As part of a goal-scenario framework,SLP students functioned as clinicians and were tasked with coming up with the fundamentalpurpose and design of custom therapeutic devices. ME students worked with SLP students todefine functional requirements and to develop specific solutions. ME students were also taskedwith defining an expedient and economic manufacturing method to realize the designs. Theproject was developed as part of a curriculum that supports ABET student outcomes:c. An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realisticconstraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety,restructurability, and sustainability.d.

In addition to the rich applied work experiences they can bring to their doctoralwork [3], returners may be more mature, goal-oriented, and motivated, and possess strongteamwork skills and a high work ethic [9] - [11].

However, NOE teaching is not an easy task,and a lack of NOE understanding also raises many issues and obstacles for science teachers toincorporate NOE in science instruction.

We framed eachquestion so as to obscure its origin while potentially allowing the student to draw out and discussa decision error of systems engineering. Why not simply give students descriptions of the failuresand the findings we discussed and have the students evaluate them? First, we wanted to eliminatebias due to students being familiar with a particular failure. For example, the Space ShuttleChallenger accident is a frequent topic in engineering ethics lectures. A learned, in-context,response from a previous exposure would not give us an indication of their abilities in systemsengineering. Second, the point of framing a question around a

Indeed, she expressed disdain when people attributed her success oraccomplishments to raw intelligence: I feel like smarts don’t really have anything to do with it. It’s just your time management, your willingness to work hard, your willingness to get your stuff done, not be lazy or give excuses. . . You know if you’re any student, I feel like those are expected of you.

As mentioned above, here national studies such as the NAE Grand Challenges aremore likely to serve as inspiration for local action.There is also a considerable extent to which institutions model what they do based on initiativesthat are already taking place at “peer and aspirant institutions.” Many universities in fact engagein the routine practice of assembling study teams when launching a new initiative, and theseteams are almost always welcomed at the colleges and universities that have alreadyimplemented successful programs. Academic traditions of openness appear to contribute to ageneral ethic of sharing. In addition, accreditation visits themselves serve as an importantmechanism for faculty to see what peer institutions are doing
