In brief, our initial findings suggest that (1) interest in engineering communication grewin tandem with the implementation of EC2000; (2) momentum built gradually between 2000 and2010 and more rapidly between 2010 and 2020; (3) meaningful

We begin by giving each attendee a team change wild card thatincludes a detailed description of a new member who joins their team. Attendees then place thisperson on the intersectionality wheel so that they can identify ways that this new member may bejoining from positions of power or oppression.

However, little research has focusedon the relationship between the availability of paid internships and the economy. There is plenty ofresearch available on job rates and the economy in general (BLS 2020), however there is no researchpublished that reflects the relationship between internships and the economy.

. Unfortunately,engineering educators generally find it difficult to foster critical thinking among their students.This work-in-progress paper describes a strategy to inculcate critical thinking ability inengineering graduates. Examples are taken from two core courses in the Materials andManufacturing stream.Several critical thinking models were explored, such as Gibbs’ reflective cycle model, Facione’smodel, Kronholm model, and King and Kitchener’s model. Paul and Elder’s (P-E) model forcritical thinking was found to be more suited for engineering. P-E model provides a good basisfor the way in which engineers think, and is especially suited for CT as it targets issues such ascreativity, design development, and professional and ethical issues.

This organic conversation was hard to replicate in an online environment. On thepositive side, geography no longer limited which sites and companies participated in industryvisits. Further, the virtual format pushed the focus of the “visit” from specifics of productionprocesses towards more personal reflections of the speaker’s career trajectory in engineering.This was especially relevant as many of the speakers were Louisiana Tech alumni.

argue, “theanalogy between ethical problems and design problems is also very much connected with virtueethics and the proper reflection on the nature of engineering as a human activity” [19]. This isfurther compounded by Roeser’s observation that design is not value-free; thus, design forcesengineering students to confront their values [20].Also discussed in the literature is the timing and frequency with which students should bechallenged with ethical situations within their engineering course of study. In some programs,the discussion of ethics has been relegated to a capstone design course with a “one and done”approach.
