This trend has been reflected inengineering pedagogy with a rise in teaming experiences in first-year and capstone designcourses of engineering curriculum in the U.S.1 Additionally the ABET EAC Student Outcomescurrently require students to have “(d) an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams”2. Evenwith recently proposed changes to the following criterion, “(7) An ability to function effectivelyas a member or leader of a team that establishes goals, plans tasks, meets deadlines, and creates acollaborative and inclusive environment,” ABET Student Outcomes still emphasize the need forengineering students to be able to work in diverse

His audience for these documents wasgenerally his peers, and the documentation was intended to be informative, used for training andoccasionally for decision-making. He said that in his industry experience, “everyone assumesyou must already know how to write” because of being a university graduate. He also mentionedthat he modified his writing based on the audience, including their preferences for format, anddiscussed the issue of length and level of detail. In his experience, design documents

The traditional emphasis on developing students with theoretical andanalytical skills, and the heavy load of engineering science and mathematics courses during thefirst two years of college leads many students to concentrate more on academic performanceand not realize the importance of developing professional skills.Over the past 30 years, there have been notable curriculum shifts in engineering education tomeet the needs of industry and the standards of ABET Accreditation.

It is because values such as profit maximization, subjection of nature, and control over society are part of the hegemonic ones nowadays that green-revolution- like agriculture is largely preferred over agro-ecology. That is, not only does technology shape society (item 2 above), society (or those particularly powerful there), on its turn, does also shape technology, choosing its development pathway based on those ethical-political values taken (for some) as the preferred or best ones. They, indeed, shape one another, constituting a

andmanagement—often framing management as the bureaucratic straw man against whichleadership shines. Drawing on the work of Komives [5] and Bass [6], we locate this distinctionin the source of an engineer’s influence and authority. When an individual’s authority is rootedprimarily in organizational structures and is enacted through project planning, budgets, orcompany policies, we characterize it as “positional,” following Komives, or “transactional,”following Bass. When an individual’s influence stems from his or her capacity to motivate andinspire others, and is less clearly derived from organizational policies or structures, wecharacterize it as “process-based,” following Komives, or “transformational,” following Bass.By using the position/process

These architecturesare most beneficial during project phases of exploration and divergence, as well as moments ofreflection and feedback. They are less beneficial in situations where the goal is content-deliveryor fast decision-making; in these contexts, existing pedagogies may be more advantageous. Byexploring how these architectures work both within and against existing communicationpractices in engineering education cultures, we collectively develop our capacity to collaboratewithin complex problem spaces.References[1] ABET. “Accreditation Criteria.” Internet: http://www.abet.org
