which is a major, but littlerecognized, challenge for engineering education. The use of computer assisted learning toprovide the required knowledge is already being promoted as an alternative. Clearly, thereis no need for a lecture if the same material is available by alternative methods and can beat a time and paced to suit an individual. Considering the effectiveness of such onlinelearning as the only metric, as educators are wont to do, is foolish. What will increasinglydrive adoption of automated learning platforms at all but the most elite institutions iseffectiveness vs. cost [26]. If there is no need for lectures, and laboratory work can besimulated, what is the purpose of a university other than as an aid to social mobility? Auniversity

professional skills regardless of which STEM career ischosen. Therefore, teachers need to not only teach standards that support STEM contentknowledge, they must also help students build professional skills.One of these professional skills that has been gaining more attention in K-12 education isargumentation11. Learning the process of argumentation helps the development of reasoning,critical thinking, communication, social behaviors, and information gathering skills. These skillsare necessary for daily life, professional activities, and all facets of education, which makesargumentation an important competency for students to engage in. Incorporating argumentationskills into curricula encourages students to become independent thinkers and problem

Workingwith the Gang of Six, and with additional funds from NSF, Aldridge organized a series of 12regional workshops that engaged several hundred faculty members to learn the purposes andrequirements of EC 2000. Assembling faculty, not administrators, with a demonstrated interest inundergraduate teaching, Aldridge worked to develop a cadre of teaching faculty across differentinstitutions who understood and believed in outcomes assessment. These workshops were crucialto building on-the-ground interest and support for EC 2000 and outcomes assessment as a whole.It was also around this time that Gloria Rogers, an education specialist working with RoseHulman, got involved.

The knowledge available to all these segments is large andlearning can be at various levels of depth which is determined to some extent by a person’sability and previous knowledge. When these knowledge dimensions are combined it is easyto imagine a substantive degree program in engineering/technological literacy. Equally it iseasy to perceive that the kind of teaching and learning necessary to bring about the outcomesof engineering/technological literacy would have to be very different to that undertaken in thesame courses when treated as separate entities within a traditional program.
