This is when electrically powered massproduction and the division of labor were established. The third industrial revolution, also calledthe digital revolution, took place between the 1960s and 1990s. The important change during thistime was the introduction of electronics and information technologies. Making use of new digitaltechnology, humanity began to automate manufacturing like never before. These three industrial revolutions led to Industry 4.0, which is all about cyber-physicalsystems. This is the linkage of real objects and people

My interpretation of the modelfor engineering practice appears below.The technical dimension includes material things and how they work. Some examples of entitiesin the technical domain are “knowledge, skill and technique; tools, machines, chemicals,liveware; resources, products and wastes” [p. 6]. From a disciplinary perspective, the technicaldomain is most strongly associated with STEM fields, so this is the domain with whichengineers are most familiar. In the most basic sense, the technical domain raises questions aboutwhat things are

In the fall of 2019,there were 381 engineering students registered in the course.

For example, while a technically-oriented course makes it morepractical to use a micro-insertion approach (e.g. [30]), developing an insider knowledge abouthow our courses are related to the rest of the curriculum may allow us to make an additionalconnection to ethics-related topics in other less technical

Depending on the course materials and contexts, instructors should be able to decide about the challenges posed by the use of AI tools. Grading is expected to be based on a fair assessment of learning. A reasonable instructor must decide whether to require students to cite the text generated by AI tools with appropriate citations and references as these practices are commonly required for grading assignments with standard references. If a student does not want to use AI tools for some reason, then the instructor may have to decide how to grade assignments completed with different options.

Transcending Layton’s and Alexander’sspecific attention to engineers, Larson’s historic analysis of professionalization traces thepolitical and economic processes through which medicine, engineering, and other occupationsorganized themselves to attain market power in the early to mid1800s [5].
