Engineering students and faculty members work together to develop, anddeliver, seminars in local schools and churches that demonstrate compatibility between scienceand religion, with emphasis on the role that engineering can play in this ongoing dialogue. Theproject team has committed to conduct 250 of these seminars over the life of the grant, with ananticipated total direct audience of approximately 12,500 people.Religions and religious denominations often take a simplistic view of origins based largely on aparticular interpretation of creation accounts offered by the special revelation of sacredscriptures.

This paper isorganized in three major parts, each focused on a different phase of the project and a variety ofassociated questions and challenges. After giving a general overview of the larger researchproject, the first major section of the paper is focused on clarifying our main domain of interest,including our efforts to develop a working definition of “global engineering competency” (GEC)that is grounded in both the extant literature and our own qualitative data set. This part of thepaper is particularly concerned with how we meaningfully delineate, define, and study specificdomains

For example, Chen et al.combined the use of weblogs and wikis with the creation of portfolios (Folio Thinking) tosupport learning and reflection in an introductory freshman seminar on design engineering atStanford University.
