, etc.Tinkering has been defined as a type of making that sits on the more creative and improvisationalcontinuum where things could fail in unexpected and sometimes wonderful ways [1]. Thisapproach relies on materials, phenomena and models to inspire ideas along with a collaborativeculture of facilitators and fellow tinkers to support learners in realizing their ideas [2]. A learningdimensions framework for Making and Tinkering developed by the Exploratorium [3] providedguidance and structure to the “tinkering” instructional initiative for this project. Although theframework was generated with K-12 informal learning experiences in mind, it offers a promisingpedagogical approach for undergraduate engineering education.

We discuss our planning process, share our courseassignments, discuss challenges encountered, and reflect upon outcomes for our students. Weexplain how the course enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration, fostered deep discussion, andinvestigated the links that connect artistic and scientific disciplines. We believe that throughintentional integration of engineering and art, students gained experience in a variety of modesof inquiry.

As a result, elementary teachersmight then be better equipped to build students’ engineering identity and encourage them toconsider engineering as a potential career option.In addition to helping students develop engineering identities, exposure to engineering inelementary school is also beneficial for developing students’ engineering habits of mind(EHoM). EHoM are internalized dispositions and ways of thinking that engineers draw uponwhen confronted with problems [4] and include things such as optimism, persistence,collaboration, creativity, systems thinking, and attention to ethical considerations [5]. TheseEHoM can be beneficial to all students, regardless of career choice, but as with all habits,EHoM take time to develop. As

This enables them to pose and evaluate questions of future impacts inthe consideration of a diversity of needs. Furthermore, this paper theorizes that understanding theinterconnections among nature, empathy, ethics, reason, imagination, design, and technology inbeing human leads to the development of a holistic engineering approach and holistic designthinking practice. Such an approach should be flexible and mindful enough to adapt to manyproblems. The pivotal role of flexible thinking modes, particularly emphasizing visual, critical,causal, associative, and

They offer this rationale for this philosophy: For example, this work posits that that [sic] a primary goal of pre-college engineering education is for students to develop a command of the engineering design process and engineering habits of mind and that traditional math and science content goals are secondary to this in an engineering class. This is an important commitment. […] Our contention is that they cannot be a side-note in traditional math and science

Here, the top circle is the engine of all student activities related to learning frombuilding rockets. It also appears to be the driver of student attitudes about learning, particularlywhen students describe their collaborative activities leading to learning independence. Second,the attitudinal mindset of the groups was learning from failure. When a student occasionallyrevealed what they needed to overcome the “failures,” the answer was often more data andresearch. These failures were related to testing aspects of the rocket that one finds in theengineering design process, rather than failures of will or

Lovelace was fascinatedwith Babbage’s Difference Engine. With her analytical mind she could understand how itworked as few people could since she had been extensively tutored in mathematics throughouther childhood. Her mother had decided that a solid grounding in mathematics would ward offthe wild and romantic flair that possessed Lovelace’s estranged father. After meeting in 1833,Lovelace and Babbage remained a part of the same social circle and wrote to each otherfrequently [9].Ada Byron married William King in

Related LiteratureMany teachers engage in discourse that is monologic—or to use van de Weghe’s phrase, theyplay the game of “What’s on my mind?” (p. 88). Decades of research has indicated thatmonologic patterns—most notably, the I-R-E patterns—dominate classroom discourse regardlessof academic discipline.1, 8 Nystrand and colleagues

understanding students’ attitudes towards writing can lead to improved competency.Graduate engineering writing education in the United States, however, is complicated by the factthat over half of U.S. engineering graduate students are international. While most graduateprograms require English proficiency exams, like the TOEFL or IELTS, these exams do notmeasure proficiency at disciplinary academic writing, the genre of which is “foreign” even to U.S.domestic students. With these two populations in mind, this study seeks to investigate the attitudesof graduate engineering student writers, seeking to draw comparisons and illuminate differencesin the ways in which graduate engineering students conceptualize and approach the writing processin order to lend

These engineers, who may have performedindividual contributor tasks for most of their careers, may feel unprepared and unconfident, andthus unhappy, when placed in higher-responsibility leadership positions. Another possibleexplanation is that engineers feel like the higher responsibility tasks are not necessarily moreimpactful than are the lower-level tasks.
