Speaking to the “misalignment between engineeringeducation and practice” the author makes clear that a “Technical problem-solving model cannotexplain practice” and that engineers can only change the world “. . . if they also deliver theartefacts represented by their problem solutions and designs.”Engineering education urgently needs to revisit how Science, Engineering and Technology areordered and especially how practicing engineers are essential to R&D programs.

knowledge/skills in pursuit ofaddressing a problem/need is a fundamentally ethical act. It is ethics first and engineeringsecond. Ethics is not an afterthought, but neither is engineering. Ethics is found in the richexperiences of relating to ourselves and to others. In this framing, ethics is about living and, inliving, responding with care and an inquiring mind to the exigencies born from relationality.Engineering is one mode of responding to life lived in a world of interaction. Through a livedethics, we (re)fashion ourselves, others, and the world in which we dwell.

However, she had a dream to go to medical school one day, and engineering seemed like a perfect way to combine these two passions. As someone who was pre-med, Abby thought chemical engineering would provide insight into the solutions that doctors end up prescribing to their patients, and that it would give her opportunities outside medicine if she ever changed her mind. Abby also had a cousin who got her bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering and then went off to become a doctor. Abby always thought that it was

However, engineers feel there is sometimes a“disconnect between engineers and the public” where “engineers don’t listen” [37 p. 15]. Thisrepresents motivation for improved education of engineers.Listening has been classified into a variety of types, such as active, accurate, contextual, critical,empathetic, and mindful [4, 13, 38]. Mindful listening has been encouraged for project managers[13] and healthcare professionals [39], focusing on being fully present, an awareness of bothoneself and others, engaging with the speaker, avoiding judgement of the speaker, and carefullyobserving and

engineering faculty found problem-solving, akin to criticalthinking, to be the single most important competency for engineers [39]. Critical thinking isassociated with many aspects of ABET Student Outcomes. Not only does it address problemsolving and analysis, but the process of argumentation cultivates communication skills that areessential to collaboration. Being self-critical keeps one open-minded to learn and solve problemsboth alone and in groups. Lastly, the process and spirit of inquiry is a necessary driver in self-directed, lifelong learning [19]. Despite its accepted importance, engineering graduatesconsistently fall short in critical thinking skills according to employers [29], [39], [40].According to a 2019 literature review, established

The ability to visualize and manipulate objects in one’s mind isa vital skill in engineering [1]. Previous studies have shown that accurately visualizing objects in3D improves spatial understanding [2], which has been associated with success in engineeringprograms. However, students often tend to struggle with 3D visualization due to a lack oftraining [3]. One option for improving visualization and spatial skills is providing opportunitiesfor students to interact with handheld models
