The new PEOswill result in a modern CE/ENVE curriculum that helps students develop the knowledge andskills needed to address the contemporary challenges facing the world.1.0 IntroductionThe bulk of engineering education upholds a narrow technical focus [1], [2]. Even thoughengineering products have consequences on society and the environment, engineering coursesseldom provide students with a deep understanding of the complex societal and environmentaldimensions of engineering practice [1], [3]. The insufficient education on matters of social andenvironmental justice can compromise the ability of engineering graduates to adequately servethe needs of their stakeholders, especially vulnerable communities.

kindsof discourse can lead to different ideation outcomes. We recruited mechanical engineering studentsfrom a large public university to participate in brainstorming sessions typical of preliminary orconceptual design phases. Each group was given the same task of collaborating for 45 minutes tocreate as many ideas as possible for wheelchair-accessible playground equipment and experiences.We combined existing research with emergent findings from our own data to develop a codebookthat characterizes the range of “discursive moves” that engineering students use duringcollaborative brainstorming. Our codebook identified 11 different kinds of utterances that occurredduring conceptual brainstorming activities. These codes capture instances in which
