While the pandemic created many barriers to the capstonedesign experience, it also provided a substantial real-world constraint for students to assess andaddress. In this respect, the pandemic was an unanticipated learning opportunity for students tolearn how to improvise, innovate, and adapt over the course of their design experience.A limited number of studies have examined how the capstone design experience changed duringthe pandemic. Jamieson reflected on the challenges during the pandemic and strategies used topreserve the quality of the students’ learning experience in a chemical engineering capstone, asenior design course and a transdisciplinary freshman course.

reflected on their concepts acrossboth concept generation sessions. Our research goals were to identify how designers consideredpeople and whether their process changed with the request to explicitly include drawings ofpeople within sketches. The conceptual sketches and associated “think-aloud” transcripts werethen analyzed to determine the impact of the representational prompt on engineers’ thoughtprocesses and design outcomes. With a simple intervention to represent people within sketches,we found several positive effects on how engineers considered people during design.BackgroundHuman-centered design (HCD) has been an important approach in engineering since the 1980s.This framework is commonly used in design when solutions to problems are

The relations reflect the surveyresponses of the designers and are directional and of equal magnitude. The disconnect of nodesthree, four, and five to the other designers in this DSM indicates a weak connection of the networkat this particular threshold and function [61].

Hands-on learning also proves to be challenging, such as medical studentsreporting that “online classes proved to be an excellent opportunity for theoretical subjects likebasic sciences but not suitable for clinical subjects like clinical skills” [4]. These challenges areall reflected in engineering design education, where social group dynamic is vital for projectsuccess, and the hands-on component cannot be conveyed as effectively online.Many of the concerns around the impact of online learning on students and the effectiveness ofcontent delivery for engineering design education can be addressed with

Collectively, our findings are in line with caring pedagogy research [39] thatreports increased motivation and learning outcomes on the part of students when they perceivefaculty as caring about them by getting to know students and providing constructive feedback[40]. This line of work suggests that part of why learner-centered instruction is effective is thatstudents increase in their engagement and see more opportunities to learn, such as from feedbackand from peers. Faculty who care and hold high-but-reachable expectations for students may seesimilar expectations and behaviors reflected by students.AcknowledgmentsThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1623105.

Second, it allowed the professor the opportunity to understand which students required moreindividual support and design coaching in the classroom. Those that were independently problem solvingand constructing could be left to their own devices. Those that were stuck were offered more guidance andprompting to help move the activity along. If the activity were done in teams, those that struggled to getstarted might not get the opportunity to independently construct limited fidelity prototypes due to the natureof team dynamics and would miss this critical part of the design realization

Writing in the year of 2020, when engineering education yet againfaces looming paradigm shift driven in part by a global pandemic and major powers’ adjustmentin attitudes and strategies to globalization, we attempt to reassess visions of “engineers for thefuture,” as reflected through policy discourses in the United States and China, two major playersin global engineering education. For this purpose, we present a careful reading of recent policydocuments published by the US National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and the ChineseMinistry of Education (MoE).The NAE (2018) report Understanding the Educational and Career Pathways of Engineersresulted from a study commissioned by the Academy to “understand

Also, it shouldbe noted that job description may not provide a complete reflection of the type of work an engineer does onthe job. The nature of the work conducted by engineers evolves as time and projects go on, meaning theactual activities of a practicing engineering may be very different from those that were written into the jobadvertisement. In addition, the rate of occurrence of activities within a job posting is unlikely to reflect theproportion of time spent on each activity by the engineer.

For example, 21.3% of students prioritized individual accountability intraditional learning while only 14.1% did so in remote learning. This downward trend is similarto what students said about their lab groups. With regard to individual accountability, whilestudents made more frequent comments about interpersonal and social skills in remote learningwith regard to their lab groups, the increase in these types of comments in their study groups wasmuch larger. Students in remote learning mentioned interpersonal and social skills with respectto their peer groups at over twice the frequency (22.7%) of students in

It is also a time when students’ beliefs of engineering andits education are reinforced (Hutchison et al., 2006). The content and experiences offered aspart of these courses present an opportunity to support students in developing their beliefs andattitudes towards engineering. We teach students that engineers design, apply math andscience to solve problems, program, make decisions, have different areas of specialty, but oftenmiss or convey only implicitly that engineering at its core is a human endeavor, one that ispracticed for people, with people, and as people (Fila et al., 2014).

These difficulties were compounded for Asian international students by a rise inanti-Asian sentiment and hate crimes in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The advice theyprovide, however, aligns with dominant postfeminist narratives and cultural ideas about howwomen can achieve success in the contemporary workplace. They emphasize the need forwomen to overcome any other issues or obstacles they may encounter as individuals (whether ornot they perceive of them as being related to gender).

While these academic roles may align with adoctoral students’ interests, they may also be strictly defined by the institution that the doctoralstudent serves. For example, a doctoral student may or may not be interested in being in the roleof an educator but may have to be a TA as part of their graduate program.
