Technological and Engineering Literacy/Philosophy of Engineering

literacy / philosophy of engineering can lead to a society fallingprey to unfounded fears and over-reaction resulting in an inability to truly understand and assessthe important technological issues and attendant decision processes to the detriment of thatsociety’s well-being [6], [7].As educators, what should our next action(s) be regarding technological literacy / philosophy ofengineering [8]? From a bibliography [9] of technological literacy / philosophy of engineeringresources, we have a pedagogy (158 papers and references), a history and definitions (8 papersand references), and theory, studies, and data (37 papers and references). But, we have only 7papers and resources on the “Why?” (Figure 1), the piece essential to move the discussion

For this study,the specific platform used, Energy3D, recorded each student design action (e.g. Add Window,Edit Wall, or Annual Energy Analysis, Add Note) into a JSON format data-log. Researchers areable to use Energy3D to see all student design actions, their final design artifacts and relatedperformance of their artifacts on key design criteria. Three primary categories of action were thefocus of data analysis: Reflecting, Modeling, and Analysis. Table 1 summarizes our schema formapping action(s) to these categories.

Figure 1 portrays areas of velocity less than 4 in/s via the dark blue color (the inlet velocity),which is within the range of typical inlet velocities for spiral wound element configurations. Thespacer geometry also increases the velocity toward the top of the inlet as the pressure increases inthat region due to the chevron obstructing the fluid path.
