We felt thiswould provide them an opportunity to reflect on engineering ethics. They gave 5-minute pitchesof their solutions, following similar guidelines for the previous pitch.Data collection and analysisStudents

Pitts and McGonagle state, engineers should be “ableto explain point of view, approach those with differing backgrounds and cultures; assess theextent to which you are understood… Appreciate, engage, and connect with those who havedifferent perspectives." These researchers reported a 100% greater improvement in GPA post-study abroad

question about why they are interested in the research experience. A primary component of our initial selection rubric was the number of science and math courses they had taken and how they had performed in those classes. In year one of this project, we required that students must have taken a year of college calculus, physics, and chemistry to participate. However, we quickly observed that most of our applicants did not have these courses. Therefore, we modified our selection criteria so that we would not overlook students with great potential. The new rubric puts more weight on the teacher recommendation with an emphasis on work ethic and “grit”, students’ grades in the science classes they had taken, and their veteran status. Of the

In addition to the assignments in this course, engineering faculty in the disciplines created linked activities in the senior project courses that allow application of these concepts to the students’ engineering disciplines. This class takes a case study approach so that students might appreciate the social, ethical and cultural perspectives of engineering. Over the course of the year, there are case studies that specifically address each student learning objective (SLO) in Areas S and V. In the pilot year (2013-2014), the GE faculty created a structure for the modules so that additional faculty members could create new case studies in the future, so that the course is

Small numbers ofstudents can be viewed as “anomalies” not representative of the whole and dismissed.Additionally, statistical power to detect differences or understand students at multiple intersectionsis impossible to obtain in smaller datasets. Finally, these small numbers of students can bedisaggregated from the larger dataset in ways that re-identify participants and make their responsesnon-anonymous, which have ethical implications [8].Qualitative research often focuses on rich and thick descriptions of students’ individualexperiences that can be used as powerful examples [8].

The NAEhighlighted the following attributes as essential for an Engineer of 2020: strong analytical skills,practical ingenuity, creativity, communication, business and management knowledge, leadership,high ethical standards and professionalism, dynamism, agility, resilience, flexibility, and thehabit of lifelong learning. While developing these qualities may seem a lofty feat to accomplish,these benchmarks for success in engineering introduced the need to generate alternative teachingenvironments in education that foster opportunities for a student-engineer to acquire this diverseskill set (Zabudsky

Assuming GPA draws on verbal, mathematical and visuospatialabilities, at a cognitive level, and on several emotional and affective aspects such asmotivation, work ethic and so on, there are at least two possible explanations for thisobservation: (i) the male and female suite of cognitive abilities remain unchanged relative toeach other but females compensate for other reasons or (ii) females improve their math andverbal abilities to reach parity with men and all other things are equal.

One of the definingcharacteristics of design is that there is rarely a single correct answer to an engineering problembut, rather, an optimal or acceptable solution leading to a final design, presented as the bestpossible balance between technical as well as non-technical constraints. These non-technicalconstraints, typically involve: economics, politics, social and environmental issues, ethics, etc.And, while professional practitioners generally accept this understanding of design, students, byenlarge, tend to interpret the engineering design process as an unambiguous and clearly definedprocess supported by rigidly applied principles and processes of “the scientific method.”Students’ vision

We felt the discrepancies between STEM-H discipline research and education research (e.g. natural laws vs. conceptual frameworks,feasibility and ethicality of controlled studies in education), would be the main source of initialconfusion for participants. We hypothesized that the participants would benefit from anintroduction to foundational education research ideas, and we addressed these discrepancies thatlead to tensions due to differing views and values of research among the discipline-basedcommunities. We sought to unpack and diffuse tensions by emphasizing that anywhere on thelandscape, valuable research means appropriately
