, transportation system (or urban planning), energy production, and everything else, as it has held for child labor and steamboat boilers [10]. 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

The latter criteria help minimizeunobservable error in job preference measurement due to market effects. The leadershipconfidence and risk orientation relationships discussed in the Literature Review section of thispaper have no known theoretical inconsistencies across the range of engineering majors;however, while we believe that this study’s results should generalize across all engineeringmajors, our dataset does not allow us to empirically validate

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

A second example, aligned with the focusgroup interview result, shows how group ownership facilitates perspective taking & mentalflexibility: Also, a lot of us have never been in a setting like this where the project is entirely our own. I think we are also learned a lot about ownership and responsibility. Because the projects are our own we've also grown in our technical communication skills. In any project, especially when there is a language barrier, you have to be very clear about your ideas and plans. I've noticed myself being able to communicate my ideas more clearly to my team, others involved and other groups who are interested [student 4].This excerpt illustrates that this student is

They developed lesson plans, prepared pre- and post-assessments forstudent learning, wrote a report on the process they used to design their system and how thesystem works, and reflected on their own engineering design learning experience. Throughoutthe professional development, participants worked either collaboratively, independently, or a mixof both as they completed the design challenge.

, andextracurricular activities. A potential future area of contribution is to develop more detailedlesson plans that integrate these practices into specific engineering courses. 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

Team BAlex also had insight on the hackathon environment and its motivational aspects, “I think themotivation is definitely higher. I would say so because, I mean, there's more at stake here. It's notonly the prizes, but it's also the social aspect, and it's really just fun staying up all night coding tohave these sessions. It's four in the morning. You're tired, but your creativity is still flowing,”(Alex Post). Prior to hacking, Mark explained their plan for managing the team, “Like our idea,divide it up into

often preface his response witha winking admonishment, “that’s way beyond the scope of the class!,” he nevertheless foundhimself spending significant portions of class time answering such questions thoroughly.Given the nature of the questions (as beyond the scope of the class) only a small portion of theclass understood the content of these questions and answers. Thus this question and answersession functioned as projection of ability: students noticed who had the ability to play the gamein asking this sort of question. Instead, for the programming beginners like Becca, it was aperiod of confusion and a reminder of just how far behind they were.This lecture discourse pattern also meant less class time for the planned basic content, an
