The first course (exploration) is based mostly on lecturesand students have to conduct only small cases studies. At the end of the course there is a finalexam. In the second course (specialization), there is a mix between theory and practice.Students attend lectures on a weekly basis but they also have to conduct one or two smallprojects with a group

The different experiences of first-generationcompared to continuing-generation college students were further captured by interview questionsthat asked students to think back to experiences/activities they engaged in as children oradolescence and determine if they now see them as engineering related experiences. By askingstudents to reflect on the pre-college activities that fostered their interest in engineering, we wereable to understand the cultural and historical practices that brought them to seek an engineeringdegree. With this theme, we sought not to capture every micro experience students have had intheir life, rather obtain a general understanding of the

contexts [1], [2]. This study is part of a broadcurricular reform project in 11 core studio courses using assignments that support students’learning of engineering practice [3], [4]. The reform is motivated by research that relates thedevelopment of higher-level capabilities such as systems thinking, communication skills, ethicalstandards, and critical thinking to students’ success in the workforce [5]. It also addresses callsfor greater emphasis on complex, open-ended design problems reflecting work done byprofessional engineers [6].Such tasks contrast with more typical school worksheets that require an algorithmic applicationof course concepts, with an emphasis on reaching a single correct solution through an instructor-determined solution path

Questions and answers were created from the selected wordsand phrases and grouped based on the category under which they best fit (Section 4.3).

Manufacturingindustrial segments. For each industrial segment, two engineers were invited to engage in face-to-face qualitative interviews. Interview is one of the most important sources of evidences incase studies and is commonly found in this research design (Yin, 2017). At the time when theinterviews occurred, all participant engineers were working in senior leadership positions,ranging from managers to directors, and had between 15 and 34 years of professional experience.Purposeful and convenience sampling (Creswell, 2013) were utilized in the process of selectingthese engineers, since participants were identified from the alumni pool of Utah State University.In this study, interviews with practicing engineers were expected to reflect their

because culture influences what constitutesintelligence and intelligent acts [9, 10]. Indeed, conceptions of “smartness” in school often caterto analytical abilities, while ignoring other types of intelligence, such as creative or practicalabilities [11]. This emphasis on analytical abilities is magnified even further in engineeringschool, where math and engineering science dominate the curriculum. This cultural norm ofvaluing analytical intelligence above all else reflects white, middle class constructions ofintelligence. This reality contributes to the exclusionary narratives about who belongs inengineering as the qualities that are revered in academia (e.g., brilliance, rigor, seriousness,rationality, objectivity, etc.) are all traditionally

Following an ethnographic approach, he did not engage in any of the activities in which the students participated throughout the IDC and interacted with them only when observation alone did not provide data on instances he believed to be relevant to answering the overarching research question (e.g., when participants worked quietly, independently, or engaged in self-reflection).

This mechanism reduces the cognitive load of storing information and allows for greaterinformation processing capacity.When engaging in problem solving, experts have been shown to participate in systematic real-time “reasonability” checks, contrasted with novices who proceed to the end without taking timeto reflect [67]. This behavior of expert problem-solvers perfectly aligns with our definition ofengineering intuition as the ability to assess solutions. In real-world engineering, ill-definedproblems are of particular interest. Studies have shown that ill-defined problems are often notsolved systematically, but rather through reactionary, intuitive processes to navigate thedecisions of problem-solving [68].Motivation
