This study indicated that there were mild correla-tions between performance and self-assessment (enough to warrant further study).The present study looks to see if comparing students’ self-assessments to performance acrossmultiple problems shows any more correlation than was found in the one question to oneproblem work of Sarin and Headley.1 The analysis is based upon data collected in the

classes and engineering. That is, it is important to create linksbetween non-technical courses and the engineering thought process in order for the student tounderstand how non-technical topics (economics, entrepreneurship, business modeling, ethics,political science, psychology, and global competitiveness) affect an engineer’s job. For example,an engineer can use a basic knowledge of psychology to learn how to empathize with the end userof a product. This in turn will help the engineer become more creative by understanding how hisdesign is perceived by other people. The downside is that the introduction of non-technicalcourses is constrained by credit hours. If a department wishes to pursue this option, it must decidewhat portions of its current

The report, Engineeringin K-12 Education, recently released by the National Academy of Engineering and NationalResearch Council6 provided a very insightful view of engineering education in K-12. The reportclaimed three principles for K-12 engineering education. First, it believed K-12 engineeringeducation should emphasize engineering design. Second, K-12 engineering should incorporateimportant science, mathematics, and technology concepts and skills. Finally, K-12 engineeringshould align with 1) systems thinking, 2) creativity, 3) optimism, 4) collaboration, 5)communication, and 6) attention to ethical considerations to promote engineering “habits of mind”(pp. 4-6). In summary, the report concluded there is no

The last cause that should be addressed to make sure that engineeringgraduates know what exactly it means for them to practice engineering throughout the realworld. The university faculty need to instill not only book smarts, but also working under timeconstraints, correcting problems without assistance, dealing with the increasing amount ofpolitical pressures, ethical training, and understanding their obligation to the general public asprofessional engineers. Each course should have its own practical contents in place to helpstudents grow in each one of these categories and help them become well-rounded graduates.Due to this, it is only natural for the
