Society for Engineering Education, 2017How Role-Playing Builds Empathy and Concern for Social JusticeAbstractThis paper describes an experimental first-year, two-term course designed by aninterdisciplinary team of faculty from engineering, humanities, social science, andentrepreneurship and innovation. The first term of our course, “HumanitarianEngineering Past & Present: Worcester, 1885,” puts students in the roles of actual peopleliving in a turn-of-the-century industrial city in central Massachusetts. While immersingthemselves in the roles of engineers, industrialists, elected officials, workers, scientists,public health officials, inventors, and city residents, students learn and practiceengineering concepts (engineering design

This faculty development workshop alsoincluded the component of social aspect of learning with other faculty in a learning community,21where they learned new content and strategies, observed demonstrations of new strategies andthen integrated what they learned, and taught a brief excerpt of a lesson to their peers andreceived feedback from the community of learners.

However, someareas of concern arose, and three of them are directly related to the selection of design coursesfor the major. In order to address those issues, the faculty involved are still working on a varietyof design options for students, considering the opportunity for more breadth of design coverage(design courses in multiple design programs at Purdue University). Ultimately, the goal for theDCI student is not to create practicing designers, but to allow students to establish a commonvocabulary and shared viewpoint. This awareness

Society has become concerned about the issues of natural resourcedepletion and environmental degradation. Many businesses have responded to this awareness byproviding “greener” products and using “greener” processes. The environmental performance ofproducts and processes has become a key issue, which is why some companies are investigatingways to minimize their effects on the environment.

This new instructor orientation focuses on challenging student conceptions to achieve intellectual growth. We also explore shifts in conceptions of teachers, exploring the impact of the in- service pedagogy courses we have been delivering together with the other initiatives within the Faculty of Science and Technology which aim to equip academics with a richer pedagogical palette as they pursue their teaching and learning activities.

IntroductionThe benefits of mentoring as a form of faculty professional development are well established,and there are many different structures in which mentoring can occur. The most traditionalstructure is that of a formal mentoring program, pairing senior and junior faculty. Although thistraditional structure has many advantages, there is a hierarchy in the relationship that mayprevent the mentee (i.e., junior faculty member) from sharing important challenges and concerns,especially if the mentor is involved in key decisions such as tenure and promotion

In our work, we provide an approach for coursetransformation that is simple and effective with highly positive results that new faculty can easilyadopt and replicate in their respective engineering courses.2. Literature ReviewWhen considering the use of active learning, faculty members commonly have concerns aboutstudent acceptance, content coverage, preparation time, and logistics, and research has shownthat the likelihood of adoption of new, research-based instructional approaches is directly relatedto the ease of implementation (Prince et al., 2013).

Embracing faculty and other stakeholders asfull partners through a shared vision process is a proactive way to expose concerns and strategizeabout incentives for change adoption. While visioning for the change project might be a site ofcontestation and conflict (Hargrave and Van de Ven, 2006) which can be a barrier for the REDleaders’ success in instituting change, the process is also an opportunity for RED leaders, faculty,staff, and other stakeholders to dialogue

The purpose of the investigation was to determine whether or not faculty membersbelieve that cross-cultural training programs helped them to advance their skills while interactingwith culturally diverse background colleagues; and, to identify what behaviors and actionsfaculty need to exhibit in order to successfully collaborate with their colleagues in a cross-cultural environment within the educational setting. The positive experience from a good trainingprogram is key. Faculty members must be encouraged to explore interests in the differentcultures and new approaches for collaborating. The design and delivery methods of a cross-cultural training program are essential and should cover faculty concerns
