absence of sufficiently developed soft-skills, resulting inan extremely challenging situation for both students and instructors. In response to this, SittingBull College (SBC) has embarked on a program, hereafter called IFYEP (Integrated First YearExperience Project), to incorporate a focus on soft-skills development into a cohort-focused firstyear experience. The IFYEP model can serve to enhance the cultivation of soft-skills without theneed for significant curricular change. Furthermore, this program model is capable of fostering aculturally appropriate learning community that helps bridge the gap between mainstreamacademic settings and the students’ collective culture of origin (see [8], [9] for background).

with higher spatial ability (79% of graduating engineering students) maintain a highlevel of spatial ability and graduate with only a slightly higher overall GPA than theircounterparts with low spatial ability.Given past work in this area [1,3,9], it would appear that either the curriculum at Stevens is notas reliant on spatial skills in order to be successful, or that students are able to work around anydeficiencies in these skills that they might experience. As the design courses at Stevens, an arenawhere students are most likely to need greater levels of SVS, are almost exclusively basedaround teamwork and group projects, students with lower levels of spatial ability may be aidedby their group for example.As discussed in previous work

For many years, these programshave included an engineering ethics course as part of the first-year general education curriculum.Typically, the course covers normative ethical theories, a code of ethics, and three famous casestudies: The Challenger Disaster, SDI: A Violation of Professional Responsibility, and GilbaneGold. Students are assessed based on their report-writing skills, a method that can disadvantageinternational students. Additionally, senior students are expected to evaluate the ethical issues intheir capstone project designs. However, the generic approach to teaching ethics often results inless student engagement and superficial learning [11]. Graduating students are expected topossess in-depth knowledge

engineering.Maintaining epistemological uncertainty in engineering work is an inherent part of expansivethinking. As students make space for including social, political, and economic aspects inengineering work, they question what is valuable (what should be foregrounded) and how theycan include these aspects. By maintaining uncertainty, they explore new sociotechnicalimaginaries of what designs are possible, especially from the standpoint of equity and socialjustice. These uncertainties are not static and are not necessarily shared between all members inone group. At any given moment, students’ uncertainty may be raised, dismissed, ignored, oracknowledged (Jordan & McDaniel, 2014).MethodsThis study is part of a larger NSF-funded project to integrate
