challenges in civil engineeringeducation and proposing educational reforms and initiatives to address these challenges. At the1995 Civil Engineering Education Conference, 235 participants considered a wide range ofissues and collectively identified four major areas for focused action by ASCE: (1) facultydevelopment, (2) an integrated curriculum, (3) practitioner involvement in education, and (4) thefirst professional degree.1Following the 1995 conference, the ASCE Educational Activities Committee (EdAC) assumedresponsibility for the faculty development issue area. EdAC proposed to the ASCE Board ofDirection that a standing Committee on Faculty Development be established and provided withfunding to plan and implement a teaching effectiveness workshop

His ethnographic work documents situated practice in grassroots policy initiatives and school-based activism among the Safaliba in rural Ghana. His language documentation includes conceptual metaphors and formulaic language in Salish Ql’ispe and Safaliba. He also explores applications of task-based language teaching in the pedagogy of revitalization.

This underscores theimportance of critically assessing educational materials for their role in upholding or challenginghegemonic narratives within the engineering discipline and broader society–an avenue that wewish to explore further.From an STS perspective, policy is considered an integral part of infrastructure, as it shapes thecontext of the specific places in which scientific and technological work unfolds. Policies dictatewhat is built, how it is used, who has access to it, and the norms of its use and conversely, theconsequences of a lack of transparent policy around how spaces are regulated. Yet, policies alsomust be translated and performed, and those performances are in part guided

Come to think of it, we've been going for a while, so why don't we do one more discussion round and then take a 15-minute break? (people nod agreement; discussion continues).In an engineering education context, we have used the Circle Way format to facilitate facultydiscussions on engineering curriculum design. We have also used it as the discussion format fora graduate-level course on signal processing, where technical topics discussed in the prior week’sclass were placed in the center for the class to explain, comment on, and ask questions about.The Circle architecture can be used to hold both intellectually and affectively difficult

Engineering ethics has been increasingly emphasized inengineering curricula. The Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET) hasspecific student outcomes related to ethical considerations.

Itbecomes clear that a sharper focus on stakeholders and features is a critical requirement forproduct success and an integrated approach is needed to help students navigate thesecomplexities. A systems engineering approach for undergraduate design education has been applied in firstyear to capstone design courses to help students with designing systems (Simoni, et al., 2016).The advantages of the approach are that one set of models or views is applicable to a widevariety of design problems making the common approach easier for students to learn and facultyto teach and assess

This may be due in part to the general lack ofactual engineering experience for engineering faculty [5]. Ralston and Cox write, “Leaders inU.S. engineering education point to increased ‘real world’ skills as crucial for meeting thechallenges of engineering in the future” [6].Experience plays a central role in the learning process [7] and therefore is an important part ofthe engineering curriculum.
