literacy for designers.ResultsWe propose a multi-cycle model of empathy in engineering that identifies self-awareness as thefirst step to empathy through the cycle of inquiry. Our model incorporates

Technological changes and growing stakes have put pressure on medical andengineering programs to evaluate their education to better address society’s needs. Physicians,medical educators, and researchers have turned to the hidden curriculum to examine how toimprove medical education by illuminating both the positive and negative undercurrents. Thispaper attempts to take a similar approach with an eye to ethics and societal impacts (ESI)education in engineering.The hidden curriculum framework has recently been applied in engineering using mixed

driving factor to benefit society.Newman’s thought laid out a framework which has influenced many modern institutions.More recently, however, there has been increased focus on the economic benefits ofeducation, particularly STEM education, which are summarized in many policy reports ofwhich the following is a typical example [2]: Engineers are essential to the creation of new technology, which has been a large contributor to US economic growth over the past century. Thus it is of national importance that the population of engineers available to the labor force is continually replenished and updated to thrive amid changes in technology and the global marketplace.The increased focus on economics comes at a

We do have few students who take it from collegeof design to satisfy their technology requirements and other colleges, but the numbers are not high.Most of the students are from different engineering programs. They take this class for technicalrequirements of their program. The class is most popular for students in Computer Engineering.It is designed for students who are interested in electromagnetism (EM) but are not necessarilyinspired by calculus-based version. While the students see and discuss the relevant mathematicaltools and concepts, they are not required to show the mastery on that, unless they decide to havetheir final project in area that require calculus depth. The course is focused on concepts,applications, the

innovation, makerspaces and technology-assisted learning. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Beyond the Maker Movement: A Preliminary Partial Literature Review on the Role of Makerspaces in Engineering EducationabstractMakerspaces have grown over the last few years as public awareness of the maker movement hasincreased. Makerspaces are open to the public as community design studios that cultivatecreative and technology-based projects alike. Fabrication labs and makerspaces serve ascollective organizations that help facilitate design and prototyping for individuals that may nothave access to that equipment or material outside of that physical location. In engineeringeducation, there is a vast
