1 Influencing Elementary Students Perceptions about the Work of an Engineer Juliana Utley, Drew Gossen, and Toni Ivey Oklahoma State UniversityAbstractMost of pre-college engineering curricula is designed to increase students’ understanding ofengineering and change their perceptions about the work of engineers. The purpose of this studywas to explore students’ potential changes in perceptions of the work of engineers afterparticipating in Engineering is Elementary (EiE™) curriculum and instruction. While findingsrevealed a significant increase in students’ conceptions of

It is the inherent strength of this team that is oftenwhat makes a product commercially viable for clinical use, and sustainable. In industry, thesemultidisciplinary teams are often led by highly competent engineers. However, employers are inneed of engineering professionals with an interdisciplinary background, who understand how topractice their skill in the regulated environment.While engineering programs focus on instilling the technical skill in students, regulatoryknowledge and regulatory science, or the practice of regulation, has not been holisticallyintegrated into engineering curriculums

The intervention was not students’ only exposure to ESI; it was oneelement in a growing initiative towards ethics across the curriculum. The chemical andengineering department integrated ESI in multiple core courses including first-year introduction,junior design, and senior capstone design.The intervention was an in-class activity that explored hydraulic fracturing from differentperspectives. The intervention followed the same format in all three courses. Each 75-minuteclass period began with an introduction of the activity and series of pre-activity questions for

thatinterdisciplinary study grants students an increased ability to recognize preconceived biases andconsider alternative viewpoints—an extremely powerful tool when working with ethics [14].Research also demonstrates that interdisciplinarity enhances comfort with ambiguity andimproves critical thinking.[12, 13] Because interdisciplinarity emphasizes integration, it aids in the development ofcreativity: rather than focusing on fixed phenomena within a discipline, interdisciplinarityencourages students to make connections between distinct disciplines. With a focus onconnection-building, as opposed to knowledge acquisition of specific disciplinary skills andpractices, students are pushed to think creatively. Interdisciplinarity encourages interrogation

analysis scripting tool, such as R. Use of a scriptlanguage was a challenge on its own. CEE students are required to take an introductorycomputing class in the CS department, which currently covers coding in Python and MATLAB,but this class was not a pre-requisite for the ER&U class in the considered semester. Therefore,my assumption was that the student body of the class (similar to those in previous semesters) hadlimited coding experience. For this reason, R was introduced as an “smart app, useful toscientists and engineers” and it was integrated in a guided form, using base R functions, asneeded for class purposes. R is taught through its use for the purposes of the class, not as anindividual class topic.2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

But it just as much speaks to the value of engagementbeyond the walls of the university. Without some external engagement in the curriculum,projects and problems remain reason-based and/or hypothetical. For example, an imagined end-user does not speak back; however, someone with direct experience of an engineered technologymay have something to say about where problems within a given device lie.
