Although these kinds of interventions definitely have aplace in curriculum planning, in our view, they provide either too little or too much direction forengineering educators. In line with this thinking, we have identified two analytical models (theCollingridge Dilemma and the VDI model of competing and dependent values in technologyassessment) and exemplars from a body of literature (social science research) that could beincluded in or otherwise inform engineering curriculum design.4.1 The
