For instance, the projects which include ethical, environmental, and politicalaspects of construction are divided into smaller pieces. The students’ work resulted in a deeperand more detailed investigation of the assigned topics than similar projects. In addition, thestudents will learn more from peers during the presentation by this method. Also, they practiceworking as a part of a larger team, which can be the entire class.An example is a project to understand the interdisciplinary nature of construction projects andencounter the students with logical

Only certain types of smartness are recognized as valid for or pertinentto being a “good fit” for engineering [4], typically those associated with analytical ability. Thisnarrow construction of smartness in engineering negates other aspects of ability that are alsoimportant in engineering such as ethical reasoning, judgement in the face of uncertainty, or theability to collaborate and communicate on multidisciplinary teams [5]. Further, the constructionof smartness as success in math and science courses reflects majority (White, male, middle-class,etc.) values.
