Science. Focusing on making sure curriculum and pedagogy are tight. And integrating informal pedagogy into that as well for example experiential learning and Co-op experience. But at the end of my first year my ideal position turned into the president of a university. It was like, “Go, broke, or go home.” When it comes to the initial purpose and the drive. I still have that, because I remember when we started the program they asked for a little bio, for them to post on Twitter. They were like, “Oh, just tell us about yourself, and why you decided to pursue a PhD program with us.” And I wrote that I want people to have that “Ah-ha!” moment. So, the drive and the purpose of me wanting to stay in

an experimental, innovativegraduate curriculum that fosters engineering students’ capacities for reflection. Reflectivethinking is an increasingly necessary skill in the complex work of engineers, who need toconsider various contextual factors such as local, social issues, environmental impacts, andsustainable, long-term outcomes when addressing multifaceted problems of global significance.The training of engineers has traditionally focused on technical rationality at the expense ofpreparing students for the complexity of professional practice in the real-world (Schön, 1983,1987). Our premise, consistent with Eisner (1986) and Bertram (2019), is that incorporating thearts and humanities into the engineering curriculum will facilitate and

However, this is dependent on the formation ofeffective student teams which may involve more thought on the part of the instructor. There are limitations of the active learning implementation method and this assessmentstudy that should be noted. Specifically, the addition of in-class collaborative learning activitieswithout any out-of-class videos to offset instructional content necessitated a slight reduction inthe level of detail covered during lectures.
