] proposed that students’ epistemic practice in SSI are understood through bothargumentation and informal reasoning [6], [13]. Based on an intensive literature review, Sadler [6]concluded that it is hard to assess the quality of student argumentation only by logical reasoningbecause in SSI contexts, everyday life experiences, moral and ethical beliefs, values, and cultureaffect students’ argumentation practices. Duschl also points out that student argumentation in SSIis a reasoning strategy that involves the general reasoning domain of informal logic as well ascritical thinking [10].In most recent research concerning argumentation, Toulmin’s model [14] was adopted as a usefultool to understand logical reasoning of argumentation. However, Toulmin’s

A survey of patients participating in a clinical trial revealed 85 %of the majority perceived the benefits of sharing de-identified data outweigh any negatives [5].There remains an ongoing debate regarding best practices, merits, challenges and approaches onseeking consent to data sharing [6] – [9].Despite research indicating benefits of sharing data, some researchers are unwilling to reportscientific findings.

For example, a neuroscience research tool called portableelectroencephalogram, or EEG, has been used in cognition-based education research, forexample, on the relationship between brain-to-brain synchrony and learning outcomes [56]. Thistool could be used in engineering education research to capture brain activities; the obtained newdata source could then be integrated with other student data to predict learning outcomes amongengineering students. Another area of challenge that needs to be addressed is creating ethical policies for usingdata analytics methods in research. The limited

Freire asserts that critical reflection, or "reflection and actionupon the world in order to transform it,” is a fundamental feature of critical pedagogical praxis[8]. Van Manen elaborates a definition of critical reflection as a form of reflection that “addsmoral and ethical criteria, such as equity and justice,” and locates “analysis of personal actionwithin wider historical, political and social contexts” [9].There are signs that reflective practice within engineering higher education has receivedincreased attention over time [10].

Whether it be controls, vibrations,heat transfer, biomechanics, or a concentrated list of technical subjects, our students are carefullyprepared for life in the technical world. The issue with stopping in our teaching at this list is thatwe do not provide our students with experiences that aim to bring them into contact with areasthat may make their lives both interesting and instructive.

Even as students have good intentions, there is atendency to focus on what seems solvable over what community members indicate are priorities.This is a result of years of outcomes-focused, over relational, educational practices. In theabsence of meaningful relationships, it is easy to lose sight of the purpose of communityengagement. Technologies that students create do not serve the needs of community partners,and community partners suffer as a result.At the same time, engineers’ desire to help and strong work ethic lend themselves well toworking on issues of social justice [3].
