Howsuccessful was the teacher in executing the engineering design process as taught through anengineering design challenge? We provide here a single case analysis for one teacher as a pilotstudy for future research. The paper provides a brief overview of our case study research inregards to data, methods, and preliminary results.

engineers work with great autonomy, graduating engineers must have themetacognitive skills necessary to negotiate the problems they encounter in practice.Recently graduated engineers agree with the importance of problem solving abilities on the job.Passow (2012) found that problem solving was one of the top ABET competencies thatgraduated engineers value. This same study found that life-long learning was ranked in themiddle in terms of perceived importance, but the study also found that life-long learning can bepositively tied to the highest ranked competencies, including problem solving.In Schon’s (1983) work on the “reflective practitioner,” he describes that professionalsconsistently face “messy” problems that require reflecting on one’s actions

thinking needs further attention.2The complexity in defining and understanding critical thinking is one of the major challenges forengineering educators and students.25-27 Hicks, Bumbaco, and Douglas argued that exploration ofinterconnection between different philosophical concepts, in particular critical thinking,reflective practice, and adaptive expertise, may help educators to better understand and applyeach concept.28 Yet, some scholars critique the traditional viewpoints on critical thinking. Clarisand Riley identified four major themes that engineers generally have given too little attention, orno attention at all: power/knowledge relationships, transgressive validity, reflection andreflexivity, and praxis and relationality.29In this paper
