. B ─ CONCEPTUAL SKILLS AND VISIONConceptual skills include handling ideas, thoughts and concepts. These include critical reasoning, creativethinking, and reflective thinking.Critical Reasoning Critical reasoning involves needs-finding, assessment of alternatives that satisfy theneed, and reflection on outcomes. In short, critical reasoning or creative problem solving is what effectiveengineer-leaders do. Experience plays an important role in critical reasoning because current bestpractices often are the starting point for exploration of alternatives to a problem. Experience allows theengineer-leader to judge the viability of current technologies and propose new solution to the problems athand. Reflection on past projects, the solutions to

Implementation of theseactivities has the potential to lower the barrier to faculty participation in active learning. Themedia slogan “It’s so easy, a caveperson can do it” is the guiding principle behind thedevelopment of these activities. This paper will also present reflections of a diverse cross-section of teaching faculty and students for these classroom methods to highlight how thesepedagogical efforts may increase student self-efficacy for their technical learning.

these existing assessment tools is that they have been developed basedon different frameworks, and hence, the integration of non-consistent assessment tools into anoverall program assessment is challenging. Beard et al.7 suggest that an assessment plan toevaluate curricular efforts to integrate professional skills into programs should includestandardized rubrics.Beyond the studies that focused on assessment of individual skills (e.g., teamwork), a few recentstudies proposed more comprehensive assessment tools targeting a larger set of professionalskills. For example, Huyk et al.23 studied engineering students enrolled in multi-disciplinaryproject team courses to investigate the impact of reflections on the service learning and otherproject

students enrolled in a Strength of Materials course were required to create andimplement an outreach activity. The activity was designed to engage the students in anengineering concept while also learning what engineers do and the broad scope of engineering.Working with students one morning at the local middle school with hands on activities, theundergraduates presented concepts of buoyancy, electricity, strength of materials, andmechanics. The middle school students were asked to fill out a survey designed to gauge theirperceptions of engineering before the activities began. In addition, the undergraduates weregiven an open ended reflection framed as a “What happened?” “So what does it mean?” and“Now what will you do?” prompt. The

Onesubset of the experiential learning approach is community-engaged learning, which is intended toincorporate the five elements of engagement, academic connection, reciprocal partnerships, mutuallearning, and reflection [3].

researchuniversities seeking federal funding often led to RCR education being housed in legal orcompliance divisions, such as ethics and compliance offices, research divisions, such as grantdevelopment offices, or STEM academic units, such as schools of engineering or medicine(Geller, Boyce, Ford, & Sugarman, 2010). As Resnick (2014) argues, this institutionalbifurcation between the traditional teaching of ethics in the humanities to instill understandingand promote critical reflection, and the emphasis within the sciences to govern behaviors viaresearch conduct and professional codes creates problems when assessing ethics education.The emphasis on institutional factors in ethics education in this paper can be seen as a responseto a small but consistent

In particular, white men can recognize, and act against inequity both in their classes, aswell as overall systemic inequity in STEM departments [4]. However, disruption of privilegecannot occur without continuous reflection on their whiteness, and significant engagement withpeers and students of color [17], [18]. There is a paucity of research reporting on the structuralinequity in STEM fields [5].

In recruiting interview participants, we strategically oversampled for marginalizedracial/ethnic and gender identities to ensure diverse perspectives. During the interview process,we observed that student participants reflected on their strengths and connected them to theirwork in and beyond engineering courses, suggesting the potential of APPI to be used both as anasset-based pedagogical intervention and as a research method for collaborative sense-makingwith students about their experiences. We believe that students were able to better recognize andactivate their assets because of APPI’s roots in social constructivism, which enables participantsto engage in collective inquiry and dialogue
