entrepreneurship projects are constructed primarily in polysemous, contradictory terms. Students largely perceive empirical reality from secondary sources and superficial immersions in “local culture” that average four to eight weeks at a time. As an initial step in the reproduction of the ideology of humanitarian engineering/service learning, a series of markers are argued to constitute certain “facts” about the “third world” (a term used by engineering educators as recently as 2008). Subsequently the third world denizen(s) appears to stand as an abbreviation or, shorthand for a disparate constellation of attributes identified by outsiders visiting from the developed world. This results from a series of markers that apparently speak of

description of situated learning, Greeno et al. 32 describe knowledge as,“distributed among people and their environments, including the objects, artifacts, tools, books,and the communities for which they are apart.”32 This is nearly identical to Newstetter’s 8paradigm shift description of student learning in engineering design teams. This environment isalso consistent with Salas et al.’s 17 integrative model of team effectiveness. In describing thetheory, Salas et al. reference team leaders (plural) not team leader (singular) and describe howshared cognition affects leadership and vice-versa. Within the context of engineering education,this situated learning environment has been described by Johri & Olds 33 as a promising constructfrom the

For example, teachers, pilots, and doctors must all hold paramount thehealth and safety of the individuals in their charge, but among them only doctors must dedicatetheir work to the promotion of these individuals’ health and safety. The American MedicalAssociation’s (AMA) Code of Medical Ethics states that physicians are obliged to provide“competent medical care, with compassion and respect for human dignity and rights.”4 TheAmerican Bar Association’s (ABA) Model Rules of Professional Conduct urge lawyers tofunction as “representative[s] of clients, [officers] of the legal system

(note: PE licensure is not available for all disciplines)  What happens when engineers fail to follow these guidelines?After discussing the applicable Code(s) of Ethics, participants shift back to case studydiscussions. “Tweaking the Data” asks participants to consider how the power differentialbetween a supervisor/employee or mentor/mentee can impact the gathering and reporting of data.In this scenario, an inexperienced engineer is tasked with collecting data that ends up surprisingand puzzling the project manager

at the University.Many students measured this lack of course opportunities based on Advanced Placement (AP)options at their home high school. Of the seven participants, students reported between one andseven AP courses at their high schools, which they felt was less than the other students in theircourse of study. Even at the high end of this range, Student A mentioned: “So I guess, also partof that is the classes that we can take, like, the opportunities, because, you know, we only hadmaybe six or seven AP classes.... But then I talk to people that took, you know, 10, 12, you know,even more.” Student D noted that his school only had one teacher qualified to teach AP courses:“We don't have a lot of AP courses and [Teacher]’s, the only one

The most common feedback from the students was to move theproject and group selection earlier in the program so that expert talks could be arranged thatdirectly apply to their selected topic area(s) and/or to provide them more time for their projects.

In this exercise students, using post-it-notes, generate ideas on how might they solvethe problem to meet the user needs identified in “Define”. Students then got the opportunity tomeet with Milwaukee Bucks representatives to ask questions to validate their thoughts on usersand how they might solve the problem.The next step was Sketching.

Sverdlik et al.’s analysis also noted that poor communication of departmentalrequirements may lead to a discrepancy between the student’s and the department’s expectations ofwhat the student needs to do [6]. Such a discrepancy can lead to the student insufficiently integrat-ing into their institution and discipline, resulting in a decreased likelihood of degree completion[7].
