In addition, gender and prior academic CGPA were found not to be significantlyassociated with the increase in peer learning and collaboration (p>0.05) while class level wasfound to be significantly associated (p<0.05). The findings of this study contribute valuableinsights to the field of environmental engineering education, suggesting that innovative, lesscumbersome, easy-to-use technology when combined with teaching methods can enhance peerlearning and collaboration. These findings may inform future curriculum design and instructionalapproaches to better equip students in addressing the complex environmental issues of our era.IntroductionThe world today faces numerous environmental challenges and

of how ethics integrated into technical coursescan help engineers understand the social context of engineering and factor it into their work after graduation,helping bridge the gap between social and technical. A similar concept was also suggested in Holsapple etal. [6] where the authors indicate that even in non-ethics courses faculty can incorporate their ownexperiences of ethical dilemmas into their classes. This pedagogical technique could also addressmacroethical issues by helping facilitate integration of ethics and science, technology, and society aspresented by Herkert [15] and Finelli et al. [11] into the general curriculum of engineering, as well as helpovercome the resistance by students to CSR topics being taught in technical
dualism, “the distinction between being technology-focussed, on the onehand, and people-focussed, on the other” which is “manifest in the distinction often drawnbetween narrowly specialist and more holistically heterogeneous types of work and knowledge inengineering” (Faulkner 2000, p. 761-2). We note that the emphasis on meritocracy and the socio-technical dualism is common across Riley’s, Cech’s, and Slaton’s characterization ofengineering culture.These aspects of engineering culture strongly influence the ways in which resources and rewardsare distributed within teams, organizations, and institutions, and how status is built withinengineering communities. Because of this, we link these cultural norms to the notion of ideologyas described in
tissues [8,9].Furthermore, bioadhesives have been developed as delivery vehicles for cells [10,11] and otherbioactive factors [12,13], which may promote more regenerative healing. The current state ofbioadhesives focuses on sealing tissue defects; however, the aim for next-generation bioadhesivesis to promote complete healing, or regeneration [14]. Achieving this goal will require diversescientific teams, which produce higher impact work [15–17].Outreach with K-12 students is an effective way to engage younger students to study science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) at the university level [18,19].
