Paper ID #31340Health Stress and Support System Narratives of Engineering StudentsDr. Greg Rulifson PE, USAID Greg is currently a Science and Technology Policy Fellow at USAID. Greg earned his bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering with a minor in Global Poverty and Practice from UC Berkeley where he acquired a passion for using engineering to facilitate developing communities’ capacity for success. He earned his master’s degree in Structural Engineering and Risk Analysis from Stanford University. His PhD work at CU Boulder focused on how student’s connections of social responsibility and engineering change
isan important part of responsible engineering design and technology [16], [17]. The social aspectof the model also speaks to the inherently social nature of ESI since ethical decisions are made incomplex organizational contexts that include many stakeholders [18]. Engineering ethics hastraditionally been taught with an individualistic approach that emphasizes the action andautonomy of a single actor; however, this approach has been criticized for not accounting for thecontext in which engineers work and their broader role in society [19]. The framework was alsoappropriate for this study because it relates moral and ethical development with understandingthe broader context, which mirrors both the microethical and macroethical dimensions
in teams cannot resolve process conflict to define responsibilities within the team, the team’sperformance is likely to decrease. Scaffolding from instructors may reduce harmful (often process andrelationship) conflict and help students understand the importance of necessary (often task) conflict. KEYWORDSTeam-member effectiveness, task conflict, process conflict, relationship conflictIntroduction Just like design or mathematics, teamwork is an important skill that universities try toteach their engineering students.

Moreover,with the MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) sprung up rapidly in China, a teaching teamin Tianjin University reconstructed the engineering graphics course by forming a completeknowledge hierarchy, carrying out the flipped classroom teaching with a student-centeredapproach, and adopting multi-dimensional assessment method [7].There are many other instances of these educational reforms in undergraduate engineeringeducation. However, most of them are implemented into a single course, which meansstudents are supposed to complete the transition from theory to practice in a very short periodof time, usually
