adirect quotation, “Since the 1980s, science and engineering (S&E) communication has beendominantly geared towards educating a public perceived as misinformed and/or having a deficit ofknowledge.” 2 (p. 1) The perception of a public with a lack of understanding of engineering wasrelated by Wynne 3 to the term “deficit model”, which characterized a style of science andengineering communication based on the assumption that any public disinterest, skepticism, orcriticism towards science or engineering was based on being either misinformed or possessing Page 24.495.3insufficient information about the fields.

This difference of experiencewas reflected in student comments at the end of the course, with feedback divided betweenstudents who thought the instructor “disorganised” versus those who ranked the lectures asextremely valuable. Evidently, only the students who kept up with the topics being covered Page 24.152.8found the lectures helpful.Level 1The first level in each of the seven “missions” was intended to make the students read thetextbook chapter(s) relevant to the mission.

Indeed, almost all professional engineeringorganizations cite effective communication skills as a top priority for graduating engineers. Forinstance, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE)’s The Engineer of 2020: Visions ofEngineering in the New Century outlines expectations for engineers entering practice within thenear future (National Academy of Engineering, 2004).

The retrospective post-then-pre design was proposed in the late1970’s as a way to minimize/eliminate response shift bias in self-reporting pre-post surveys36. Inthe retrospective post-then-pre design, both before and after information is collected at programconclusion.

. Nonetheless, the college levelis similar to the K–12 level in that “[s]tandards-based grading sets high standards for studentsand puts them in charge of their own learning by letting them set goals based on specific learningstandards.”4 Undoubtedly, that outcomes-based assessment can “communicate expectations”clearly and directly is something many students have found refreshing.In an article that defines four recommendations for implementing outcomes-based assessment,Marzano and Heflebower claim that by getting rid of all “omnibus grading,” students can betterunderstand their own knowledge of the subject, and can see the progress they are making or needto make.

Some curricula with an ethics threadeducate students about macroethical issues in later years, such as a third-year course with ethicsintegration at Drexel26. Another way that engineering students may come to appreciate theimportance of social responsibility is via service-learning (S-L) courses, which is the basis forsome first year projects / design courses27-32.An emphasis on social responsibility within engineering may be significant beyond its intrinsicimportance to individuals and society.
