Session 3215 SEVE - A Structural Engineering Visual Encyclopedia by Robert M. Henry ASEE/University of New HampshireIntroduction - The ProblemCivil engineers use construction (or engineering) drawings to convey to other engineers and laypeople their designs for bridges, highways, buildings, etc. These drawings are often labeled"contract drawings", because they define a contract between the architect, the engineer, and thecontractor as to how the finished project is to look, what materials are to be used, and how it is tobe built

The Global EngineerThe practice of civil engineering and construction on a global scale requires that engineeringgraduates be adequately prepared to deal with diverse issues that surpass their geographicalboundaries and challenge their comfort zone.

nature of engineering practice? As engineeringeducators, our responses to these questions often emphasize contextualization. Efforts toencourage engagement with public welfare, sociotechnical thinking, or social justice amongengineering students often begin - and sometimes end - with illuminating the broader context ofengineering practice and problems. For socially minded engineering educators, contextualizationis nearly always a virtue.This paper analyzes and critiques practices of contextualizing engineering. Based on a qualitativecontent review of recent engineering education literature, we first describe and classify differentmodes of contextualization. In some cases, contextualizing means adding personal context oralternative perspectives

In our study, we explored whether we could help students persist inengineering by encouraging such positive learning dispositions and behaviors.In this work-in-progress paper, we report preliminary results from a one-credit course called“Engineering the Mind.” We used design-based research and the Transtheoretical Model (TTM)of Health Behavior Change to design the course and assess the outcomes. The goal of the coursewas to encourage students to adopt positive learning dispositions and behaviors by teaching themhow the brain works.BackgroundDesign-based research (DBR) is a research method that evaluates theory-based interventions(that were developed in laboratory conditions) in complex

Nilsson 2015 [12, p.11] includes almost the same sentence: “In circuit theory, the separation of charge creates anelectrical force (voltage) and the motion of charge creates an electrical fluid (current).” Perhapsthis change was for brevity or clarity, but it is epistemically significant. When discussing idealresistors Nilsson 1983 begins by saying “One must keep in mind several important properties ofthe ideal resistor” and follows by describing three assumptions. Nilsson 2015 omits much of thisdiscussion, presenting only one assumption and ends by saying “In this book we assume

can see this worked out in Kallenberg’s [22] approach tothe teaching of ethics to engineering students, and we can also see that by substation of theengineering examples it is a more general application of design as knowledge. As both Kallenburgand Koen point out in any area of thought and practice that is ‘messy’ heuristics are valuable.Exercise 3. Student activity in relation to teaching decision making and its outcomesI had neither of these things in mind when I asked my students to design and implement a lesson toevaluate the merits of Wales and Stager’s design/problem solving heuristic for teaching decisionmaking.

However, there is a lack in addressing the subject in manufacturing education as well asutilizing the tools for gathering information, organizing and presenting it, along withidentification of what is taking place – analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. With this in mind, aproject-based manufacturing product design course relating not only to the engineering designand to development process, but also to critical thinking and its critical pieces need to bedeveloped.

Tochange engineering students’ mindsets from technologically-oriented to contextually approaches,Kastenberg et al. suggest that engineering students need to possess the goals of embodying thevalues of a new integrated culture of engineering, as well as enhancing self-awareness ofcontemporary issues [20]. Manion also suggested that engineering faculty members need notonly to increase students’ contextual awareness but also to complement this awareness byassisting them to transform their attitudes, values, and philosophies to match the engineer of the21st century [26].
