Theliterature is inconsistent in defining what it means to be sociotechnical–e.g., engineering issociotechnical because of the societal impacts of engineering work or because of collaborativeand interpersonal nature of engineering work—[1]. Despite this inconsistency, the spectrum ofsocial aspects

Faculty come from all five departments of the college.For this three-year NSF-funded project, Year 1 was dedicated to deepening reflection asindividuals and building trust as a cohort. Now, in Year 2, the FLC is focused on translatingpedagogical practices from literature and other resources into particular courses. This cohort hasexperienced some adjustments as some faculty leave the FLC and new faculty choose to join theFLC. Since this cohort continues to grow, this paper presents key features that have supportedthe FLC’s formation and then transition
