Much was published about the STEM deficiencies and the neglected minds of thenation’s talented students, which prompted a whirlwind of short-lived legislation and programs,and published reports.

The promotionof these characteristics are intended to shift perceptions of engineers from object-orientedindividual workers to those who display a “strong work ethic (in collaborations andcommunications), are ethically responsible

Design in Engineering Education

. Page 24.468.21. Introduction1.1. BackgroundTeaching and learning engineering design is rather unique since the necessary skills are difficultto attain directly from conventional teaching-learning processes. Unlike other engineeringcourses, which mostly require science and mathematics to solve mainly close-ended problems,engineering design demands additional skills of solving open-ended problems, decision makingand effective communication in design teams. Designers are expected to be team players to solveengineering problems in an iterative manner while always keeping in mind the main designobjective and the concept of uncertainty. Dym1 indicated that one of the attributes that designersexhibit in their design thinking is the ability to assume

Students in both classes viewed the field trip and class visits favorably, but did notseem to fully appreciate the significance of the opportunity presented in fabricating art for aMassMoCA installation. In the Youth Culture and Gender class, students were most challenged by the hands-onaspects of the project because of the ways in which the real-world experience intersected withthe theory they had learned throughout their courses of study.
