Paper ID #26007The Logic of Decision Making in Engineering Design: An Examination of De-sign Theories From A Logical Point of ViewDr. Soheil Fatehiboroujeni, Indiana-Purdue University Soheil FatehiBoroujeni received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Merced in 2018. As a postdoctoral researcher at Purdue University, School of Engineering Education, Soheil is working on a multi-institutional project characterizing governance processes related to change in engineering education, and pursuing other research interests in epistemology and design, among other philosophical topics in engineering

Nicole was one of 21 individuals who responded to this samplingsurvey to indicate her willingness to participate in the study.Mackenzie and Benjamin jointly interviewed Nicole at n location on her campus. Benjaminadopted a leading role in conducting the interview while Mackenzie asked questions in line withthe study’s objectives and within the flow of the interview. Benjamin and Mackenzie practicedthese interviewer roles in an earlier, unanalyzed pilot interview to ensure that their speaking andpresence was coordinated

(NYU), NY, USA. During his period at NYU, Dr. Rahman served as the lead robotics instructor for the Center for K-12 STEM education, and leaded the implementation of a large NSF-funded project entitled “DR K-12: Teaching STEM with Robotics: Design, Development, and Testing of a Research-based Professional Development Program for Teachers”. During that time, Dr. Rahman received license from the New York City Department of Education to conduct robot-based K- 12 STEM education research in different public schools across New York City, trained about 100 public school math and science teachers for robot-based K-12 STEM education, and reached more than 1000 K-12 students across New York City. He then worked as an assistant

student improvetheir 3D modeling skills, students complete bi-weekly labs, weekly homework assignments,three projects, and take the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associates (CSWA) exam. The bi-weeklylabs require students to produce a 3D CAD model of a part or assembly based on an engineeringdrawing. Labs generally take students less than 30 minutes to complete. The weekly homeworkassignments require the completion of tutorials and/or modeling parts or assemblies from thetextbook [2]. Weekly homework assignments consistent of 3-5 parts or assemblies that thestudent must create in the CAD software.Although assigning extensive opportunities to model helps with mastering 3D CAD software,efficiently grading the work is challenging.

. Framing is the set ofexpectations one has about a situation [21, 22]. In our study, some students framed their solutionas meeting the expectations of the instructor, while in other instances students discussed theirsolution as if they were analyzing a bridge that would be built in the real world. Similarly,Koretsky and Nolen found students discussing their projects either in the “school world” or the“engineering world” when examining chemical engineering middle year studio and senior designteams [23, 24], and McNeill et al. found similar results where students distinguished between“classroom problems” and workplace problems” [25]. Gainsburg also found different ways thatstudents framed mathematics in engineering courses: from believing that every

projected average salary to be statistically different betweenthose who were formerly postdocs and those who did not obtain postdocs. The opportunity costof postdoc training in terms of salary also appears to vary across employment sectors, with thestakes particularly high for those eventually employed in industry. For PhDs who remain inacademia, time as a postdoc may improve early career earnings. Therefore, from the perspectiveof financial returns to doctoral training, it is important for engineering PhDs to consider the long-term career prospects in different sectors. For engineering PhDs with career interests in non-academic employer sectors, awareness of the potential delay in salary growth associated with thelow payment during postdoc

). In all, we intend from the findings of this study to generate a set of principles thatteachers can consider when they are creating learning environments in which their studentsengage in engineering. Teachers might engage students in socially-situated activities that aresimilar in purpose to those of engineers. Within this context, they can provide their students withdevelopmentally-appropriate genres that are similar to those engineers read; and they can modelfor their students how to evaluate those genres like engineers evaluate texts. On a pragmaticlevel, ultimately, we also intend for this project to result in instructional materials, including setsof texts for students and guiding teachers’ materials (e.g., discussion prompts) that might

also based on its perceivedrelevance toward my research topic, as previously discussed. If I’m working on non-disability-related projects, I feel it less salient and relevant to my research and will not disclose. However,in my current research area of exploring identity formation in undergraduate civil engineeringstudents who experience disability, I often feel the need to disclose my disability, particularly asa way to justify my interactions with participants and key themes that I pull from my data. While the decision to disclose may sound straightforward and steadfast, it can be quitecomplex, confusing, and risky. Not only is positionality a statement to orient the reader towardyour research lens, but it also identifies an identity

It is also a way to seethe linkage between the courses [39].3.4 Future PlanThe plan of this project is to assess the impact of i) using VR technology to teach IE conceptsand ii) using VR teaching modules to integrate the IE curriculum. The assessment involves twocohorts: control and intervention groups. The authors are currently collecting data for the controlgroup. Once the VR module is fully developed, relevant data will be collected and analyzed withrespect to the control group. The assessment instruments involve self-report surveys andknowledge tests
