0.002% uncertainty. To somestudents, this appears to be a reasonable if not a preferred representation of the final answer. Inan engineering thermodynamics course, this concept is more difficult for students since propertyvalues reported in tables often are specified at 6 significant digits, which can be interpreted as1/500000 or 0.0002% uncertainty. Having property values in thermodynamic tables expressed to6 significant digits, contributes to the students’ perception that more digits are better.Students are expected to learn to estimate uncertainties in laboratory measurements and be ableto propagate these to final reported measurement values.

Manyof these included open-source environments.It was also agreed that the format was to have a series of hands-on workshops where the studentscould evaluate and work on basic applications with selected platforms. Prerequisites were kept toa minimum and the intention was to show students the right tools for the right tasks.

To promote a more widespread implementation across the departments inour program we sought to bring about changes at a broader curricular level and to introduce thesepedagogies into regular classroom practice. Research has shown that for young adults, such thedesired skills and dispositions are best learned through experiential approaches (Cohen, 1996;Kolb, 1984). 20, 21 We therefore have begun to implement them in a variety of ways as part of anoverarching comprehensive approach to developing in students the needed academic andprofessional skills, and technical know-how, through exposure to what it means to be anengineer.Implementing
