across programs betweendifferent engineering disciplines.Multidisciplinary, Interdisciplinarity and Transdisciplinary:As noted in Figure 1, multidisciplinarity is not a new phenomenon while interdisciplinarity is agrowing trend. However, there is a lack of consensus in the literature as to the definition of‘‘interdisciplinarity’’. Stokols et al. [5] provided distinct definitions describing the levels ofunion among different disciplines such as interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, cross disciplinary,and transdisciplinary science. In a multidisciplinary project, participants work independentlyusing their own discipline-specific knowledge to address a common problem. Relatedly, amultidisciplinary individual has knowledge in two or more academic

education and the professions.Researchers in engineering education call for innovative research methodologies to increase diversity in engineeringeducation. My unique new materialist and arts-based research project explores the intersections of race, gender,history, STEM education, and the arts, and is guided by the principles of culturally responsive methodologies. I usethis work-in-progress to better understand how the film Hidden Figures affected the public’s understanding ofscience, technology, engineering, and mathematics education and the professions. My purpose is to uncover andshare additional hidden stories about Black women’s experiences in engineering education and the professionstoday, but also to demonstrate a different methodological

share much in common with engineering, particularly in terms ofjob functions following graduation [21] such as project management; in both degree programsgraduates are trained to work with contingent problems. Two other degree programs are worthmentioning in terms of their need to deal with contingent problems and in which practitionersoften operate on heuristics rather than rules: teaching and nursing. Until fairly recently thesewere considered primarily occupations that women went into which associated them with lowerstatus than engineering or management given historical belief systems. However, the wayscontingent knowledge is used to manage highly contextualized problems is similar.An in-depth comparison of the educational methods used by

orneeded help. She always respected my opinion and listened to any problem I had.”)Giving and Receiving KindnessThose who give kindness reap benefits in their feelings of well-being [45]. So providing studentsopportunities to give kindness to others may be impactful. There are examples of this throughservice-learning activities [46] and through acts of intentional kindness [45]. An ideas that fitsinto more traditional engineering courses with team projects includes requesting that teammatesgive a few elements of positive feedback to their peers. In most engineering settings the normappears to be that good behavior is not commented upon because it is expected. That means thatpeople are more often given critiques or negative feedback.

Manager Design; Produc- tion Engineer; Quality Control Engineer). On top of his experience as a researcher/academician, he has been actively involved in research and accreditation work related to engineering education. His technical research areas are Applied materials and manufacturing; Applied mechanics and design; Reliability engi- neering; and Engineering education. As part of the Applied Mechanics and Advanced Materials Research group (AM2R) at SQU, he has been involved in different applied research funded projects in excess of 4 million dollars. He has over 200 research/technical publications to his credit (research monographs/books, edited book volumes, a 5-volume encyclopedia, book chapters, refereed journal

design [3], it is difficult to realizewithout adding another year to the existing, rigid course load requirements. Implementing theStrand Model and Freshman Seminars at The Citadel represents an effort to acknowledgedifferent interests.The entire General Education curriculum begins with a Freshman Seminar and correspondingFreshman Writing course. During the student’s senior year, the General Education curriculumculminates in a Capstone project that should be in the student’s major. Between the FreshmanSeminar and Writing Courses, all six outcomes are assessed. Again in the senior year capstone,all six outcomes are assessed. Throughout the General Education curriculum, specific outcomesare assessed in certain courses for depth and reinforcement

approach is to demand more engagement from the students [2]. This method is shown tobe effective as seen in prior literature [2-6]. However, it is observed that while students are morecollaborative in such dynamic learning environments, they still tend to align themselves to theviews of their team, and eventually, the direction of the course is defined by the instructor. So,while the active learning approach does bring the team along in the process of learning, there aresome aspects that still need to be addressed. One such aspect is the students’ engagement in termsof communicating their doubts and confusions. Typically, students show their original work viaassignments, quizzes, projects, and tests. However, the timeline for such activities is

practices within technological literacy.Game-Based Learning in Engineering EducationIn the realm of education, games have been gaining prominence as a medium for supportingstudents’ development and growth [9], [10]. Games can act as powerful learning tools that offerseveral benefits for learning including: developing professional identities [9], [32], providing asimulated project environment and context for learning professional skills and practices [9], [33]–[35], providing immediate and continuous feedback [7], [17], and inspiring new interests andenhancing motivations [10], [36], [37]. Much of the research in this area focuses on gamesdeveloped specifically for learning or educational contexts, often called serious games [38],although some work

to argue that because they are by their nature contingent, an informationgiving curriculum based on a collection of traditional disciplines is unlikely to developtechnological competency. The most likely curriculum to develop technological competencywill be problem/project based, accompanied by a study of qualitative engineering. Because itis likely to require students to obtain knowledge independently, and because individuals andorganizations learn, its base should be an active understanding of the nature of learning.Some examples of transdisciplinary programmes are mentioned together with sometransdisciplinary texts, but they err on the side of information giving rather than problemsolving and critical thinking which lie at the heart of
