To date, theinventory has been used as a guide to help instructors vary their classroom instruction to usemethods that will ultimately address all learning styles by cycling through instruction approaches[2, 4-9].Over the last two decades, a group of educational psychologists have attempted to refute thevalidity of learning styles in the design of instruction, stating that doing so is a detriment

A review of engineering identity synthesized common aspects that defineengineering as problem solving and knowledge in math and science [7] reflecting thetechnical focus. In light of these dominant narratives, there is ongoing work to disrupt thetechnicist identity and exclusionary culture of engineering to better reflect the multifacetedroles of engineers and the diverse populations they serve (see, for example, [8]). One framingto broaden the scope of what it means to be an engineer and do engineering is macroethics,the collective societal responsibility of engineers [9].MacroethicsRelative to other subjects, ethics has a shorter history in the engineering curriculum withformal inclusion

Research partnership is a non-traditionalapproach to help joint reflection and reciprocal learning between professionals (Eisen, 2001).Partnership with teachers for professional development has been found beneficial as it can allowcollaborative work in the classroom to be relevant to practice (Jung & Brady, 2016). This couldbe particularly useful for teaching in rural areas

In many schools there is an excessive emphasis on highly technical matters in engineering curricula, which excludes not only greater technical diversity but also the skills and knowledge of human affairs necessary in engineering practice.
