The useof these spaces has been carefully integrated into the curriculum in order to achieve the stated goal ofequipping students with skills needed to navigate an evolving world of engineering. The design-heavycurriculum extends far beyond technical skills to include a variety of skills that are necessary for design.These skills include stakeholder identification, communicating with clients, and team formation.Early findings suggest a reluctance on the part of students to embrace non-technical skills needed for design.Students have regarded

Provide an environment for experiential learning where integration of various strands of electrical and computer engineering disciplines can happen.Similarly to the first goal, some programs offer so-called “cornerstone” courses [3], but themajority of these seem to be freshman courses aiming to provide motivation for potentialengineering students while providing somewhat authentic experiences. These freshman students,however, will typically not have enough technical background to accomplish the second goal. Inour curriculum, students enrolled in ECE 211/212

used towards this effort.The common curriculum approaches include offering business-oriented courses and/or offering aminor in entrepreneurship. However, the engineering programs at our university are already verypacked and there are limited elective credits available for courses in entrepreneurship.Furthermore, being a small private university, it is also a challenge to find faculty members withrequisite expertise in entrepreneurship. To overcome these constraints, we employ an innovativecurricular model that is based on integrating short e-learning modules into existing engineeringcourses. Content experts around the country were invited to develop these modules. As a result,the curricular approach we have adopted involves the following

For example, Busch-Vishniac andJarosz (2004) suggested that integration of team experiences to the curriculum of engineeringthat traditionally had been left to senior year, in earlier years would improve the reputation ofengineering and help students enjoy the academic experience more. Similarly, Gunasekera andFriedrich (2009) argued that the dominant theory-based and not value-oriented pedagogies inSTEM “alienate those students who learn best in creative, cooperative settings that considervalue and emphasize design and synthesis” (p. 162).Intentional instruction about teamwork, particularly when it emphasizes diverse teams andinclusive work practices, offers students professional skills they need to be successful, while

engineering 1curricula could greatly benefit from sociotechnical integration in undergraduate engineeringeducation to encourage the development of sociotechnical thinking and habits of mind [4].Sociotechnical thinking is defined as, “…the interplay between relevant social and technicalfactors in the problem to be solved” [4]. Within the term sociotechnical, the first part, social, isused as an umbrella term that covers multiple broad social dimensions of engineering problemsolving, including but not limited to economic, environmental, ethical, and health and safety-related dimensions.

difficulty.One tool for promoting first-to-second year undergraduate student retention is the use of a first-year seminar [5]. Most first-year seminars take place in small, discussion based settings and theyconsist of curricular and co-curricular topics that are designed to help students integrate bothacademically and socially into college life [6]. Due to the high number of credit hours requiredfor students in the GVSU School of Engineering, the first year curriculum is being reviewed toidentify how to include a mandatory first year seminar in the program plans. Rather than waitingfor the planning and approving of a fist year seminar, the learning skills modules wereimplemented in an Introduction to Engineering course during the Fall 2018 semester.The

interventions have proven effective atachieving myriad ethics-related learning goals [3-6]. However, as a cursory review of thesearticles will reveal, the specific learning objectives and associated strategies for integrating ethicsinto the engineering curriculum vary widely. As a result, there is not a single proven recipe forsuccess in promoting engineering students’ ethical formation, nor is there an agreed upon end.In 2001, Haws [7] identified six prominent strategies utilized by engineering instructors forachieving ethics-related learning objectives. These included (1) professional codes of ethics, (2)humanist readings, (3) theoretical grounding, (4) ethical heuristics, (5) case studies, and (6)service learning. More recently, Hess and Fore [8

Our findings indicate that, forboth engineering and non-engineering students, lexical-semantic integration of the critical wordin metaphorical sentences is cognitively more effortful than in literal sentences, but easier than insemantically anomalous sentences. Critically, while we did not find differences in how engineers and nonengineersprocessed sentences referring to engineering and nonengineering, we observed an inter–groupdifference in the general pattern of responses to the sentences.
