of engineering and the process knowledge of engineering education? Manyengineering faculty, and much of the research, discuss this interface as occurring in classroomsand other formal education opportunities. Considering only formal education is limiting to ourunderstanding of the practice of engineering education and the impact of engineers on society;founding axioms, as discussed below, are a recurring theme in the translation of technicalliteracy. Jesiek et al.5 show the increasing use of the various models to discuss the connectionsbetween research and practice, including Stokes’ research quadrants6 and the more familiarresearch to practice cycle as adapted for and by the National Science Foundation during the timeof the Course

This paper augments the panel and captures the backgrounds, experiences, perspectives,and recommendations of the panelists, thereby providing a lasting resource for those unable toattend the panel or future interested individuals. The information we present targets men andadministrators, who will better understand the barriers to advocacy, learn best-practices ofeffective advocacy, and hear first-hand experiences of successful advocacy.BackgroundMany factors – systemic and non-systemic, conscious and unconscious, policy and climate – cannegatively impact

Another research project developed a full online course on wood design with virtual laboratories aimed at undergraduate and graduate students, and practicing professionals16, 17. These curriculum and learning materials illustrate the potential of earthquake engineering as a context for learning and demonstrate how research can be integrated with and used to support formal education.Informal Education Informal settings such as museums offer excellent venues for communicating social, cultural and scientific information, correcting misconceptions, and transforming attitudes and

Vives wrote, “No greater danger for sons of the poor exists than a cheap,inferior, and demoralizing education” [26].

At our institution, the natural avenue for opening thisopportunity to a broader pool of students was the required course, ENGL 2000: EnglishComposition, which focuses on writing in a variety of genres, with an emphasis on research andargumentation. As a result of this challenge, a pilot section of English 2000 was developed.Because of limited travel funds, the English instructor, who shared an appointment with theCollege of Engineering through the CxC program, remained on campus. The English 2000section was designed to run concurrently with IE 4785, and was taught online using MoodleTM,Adobe ConnectTM, GoToMeetingTM, and SkypeTM.This paper details the advanced preparation required and the methods used to

With the growth of makerspaces on universitycampuses, some efforts have been made to develop and implement some best practices toestablish new facilities [21] and to create a classification system of academic makerspaces as ameans to compare different makerspaces for planning purposes [27].The tools and equipment available, along with the design and layout of each makerspace, candepend on the community it serves. One of the most common features of any makerspace is theuse of digital tools for the creation of physical artifacts [2], [3], [6], [9], [25]. Along with 3Dprinters, many maker workshops include other rapid prototyping tools that can be used onmaterial like wood, metal and plastics, such as computer

But, in understanding what might have happened in the cockpit, it isessential to understand that the cockpit is a socio-technical system, the technical design ofwhich impacts on the behaviour of pilots [19].Flight simulator training is very expensive: but, Boeing made the assumption that it would beunnecessary because the aircraft was a development of the 737 series for which the pilots tobe used on the 737Max were already trained [CS 5]. Substantial training might also haveindicated to the FAA and others that the changes in design which necessitated such trainingwould not be considered as a natural development of the 737 and, therefore, require costlyand time consuming new certification.

However, while there are other pathways to achieving the same goal it is not thepurpose of this paper to advocate any one way but to illustrate potential that the cognitivelyadjacent subject of Technological and Engineering Literacy has to offer.Engineering and Technological LiteracyRecent discussions about the nature of technological and engineering literacy reveal that thetopic covers a wide range thought and practice ranging from the sociology of the impact oftechnology on society to the engineering of artefacts. In consequence there are severalaudiences that may be addressed, as for example children who are technologically but notphilosophically literate or, those adults that need a form of

research.This has diminished efforts to teach the means and methods of bringing scientific discovery andengineering inspiration into material practice.Engineering firms and manufacturers who employ new graduates lament that a majority of earlycareer engineers require excessive mentoring and educating to make them productive asdesigners. Their education made them great analysts, but sold them short on design andfabrication skills. This lament is common knowledge among engineering principals, but onlyshared through private discussions between peers. However, it has surfaced in anonymouslyconducted surveys, a major one as part of a report sponsored by the Governing Board of theNational Research Council (NRC), Education of Architects and Engineers for
government agencies. In 2010, Dr. Lambrinidou co-conceived the graduate level engineering ethics course ”Engi- neering Ethics and the Public,” which she has been co-teaching to students in engineering and science.
