Students focus on technical aspects and analyze social and technical consequences. • Redesign classroom assessment rubrics to incorporate engineering habits of mind. Include sections for systems thinking (technical aspects), innovation (design aspects), adaptations and improvements (iterative processes), socio-cultural and ethical considerations (social aspects), communication (understanding the problem and considering multiple perspectives), collaboration (teamwork and fostering new strategies), and finally sociotechnical integration (understanding emergent factors).The Projects course taught at

The most common REFERENCESreasons for why not in the beginning survey was becausethey did not know what it meant to be an engineer. After the [1] https://eie.org/overview/engineering-childrenprogram, those who were still not interested had othercareers and interests in mind. Some of those careers includedthe medical fields and athletics. Others said that they simplydid not enjoy science and math.

higher numbers of disclosed disabilities, there is some indication that reporting is still not where it needs to be. The 2016 Healthy Minds Study suggested that up to 35% of students enrolled in higher education institutions met the criteria for at least one mental disorder in the prior 12 months [2]. This statistic indicates that the rate of reporting dramatically underrepresents the number of students in need of accommodation and demonstrates the importance of universal design in all classrooms to truly serve all students. Universal Design Principles (UDP) were introduced in 1997 in order to make space more usable for people with diverse abilities by a group of architects, product designers, engineers and environmental design researchers to

McGregor’s ‘Mind and Movement Process’ [39], and in design where thed-school ‘Bootcamp’[40] has been shown to support the often frightening process of jumpinginto the unknown. Daly, Yilmaz, et al. have developed a large, encompassing set of designheuristic cards for the design context of mechanical engineering and have argued convincinglythat such heuristic tools can assist engineering students with both design confidence and indeveloping divergent design solution sets [25], [41].Building on these models a deck of thirteen tactical geo-design cards was created, over thecourse of three semesters by, and for, an engineering graduate course in GIS mapping andinterdisciplinary research at SMU.

Additionally,the Committee on K-12 Engineering Education notes that in all levels of education, little isknown about “which engineering knowledge, skills, and habits of mind are most important, howthey relate to and build on one another, and how and when (i.e., at what age) they should beintroduced to students” [3, pp. 8]. Therefore, the Committee encourages research on engineeringcurricula “that will provide a basis for analyzing how design ideas and practices develop instudents over time and [determine] the classroom conditions necessary to support thisdevelopment” [3, pp. 7].The new expectations of engineering learning standards in preK-12 education in the UnitedStates have put

In our study, we explored whether we could help students persist inengineering by encouraging such positive learning dispositions and behaviors.In this work-in-progress paper, we report preliminary results from a one-credit course called“Engineering the Mind.” We used design-based research and the Transtheoretical Model (TTM)of Health Behavior Change to design the course and assess the outcomes. The goal of the coursewas to encourage students to adopt positive learning dispositions and behaviors by teaching themhow the brain works.BackgroundDesign-based research (DBR) is a research method that evaluates theory-based interventions(that were developed in laboratory conditions) in complex
