Using the interpersonal reactivity (IRR)model [1] of empathy’s dimensions (Figure 1), we created the Empathic Design TendencySurvey (Appendix A). These items were then evaluated with experts outside the project team andfound to be in alignment with the framework. Using this instrument, we collected survey data attwo time points: February 2019 and September 2019. While we collected survey data fromindividual students, we also developed a new metric to determine team emphatic potential,namely, “collective empathic tendency.” Self-oriented + Affective Other-oriented + Affective Empathic Distress (experiencing

Prior to the module, students wereintroduced to information on an existing environmental problem (i.e., the great Pacific garbagepatch) and answered homework questions on how traditional engineering interventions havebeen inadequate to solve the problem. The first part of the module focused on the materialproperties of single-use plastic straws that have resulted in their ubiquitous and environmentallydeleterious use. Students were then introduced to the Social Impact Analysis (SIA) tool,implemented in Microsoft Excel, which uses United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)and the Society of Environmental

In addition, we wrote and presented a conference paper in which we shared insights emerging from our work to design the toolkit (Turns and Roldan 2019). (3) Work with students. During this period, we completed an analysis of data we had collected during the first year (data about students engagements with reflection) and presented the resulting paper at ASEE. Relative to our prior work (in which we had heard a small amount of information from many students), we focused in this paper on gaining more information from a smaller number of students but looking to hear students’ stories about the range of activities they use, and the reactions and knowledge

Because the RED Consortium Meeting was the first time that RED teamsfunded in 2019 would meet other RED teams, we asked each of the new RED teams toprepare a Lightning Talk that would serve to introduce themselves and their projects.These talks were resented on the first day of the RED Consortium meeting thefollowing day. In order to give new RED teams the opportunity to rehearse their talks,each team presented their talk at the Start Up Session, with members of the REDPARteam offering constructive feedback. The

We alsointerviewed students who had large shifts in their attitudes about teaming and diversity orbelonging during the semester. We interviewed a total of 36 students. Interviews and surveycollection transpired from 2016-2019 across three different sites. At the first two sites, weconducted two 60-90 minute semi-structured interviews with each participant. The first interviewprotocol delved into students’ backgrounds, beliefs, and approaches to teaming. The secondinterview protocol focused on particular teaming experiences and interpersonal interactionsoccurring in their first-year engineering
interview and think-aloud sessions are also ongoing. Theresearch team holds bi-monthly meetings in which each member independently reviews eachtranscript and generates a set of themes related to the reading and writing practices and cognitiveframeworks used by each engineer. These emerging themes inform our interpretation of theevaluative frameworks that engineers use while they read and wrote genres in the context ofsocially situated activities. After independently reviewing each transcript, the team membersthen discussed the similarities and differences that were found among each other’s perspectives.Preliminary results from the initial round of coding with the mechanical/aerospace andelectrical/computer engineers were presented at the 2019 ASEE
