, 2016 From Problem Solvers to Problem Seekers: The Necessary Role of Tension in Engineering EducationIn this paper it is proposed that the current focus on problems in engineering education andtechnological literacy may be more constructively reframed by focusing on tensions. PriyanDias claims engineering has an identity crisis that arises from tensions inherent in: 1) theinfluence of the profession on society, 2) the role engineers play, and 3) what constitutes validknowledge in engineering. These are ethical, ontological, and epistemological tensionsrespectively, which Dias frames as a tension between identities of homo sapiens and homo faber.Beyond the tensions in engineering there are additional tensions that arise

Furthermore, most instruction on sustainability, as reported in the literature, appears tofocus on teaching the engineering student to be an engineer who practices sustainabledevelopment rather than a consumer who has a role in sustainable practice. In part, thisemphasis on the engineer's role in sustainability is a result of the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET)'s mandate that engineering undergraduates complete theirdegrees having achieved student outcome (c): “...an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability

As they discussed their journey throughundergraduate school and their career their description of what it meant to be an engineer nolonger reflected the stereotypes that they described initially. They started to personalize theirdefinitions to now embody personal traits, and they started to describe engineering as part oftheir individual and collective identities. Andy described engineers as individuals with a “strongwork ethic… and high integrity,” “being comfortable around technical information,” and“definitely takes a different kind of thinker to be an engineer.” She also described it as “fun,”likening engineering to being “[…] a private detective.” Others

Under this assumption, it is argued that an adequately weighted homeworkassignment could also be considered as a practical approximation of the unit impulse function,provided a high ethical standard is adhered to.
